"The Role of Catalysis for the Sustainable Production of
Bio-fuels and Bio-chemicals" describes the importance of catalysis
for the sustainable production of biofuels and biochemicals,
focused primarily on the state-of-the-art catalysts and catalytic
processes expected to play a decisive role in the "green"
production of fuels and chemicals from biomass. In addition, the
book includes general elements regarding the entire chain of
biomass production, conversion, environment, economy, and
life-cycle assessment.
Very few books are available on catalysis in production schemes
using biomass or its primary conversion products, such as bio-oil
and lignin. This book fills that gap with detailed discussions of:
Catalytic pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomassHybrid biogasoline by
co-processing in FCC unitsFischer-Tropsch synthesis to biofuels
(biomass-to-liquid process)Steam reforming of bio-oils to
hydrogen
With energy prices rapidly rising, environmental concerns
growing, and regulatory apparatus evolving, this book is a resource
with tutorial, research, and technological value for chemists,
chemical engineers, policymakers, and students.
Includes catalytic reaction mechanism schemes and gives a clear
understanding of catalytic processesIncludes flow diagrams of
bench-, pilot- and industrial-scale catalytic processing units and
demonstrates the various process technologies involved, enabling
easy selection of the best processIncorporates many tables,
enabling easy comparison of data based on a critical review of the
available literature
