“…Elyamny et al (2022) analyzed the catalytic process for the transformation of agro-industrial waste to bioethanol in the pre-treatment stage, adopting the production of bioethanol from the concept of biorefinery, taking into account the processes that are carried out in the ago-industrial sector (Melendez et al, 2022). Adiya et al (2022) determined the production of bioethanol through various agroindustrial residues and compared its properties, biofuel production potential, and biochemicals from fruit waste, taking the composition of the waste and the high production of fruit waste into account (Stanisić et al, 2022). The generation of energy or biofuels from agro-industrial waste can bring economic and environmental benefits, as it is possible to reduce energy consumption in the industry itself using optimization techniques.…”

Seeking energy alternatives that are friendly to the environment without compromising the growth of society is becoming more widespread. Biofuels from biomass processing are a promising path toward the development of a biomass industry and the early replacement of fossil fuels. The purpose of this work is to determine the feasibility of generating biofuels through the use of agro-industrial waste through a mathematical model for the optimization of the supply chain for the production of biofuels from waste generated by the food processors in the municipality of Zamora, Michoacán, Mexico. This case study considers the available raw material, waste from the food industries, the period of time in which these are available, as well as the possible places for processing and obtaining biofuels. The results establish that it is possible to obtain 7.27 × 107 l/year of bioethanol through the processing of 3.27 × 106 tons/year of organic waste, which generates a profit of 4.37 × 107 USD/year.
