Abstract Globally, fossil fuel dependence has created several environmental challenges and climate change. Hence, creating
other alternative renewable and ecologically friendly bio-energy sources is necessary. Lignocellulosic biomass has
gained significant attention recently as a renewable material for biofuel production. The large amounts of plantain
and banana plant parts wasted after harvesting, as well as the peels generated daily by the fruit market and industries, demonstrate the potential of bioenergy resources. This review briefly assesses plantain and banana plant biomass (PBB) generated in the developing, developed, and underdeveloped countries, the consumable parts, and
feasible products yield. It… More >
