“…To compute the results for the economic performance of the process, the costs of raw materials, products, and utilities are obtained as shown in Table 2, where the costs of utilities correspond to the ones provided by Aspen. According to Restrepo-Serna et al [20], the cost of 0.022 USD/kg considered in Table 2 for avocado peel and seed corresponds to an estimated transport cost considering transport in a six-axle truck over 20 km. This means that the proposed biorefinery is assumed to be located in avocado-producing regions, where it is possible to take advantage of avocado waste biomass in the form of avocado peel and seed to produce valuable products.…”

“…The process for the valorization of avocado waste biomass is designed to have the capacity to process the mass flow rate of avocado peel and seed that corresponds to 10 ton/h of avocado [19], considering the average values of the mass fraction of peel and seed equal to 11% and 17%, respectively [20], which means that it processes 1.1 ton/h of avocado peel and 1.7 ton/h of avocado seed. According to Restrepo-Serna et al [20], there exist at least three departments in Colombia (Antioquia, Caldas, and Tolima) where the avocado production of each one of these departments would allow supplying the required mass flow rate of avocado peel and seed for the proposed process. Hence, the required flow rate of avocado peel and seed can be provided without the need to mix these raw materials with other types of waste.…”

“…Therefore, authors have focused on valorization of both peel and pulp wastes by their subsequent co-liquefaction to develop a strategy and established technique that possibly could be adopted and implemented by C. limetta juice producing industries to resolve the issue of waste generation. Also, an extensive literature review [46][47][48][49] demonstrated that co-liquefaction of C. limetta peel and pulp as well as their detailed product analysis has not been studied to date, although liquefaction of individual peel and juice-extracted pulp of C. limetta was recently studied by the authors. 50 Thus, this study analyzes the co-liquefaction of C. limetta peel and pulp waste in hydrogen-donating methanol solvent, with subsequent product analysis and characterization.…”
