Biomass represents an important source of renewable and sustainable energy production. Its increasing consumption is mainly related to the increase in global energy demand and fossil fuel prices, but also to a lower environmental impact compared to non-renewable fuels. These factors take RED II directives into consideration. In the past, forestry interventions were the main supply source of biomass, but in recent decades two others sources have entered the international scene. These are dedicated energy crops and agricultural residues, which are important sources of biomass for biofuel and bioenergy. Below, we consider four main value chains: ? Oil crops: Oil production from non-food oilseed crops (such as camelina, Crambe, safflower, castor, cuphea, cardoon, etc.), oil extraction, and oil utilization for fuel production. ? Lignocellulosic crops: Biomass production from perennial grasses (miscanthus, giant reed, switchgrass, reed canary grass, etc.), woody crops (willow, poplar, Robinia, eucalyptus, etc.), and agricultural residues (pruning, maize cob, maize stalks, wheat chaff, sugar cane straw, etc.), considering two main transformation systems: 1. Electricity/heat production 2. Second-generation ethanol production ? Carbohydrate crops (cereals, sweet sorghum, sugar beets, sugar cane, etc.) for ethanol production. ? Fermentable crops (maize, barley, triticale, Sudan grass, sorghum, etc.) and agricultural residues (chaff, maize stalks and cob, fruit and vegetable waste, etc.) for production of biogas and/or biomethane. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $aagricultural production 610 $aagricultural residues 610 $aagriculture residues 610 $aagroenvironmental mapping 610 $aash content 610 $abio-based supply chains 610 $abiocommodity 610 $abioenergy 610 $abiofuels 610 $abiomass 610 $abiomass quality 610 $abioresource 610 $acable yarder 610 $acalorific value 610 $aCentral Italy 610 $acereals 610 $acircular bioeconomy 610 $aCO2 emission 610 $acombine harvesting 610 $acommodity 610 $aCorine Land Cover 610 $acrop by-products 610 $adigestate 610 $adry matter loss 610 $aeconomic analysis 610 $aenergy crop 610 $aenergy efficiency 610 $aenergy return on investment 610 $aenvironmental impact 610 $aenzymatic hydrolysis 610 $aeucalyptus 610 $aEucalyptus 610 $aexternalities 610 $afirewood logs 610 $aforecasting 610 $afuelwood 610 $agenotype × site interaction 610 $agreenhouse gas emissions 610 $aharvest index 610 $aharvesting 610 $aharvesting loss 610 $aharvesting methods 610 $aharvesting system 610 $ahigh-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis 610 $ahog fuel 610 $ahydrothermal pretreatment 610 $aintegrated biomass logistical center 610 $aJatropha curcas L. 610 $aland suitability 610 $alife cycle assessment 610 $alignocellulosic biomass 610 $alower heating value 610 $amaize cob 610 $aMiscanthus x giganteus 610 $amixed integer programming model 610 $amodelling 610 $amoisture content 610 $anew varieties 610 $anitrogen content 610 $aoil crops 610 $aolive groves 610 $apine plantations 610 $aPoland 610 $apopulus 610 $apruning 610 $apruning harvesting 610 $apruning supply chain 610 $arenewable energy 610 $arenewable energy sources 610 $aSalix 610 $ashort rotation coppice 610 $aslope 610 $asoil organic carbon 610 $aspatial analysis 610 $astaple foods 610 $astationary chipper 610 $astorage of fine wood chips 610 $astorage system 610 $astraw 610 $asugar yield 610 $asuitable areas 610 $asulphur 610 $asulphur content 610 $asustainable production 610 $athermophysical and chemical features 610 $athreshing 610 $atime study 610 $atree whole stem 610 $atriticum 610 $aweed seed 610 $awheat 610 $awheat chaff 610 $awillow biomass 610 $awillow biomass production 610 $awoody biomass 610 $awork performance 610 $awork productivity 610 $ayield energy value 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aPari$b Luigi$4edt$01328660 702 $aPari$b Luigi$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557153303321 996 $aRenewable Energy Production from Energy Crops and Agricultural Residues$93038791 997 $aUNINA
