Abstract

The growing concern for the environment has forced industries to explore sustainable and eco-friendly approaches to generate resources, one of them being biorefineries, which turn biomass into value-added products. Biorefineries emerge as a potential solution, offering green and circular economies by way of substituting the usage of fossil fuels and by production of other value added products from the residues from agricultural, food and other industries. Just like any industry, they look to update to recent technologies, such as Industry 4.0, representing the fourth industrial revolution. Industry 4.0 consists of Cyber-Physical systems that enhance operations through automation, detection of risks and failures, data analysis, etc., using tools such as Big Data Analysis, The Internet of Things, and Artificial Intelligence. Despite the promising outlook, several challenges are there to overcome. High investments, low global competition, price fluctuation, uncertain Return of Investment, innovative processes, etc., are some of the economic challenges. Social acceptance, land usage, stakeholders, policies, and selecting the indicated research areas and staff training, may be some of the social and organizational challenges. In this chapter, those challenges, as well as the opportunity areas for a swift and effective transition toward sustainable and technologically advanced practices are discussed.
