Summary The purpose of this paper is to investigate the perspective of using wood waste, especially the one that resulted from the construction and demolition activities, to produce sustainable bioenergy. The context of this research is characterized by a more accelerated need for development, a growing need for energy to fuel all human activities, and a greater awareness of the pressure on the environment and the negative effects produced. One of the major challenges for environmental protection is the issue of mitigating CO2 emissions, and among the biggest contributors to the CO2 emissions is the construction industry. Given the current rhythm of society development, a decrease in construction activities is not possible so a solution can be better management of the waste produced in various stages. If the need for better waste management is joined with the need for more sustainable energy, then using waste to produce bioenergy seems like a good solution. This study focuses mainly on wood waste and to respond to the research purpose it uses bibliometric literature search, scientometric analysis, and in‐depth discussions. The data were obtained by interrogating the ISI Web of Science database using the keywords “bioenergy”, “wood waste” and “construction and demolition” as search criteria. The extraction of data was done using the PRISMA method and processed with VOSviewer and Bibliometrix software. The processing of the data was done so to obtain information related to the importance of the research topic given by the number of publications, the most studied topics revealed by a keywords co‐occurrence analysis and a trend topic plot, as well as the world scientific productions on the studied topics. The main results indicate a significant increase, in the last years, of the interest in the studied topics, all over the world. Wood waste is considered as a direct combustion fuel or as a raw material for components of fuels used to produce energy, as well as components for new building materials. Given the limitations of other renewable energy sources, wood biomass is a subject that must be considered more in the future. The use of wood waste as biomass for the production of bioenergy can be a very good solution that will bring the advantage of both ensuring a renewable source of energy and at the same time decreasing the impact of the building industry on the environment.

“…However, only a few works describing the state of the art referring the biogas production in the Russian Federation can be found up to now in the scientific databases [22]. Preliminary results on topics connected with biogas production modeling were published [23][24][25][26], as well as biogas potential of agriculture was evaluated for the Tambov region of the Russian Federation [27] by the authors of this study. However, as information about biogas from agricultural feedstock in Russia is still scarce, this paper is to "bridge the gap" by referring biogas production modeling for a typical Russian farm.…”

A simulation method (SM), linear programming method (LPM), project evaluation methods (PEMs), and whole farm modeling (WFM) were applied to analyze the investment appeal of a biogas project on a Russian farm. The biogas project was evaluated for constant input parameters. The project efficiency evaluation procedure was elaborated to evaluate and maximize biogas investment project efficiency. The procedure to evaluate the project efficiency includes defining the optimal state of the farm for the situations “with project” and “without project.” The main elements for optimization are the equipment for anaerobic digestion, substrate blend structure, fertilizing plan, cost plan, and farm production structure. The optimization was fulfilled by simulation modeling (SM) and LPM. The situations “with project” and “without project” were compared by using PEMs, the main indicators of project efficiency: net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), payback period (PBP), and profitability index (PI). The optimal substrate blend structure was defined by the direct search method (DSM) to select the probe providing the highest NPV afterward. The procedure to maximize biogas project efficiency was applied to justify the benefits of biogas production on the farm under corresponding conditions and to work out the recommendations for businesses and municipalities.

Anaerobic digestion of vegetable waste is a viable approach for sustainable waste management. However, the process requires optimization. Using batch anaerobic reactor with cabbage waste as fermentation material, the potential and characteristics of methane production during anaerobic digestion of vegetable waste at five different temperatures were investigated. The analysis revealed that the cumulative gas production increased with rising temperature, and was 528.33 mL at 30 ℃; 927.5 mL at 35 ℃; 955 mL at 40 ℃; 1017.5 mL at 45 ℃; and 1075 mL at 50 ℃; the cumulative methane production at the five temperatures was 233.18 mL, 569.14 mL, 597.62 mL, 437.88 mL, and 621.65 mL, respectively, with the lowest production at 45 ℃. Methane production rates per total solid content were 97.69 mL/g, 238.43 mL/g, 250.37 mL/g, 183.44 mL/g, and 260.43 mL/g, accordingly. Methane production rates per volatile solid content were 180.00 mL/g, 439.34 mL/g, 461.33 mL/g, 338.02 mL/g, and 479.88 mL/g, respectively. Overall, methane generation during anaerobic digestion of vegetable waste at 45 ℃ was relatively low, with the optimal reaction temperature of 35 ℃. The study provides theoretical basis for efficient vegetable waste utilization and industrialization of related applications.
