Biobased Surfactants: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications

Biobased Surfactants and Detergents: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications, Second Edition, covers biosurfactant synthesis and applications and how to reduce manufacturing and purification costs, impurities and by-products. Fully revised, updated and with over 30% new content, including new chapters on bio based surfactants in biomedical applications, detergents, food and pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and nanotechnology, the book reflects the latest developments in bio based surfactant science. Providing use-case scenarios to guide readers in efficient and effective bio based surfactant application, along with strategies for research into new practical applications, this book, written by an international team of experts, educates readers from a biorefinery-based perspective. Completely revised, including five all new chapters Describes new and emerging bio based surfactants and new trends for the synthesis and development of bio based surfactants (including green labeling) Addresses chemistry, biotechnology, biomedical, environmental and engineering disciplines Presents the entire lifecycle of bio based surfactants, including feedstock selection, synthesis and chemical medication, purification, application and biodegradability
