Handbook Of Biofuels Production: Processes And Technologies - 9780323911931

This new edition of Handbook of Biofuels Production: Processes and Technologies provides a comprehensive and systematic reference on the range of biomass conversion processes and technology. In response to the global increase in the use of biofuels as substitute transportation fuels, advanced chemical, biochemical and thermochemical biofuels production routes are quickly being developed. Research and development in this field is aimed at improving the quality and environmental impact of biofuels production, as well as the overall efficiency and output of biofuels production plants. Handbook of Biofuels Production: Processes and Technologies, Third Edition, is an essential reference for professional engineers in the biofuel industry as well as researchers in academia, from post-graduate level onwards working on biofuels. With substantial additions for this third edition, key changes include increase coverage of emerging feedstocks, including microalgae, more emphasis on by-product valorisation for biofuels' production, additional chapters on emerging biofuel production method, and co-production of biofuels and bioproducts. The editorial team is strengthened by the addition of an extra member, and a number of new contributors have been invited to work with authors from the first and second edition to revise existing chapters, offering fresh perspectives.
