“…In the past several years, some U.S. states and municipalities have passed laws requiring donation, recycling, or other forms of landfill diversion for food and organic wastes ( Bolden et al., 2019 ). These efforts are anticipated to eventually expand food waste treatment infrastructure and capacity while simultaneously generating ancillary resources, such as biogas and electricity from waste-to-energy systems ( Ebner et al., 2018 ). Realizing the potential of such systems can be supported by further policies that set forth economic incentives for firms to produce bio-products from organic waste ( De Clercq et al., 2017 ) or provide capital grants to lower upfront infrastructure costs ( Shahid and Hittinger, 2021 ).…”

“…Further, traditional management of food waste, primarily through landfilling in the U.S., leads to climate impacts associated with the release of carbon dioxide and methane ( Bernstad et al., 2016 ; Bernstad and la Cour Jansen, 2012 ). However, mitigation of these impacts is possible through alternative food recovery pathways, including rescue and redirection of high quality food surplus ( Reynolds et al., 2015 ) or recycling or composting wasted food to recover the energy and nutrients it contains ( Ebner et al., 2018 ).…”

“…Downstream processing of ethanol requires solid separation and purification which can be analysed in distillation and dehydration. Distillation is considered as an energy-intensive process and accounts for approximately 40% of the energy demand of the process [40,41]. Normally, two different columns are used in the distillation process: a stripper column, in which the ethanol is separated from solids and non-volatile compounds and a rectification column, where ethanol is concentrated near to the azeotropic point.…”
