Efforts must be made to recover and repurpose biodegradable organic waste, minimizing its quantity and promoting a circular economy where nothing is discarded. With the growing reality of climate change, it becomes imperative to establish a self-sustaining and environmentally friendly economy to protect soils and ecosystems from the impact of industrial and urban waste.

Biomass naturally degrades and changes its chemical composition, providing an opportunity to direct this process toward obtaining a valuable end product. By defining the guidelines and characteristics of this chemical transformation, a new resource or raw material can be obtained with practical applications.
