Abstract

Wood wastes have the potential to be utilized in the manufacturing of a wide range of products, such as engineered wood products, energy generation, and additive manufacturing. These low-cost biomasses that are only partially exploited have the potential to increase the value that can be added to waste wood products. The objective of this chapter is to address the challenges encountered as well as the opportunities presented by the utilization of wood waste. With the aid of this knowledge, the right approach can be identified for the development of wood waste in the future, which will result in the most long-term benefits for both the environment and the economy. The lack of adaption of more sophisticated technology and the absence of organizations concerned with the potential advantages of making use of such wastes is the source of the problem with wood waste. From this review, it is indicated that wood waste has the potential to be used as a source for the manufacture of a variety of materials; therefore, in order to make the most of the value of wood waste resources, the government should implement efficient guidelines for wood waste management.
