1. A method for producing biofuel or bioenergy product(s) from home or municipal organic solid waste, comprising:
- hydrolyzed cellulose materials from the home and municipal solid waste through the action of acid or alkali treatment, to thereby produce a treated and available carbon sources; and
synthesizing one or more biofuel or bioenergy products in bioreactors by microbial action using as carbon source the previously hydrolyzed waste materials

Abstract
The present invention provides methods of a process (SOLWASFUEL system) for producing biofuel and bioenergy products using, as starting raw material, home and municipal organic solid waste, including recalcitrant lignocellulosic materials of paper, cardboards, organic plastics, cellulose plants, and food waste. In accordance with the invention, home and municipal solid waste, can serve as a carbon source to support the metabolism of synthetic microorganisms to produce biofuels and bioenergy products.

36. An integrated process (or refinery) system for converting home or municipal solid waste to one or more biofuel or bioenergy products, comprising:
-
a pre-treated system suitable for hydrolyze the cellulosic materials to obtain carbon sources easily to metabolism. a anaerobic bioreactor operatively connected to receive said pre-treated hydrolyzed waste; and a photo bioreactor operatively connected to receive gas effluent from the anaerobic bioreactor. - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50)
