ABSTRACT = {Increased environmental pollution due to the organic wastes over the world is one of the most burning issues.
These organic wastes lie under the category of biodegradable waste and can be effectively degraded from their
complex compound into simple one by the action of microbes or other living organisms. Moreover, lignocellulosic
biomass is a major part of the biodegradable waste and belongs to the group of renewable energy source, which
can be very effective for bioenergy production. Biomasses are made up of different compounds such as cellulose,
hemicelluloses, lignin and protein. Apart from these components, based on the structural analysis biomass also
consist of bioactive substances such as carotenoids, flavonoids, lignin and antioxidants. This review explores a
complete overview of the classification, component and the structure of the biomass. Moreover, it discusses
how biomasses can play the key role of substrate in many sectors such as industrial bioenergy production including gaseous and liquid biofuels.},
