As we all know, a clean energy revolution is taking place all over the world in pursuit of replacingoil. The present work stands out an environmental point of view by proposing biomass wastesdifferent industrial areas to produce not only a biofuel but also as raw material to synthetize thecatalyst involved in the HDO reaction. In this way the process ceases to rely on the antiquated andobsolete linear economy where products, services, wastes, materials, water and energy have abeginning and an end to become a process with greater tendency to the modern circular economy,closely related to the idea of sustainability. Products, materials and resources are expected to lastas long as possible while minimizing waste as much as possible too.
