SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION INNOVATIONS Presenting the latest
technologies and practices in this ever-changing field, this
groundbreaking new volume covers the gambit for providing solutions
and practical applications of smart and efficient energy systems.
The global and climate changes we are witnessing are primarily
driven by factors such as rising population, economic growth, and
industrialization. These changes have led to an increase in
atmospheric CO2, pollution, deforestation, water scarcity, and
hunger, among other pressing issues. To ensure a green and
sustainable future, it is crucial to harness renewable resources
for the production of fuels, chemicals, and materials. The book,
Sustainable Production Innovations, addresses several bioprocesses
that are integral to our daily lives, tackling important topics
such as biofuel production, energy and food security, and
wastewater management. The commercial interest in biotechnological
processes has grown significantly due to their ability to utilize
biocatalysts such as enzymes, bacteria, plant cells, or animal
cells in bioreactors for the production of medications, health
supplements, foods, biofuels, and chemicals. Switching to
bioproducts offers key benefits such as the sustainability of
third-generation biofuels, CO2 sequestration, effective waste
utilization, and meeting the increasing demand for clean water. The
book explores various procedures used in biomass biorefineries and
bioprocessing for the production of biofuels, biobased chemicals,
and bioproducts. It also delves into advancements in utilizing
oleaginous microorganisms for biofuels and nutraceuticals,
biological wastewater treatment, and microplastic detection
techniques in water. Additionally, the book covers topics such as
biolubricant technologies, bioprocessing of agricultural and forest
waste, biotechnological approaches in the cosmetic industry, and
large-scale applications of nanomaterials for water treatment.
Authored by experts from leading biotechnology research groups
around the world, the book comprises 13 chapters featuring the
latest research in each subject. It is a valuable resource for
scholars in chemical engineering, applied microbiology,
biotechnology, agricultural biotechnology, environmental
biotechnology, and related fields, offering new insights into the
sustainable use of renewable energy and biochemicals.
Professionals, including biochemical engineers, phycologists,
bioprocess engineers, chemical engineers, scientists, and
researchers in the water, food, pharmaceutical, and renewable
energy industries will find this book beneficial. Likewise,
students and faculty in the chemical engineering and energy
departments will gain valuable knowledge from its contents.
