Co-processing of lignocellulosic wastes, e.g., garden and paper wastes, and the organic matters fraction of municipal solid waste (OMSW) in an integrated bioprocess is a possible approach to realize the potential of wastes for biobutanol production.

Municipal solid waste (MSW) was used as a source for biobutanol production via acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE) fermentation. Organosolv pretreatment was used for simultaneous extraction of inhibitors, particularly tannins, and pretreatment of lignocellulosic fraction prior to hydrolysis. The hydrolysates of the pretreated MSW contained appreciable amounts of sugars and soluble starch together with a tolerable amount of inhibitors for Clostridium acetobutylicum.
