In Indonesia, where agriculture is thriving, a variety of crops such as pineapple, cassava, and palm are grown on a large scale. As these crops are processed, residues(wastewater, solid residues, oils, etc.) are generated in large amounts. When disposed of, this waste generates methane gas, contributing to global warming. This research aims to make effective use of these agricultural residues and convert them into biofuels and bio-chemicals through the power of microorganisms. This will lead to the creation of a new chemical industry linked to agriculture.
If agricultural waste is converted into biofuels and chemicals, the chemical industry, which until now has been dependent on fossil resources, can evolve into a new chemical industry linked to agriculture. If this industrial structure can be changed, it will have a great impact on the securing of resources in Japan’s chemical industry and assist in combating global warming.
