The Alpena biorefinery plant in the USA. A biorefinery is a refinery that converts biomass to energy and other beneficial byproducts (such as chemicals). The International Energy Agency Bioenergy Task 42 defined biorefining as "the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of bio-based products (food, feed, chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (biofuels, power and/or heat)".

Animal feed is an important input to animal agriculture, and is frequently the main cost of the raising or keeping of animals. Farms typically try to reduce cost for this food, by growing their own, grazing animals, or supplementing expensive feeds with substitutes, such as food waste like spent grain from beer brewing .
Ether analogues of triglycerides: 1-alkyldiacyl-sn-glycerols (alkyldiacylglycerols) are found in significant proportions in marine animals. [5] Other ether lipids: a number of other lipids not belonging to any of the classes above contain the ether linkage. For example, seminolipid, a vital part of the testes and sperm cells, has a ether ...
Eucalyptol (also called cineole) is a monoterpenoid colorless liquid, and a bicyclic ether. [1] It has a fresh camphor-like odor and a spicy, cooling taste. [1] It is insoluble in water, but miscible with organic solvents. Eucalyptol makes up about 70–90% of eucalyptus oil.
Most animal feed is from plants, but some manufacturers add ingredients to processed feeds that are of animal origin. The worldwide animal feed trade produced 1.245 billion tons of compound feed in 2022 according to an estimate by the International Feed Industry Federation, [ 1 ] with an annual growth rate of about 2%.
Biofuels are biomass-derived fuels from plants, animals, or waste; depending on which type of biomass is used, they could lower CO 2 emissions by 20–98% compared to conventional jet fuel. [67] The first test flight using blended biofuel was in 2008, and in 2011, blended fuels with 50% biofuels were allowed on commercial flights.
Enteric fermentation was the second largest anthropogenic source of methane emissions in the United States from 2000 through 2009. [7] In 2007, methane emissions from enteric fermentation were 2.3% of net greenhouse gases produced in the United States at 139 teragrams of carbon dioxide equivalents (Tg CO 2) out of a total net emission of 6087.5 Tg CO 2.
