According to the International Energy Agency, biorefinery is "the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of marketable bio-based products (chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (fuels, power, heat)". In this review, we survey how the biorefinery approach can be applied to highly porous and nanostructured materials, namely aerogels. Historically, aerogels were first developed using inorganic matter. Subsequently, synthetic polymers were also employed. At the beginning of the 21st century, new aerogels were created based on biomass. Which sources of biomass can be used to make aerogels and how? This review answers these questions, paying special attention to bio-aerogels' environmental and biomedical applications. The article is a result of fruitful exchanges in the frame of the European project COST Action "CA 18125 AERoGELS: Advanced Engineering and Research of aeroGels for Environment and Life Sciences".
根据国际能源署的定义，生物炼制是“将生物质可持续加工成一系列可销售的生物基产品（化学品、材料）和生物能源（燃料、电力、热能）”。在本综述中，我们探讨了生物炼制方法如何应用于高度多孔和纳米结构的材料，即气凝胶。从历史上看，气凝胶最初是使用无机物开发的。随后，合成聚合物也被采用。在21世纪初，基于生物质的新型气凝胶被创造出来。哪些生物质来源可用于制造气凝胶以及如何制造？本综述回答了这些问题，并特别关注生物气凝胶在环境和生物医学方面的应用。本文是欧洲项目“COST行动CA 18125气凝胶：用于环境和生命科学的气凝胶先进工程与研究”框架内富有成效交流的成果。
