The development of integrated biorefineries and the greater utilization of biomass resources to reduce dependence on fossil fuel‐derived products require research emphasis not just on conversion strategies but also on improving separations associated with biorefining. A significant roadblock towards developing biorefineries is the lack of effective separation techniques evidenced by the lack of literature in this area. Additionally, high conversion yields may only be realized if effective separations generate feedstock of sufficient purity – this makes research into biomass conversion strategies all the more critical. In this review, the challenges associated with biomass separations are discussed, followed by an overview of the most appropriate separation strategies for processing biomass. One of the unit operations most appealing for biorefining, membrane separations (MS), is then considered along with a review of the recent literature utilizing this technique in biomass processing.
