The handbook provides an understanding of consolidated processing
and biorefinery systems for the production of bio-based chemicals
and value-added bioproducts from renewable sources. The chapters
look at a variety of bioenergy technological advances and
improvements in the energy and materials sectors that aim to lower
our dependence of fossil fuels and consequently reduce greenhouse
gas (GHG) emissions. The volume looks at a selection of processes
for the production of energy and biomaterials, including the
Fischer-Tropsch process, gasification, pyrolysis, combustion,
fermentation from renewable sources (such as, plants, animals and
their byproducts), and others. Applications that are explored
include transportation fuels, biodiesel production, wastewater
treatment, edible packaging, bioplastics, physical rehabilitation,
tissue engineering, biomedical applications, thermal insulation,
industrial value compounds, and more. All of the topics covered in
this publication address consolidated processes that play a pivotal
role in the production of bioenergy and biomaterials because these
processes require fewer unitary operations needed in the process,
leading to a more direct method of production. This type of
production system contributes to decreasing negative effects on the
environment, lowering costs, saving energy and time, and improving
profitability and efficiency. This volume will be valuable for the
industrial sector, for researchers and scientists, as well as for
faculty and advanced students.
