    Concerns in energy shortage and the impact of greenhouse gas emissions motivate the production of transportation fuel via a combined biomass gasification (BG) and Fischer-Tropsch (FT) process. This review explains the basic background of the BG-FT process, including the gasification, gas cleaning, and FT processes. Numerous aspects of this process, such as the influence of the feedstock type and characteristics and the processing conditions, efficient process design, and FT-catalyst performance improvement, are reviewed based on laboratory-scale research reported in the literature. The tar removal process used to produce the synthesis gas satisfying the FT specification is also focused in this review. Moreover, the technical and economic prospects of the current BG-FT process to produce transportation fuels are reviewed and compared. Finally, trends in the future research of the BG-FT process are examined.

    Utilizing biomass and biogas sourced from various organic waste materials as renewable feedstocks for biomethanol production offers a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum oil, and natural gas. This chapter provides an exploration of several technologies employed in biomethanol production, including biomass gasification, biomass pyrolysis, and biogas upgrading. Syngas production and conditioning, methanol synthesis and separation, and integrating systems with other renewable energy sources are found to be crucial stages towards achieving sustainable production. The chapter comprehensively evaluates the technical, economic, and environmental aspects of each biomethanol production process. Furthermore, it delves into ongoing efforts to improve and develop biomethanol-production processes to achieve the carbon neutrality goals. The chapter also outlines emerging trends and future research directions in the field of biomethanol production.
