Implications of Modern Technologies on Bioenergy, Bioproducts, and Environmental Sustainability

Modern technologies for bioenergy and bioproduct production, such as algae cultivation, anaerobic digestion, biorefineries, bioplastics, biofuels, and biochemicals, respectively, have the potential to provide renewable and sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels and traditional petroleum-based products. Moreover, these technologies offer a range of opportunities to reduce carbon footprint across various sectors, from energy and materials to transportation and computing. This study reviews the advantages and challenges of modern technologies for bioenergy and bioproduct production and assesses their potential for scalability and commercialization. It evaluates the environmental impacts of these technologies, including their carbon footprint, land use, water usage, and waste management. The results of this study highlight the importance of considering environmental sustainability in developing and deploying modern technologies for bioenergy and bioproduct production. Research and development are needed to optimize the performance and sustainability of these technologies and to find ways to integrate them into existing systems to support environmental sustainability.
