1. An integrated process of coproducing biofuels, the process comprising:
- removing hexose from a feedstock to form a lignocellulosic material;
converting the hexose to a first biofuel material;
depolymerizing the lignocellulosic material to form pentose and a residue; and
converting the pentose to a second biofuel material.

Abstract
This invention relates to a process, a plant, and a biofuel for integrated biofuel production, such as with biogasoline, biodiesel, and/or sugar product. The integrated process includes the step of removing hexose from a feedstock to form a lignocellulosic material. The process also includes the step of converting the hexose to a biogasoline and/or a biodiesel material, and the step of depolymerizing lignocellulosic material to form pentose and a residue. The process also includes the step of converting the pentose to a biogasoline and/or a biodiesel material.
