Energy in the world: Contribution of renewables
Only biomass provides a short term source of fuels for the transportation sector

Introduction
Current ethanol from sugar cane or corn and biodiesel from vegetable oils compete with the food market.
Governmental policies support the production of lignocellulosic based biofuels and the reuse of wastes and new sources (algae)

Introduction
The main concerns in biofuel industry are
energyand water consumption [2,3,4].

Introduction
The main concern in biofuels industry is the energy efficiency of the biofuel.
C th l d d t t b d d th th itCorn ethanol was deemed to consume more energy to be produced than the one itcould generate, [2]
Energy consumption optimization is quite straightforward due to the high cost of energy

Introduction
Water consumption has become a major concern in process industry due to theincrease in the demand as a result of the growth of population and developmentaround the world [5,6]
Two‐thirds of the world population will face water stress by year 2025

Introduction
Water consumption in corn ethanol plants [7]:From 3 to 15 gal water/gal ethanolTh b t ibl l 2 85 l t / l th lThe best possible value 2.85 gal water/gal ethanol Mean industrial value 3.4 gal water/gal ethanol
If we use lignocellulosic raw materials [7]If we use lignocellulosic raw materials [7] 6 to 9.8 galwater/gal ethanol for switchgrass1.94‐2 galwater/gal ethanol for hybrid poplar
Biodiesel production requires [8]1 to 3 galwater/gal biodiesel
The low price of water makes it difficult to take into account in a cost function

Method
We propose a two stage method [2] for the optimization of both:
1.‐Energy optimization: Superstructure and parameter optimizationincluding economic evaluation to select the flowsheet out of a large numberof alternatives and the main operating conditions
2.‐Water optimization:We design the optimal water network [3,4].2. Water optimization:We design the optimal water network [3,4].

Conclusions
‐‐Biomass and waste are promising raw material for biofuels.
‐‐The range of biofuels is broad: hydrogen, bioethanol, biodiesel, green gasoline and diesel, biomethanol….
‐‐Mathematical programming techniques offer a powerful tool to synthesize bioprocesses to make them economically attractive and environmentally friendly.
‐‐It is feasible to produce second generation of biofuels but p gfurther development is required in purification and reaction technologies to increase water recycle and reuse and increase the yield of the processesthe yield of the processes.
