Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Biomass Utilization and Sustainable Energy—ICoBiomasSE 2025; 10–11 September; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

This book presents peer-reviewed papers from the 5th International Conference on Biomass Utilization and Sustainable Energy 2025 (ICoBiomasSE 2025) organized by the Centre of Excellence for Biomass Utilization (COEBU), Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP). The theme of the conference "Harnessing Biomass for a Circular Economy: Innovations in Energy Transition" has been selected to highlight the critical role of biomass in reducing reliance on fossil fuels, enhancing resource efficiency, and promoting sustainable energy solutions. The contents are broadly divided into seven parts: (1) sustainable biomass resources for decarbonising the economy, (2) biomass conversion technologies for bioenergy (3) biomass conversion to intermediates and products, (4) bioeconomy sustainability, impacts and policies, (5) bioenergy integration. This compilation serves as a valuable platform for students, professionals, researchers, academicians, policymakers, and industry experts to engage in discussions on innovative solutions to environmental challenges, contributing to a more sustainable future. Additionally, it provides valuable insights for environmentalists and material scientists involved in planning, engineering, and management.
