Abstract
Population growth and technological progress significantly contribute to the climate change intensification, the increasing global energy demand, and the depletion of natural resources, while also generating massive amounts of waste. Agriculture is one of the main sectors with the highest biomass production, representing an essential factor for the bioeconomy. Agricultural wastes represent a sustainable and abundant source of organic matter, used in the production of biofuels, which are considered a promising alternative to meeting the global energy demand. This article highlights the importance of efficient agricultural waste management as a key vector in applying the circular economy principles through the production of sustainable biofuels. In addition, the dataset related to the agricultural waste valorization obtained from the specialized literature is comprehensively studied using bibliometric analysis.
