Fifth Latin American Congress on Biorefineries
Concepción, Chile
Biorefineries are an alternative to the processing of oil and its derivatives. Their development offers new alternatives for the use of forest, agricultural and algal biomass. This in turn provides exciting opportunities to generate differentiated products with a low ecological footprint and widespread market acceptance. After years of scientific and technological research, industrial applications are […]
