Given the environmental concerns and declining availability of
fossil fuels, as well as the growing population worldwide, it is
essential to move toward a sustainable bioenergy-based economy.
However, it is also imperative to address sustainability in the
bioenergy industry in order to avoid depleting necessary biomass
resources. Sustainable Bioenergy Production provides comprehensive
knowledge and skills for the analysis and design of sustainable
biomass production, bioenergy processing, and biorefinery systems
for professionals in the bioenergy field.
Focusing on topics vital to the sustainability of the bioenergy
industry, this book is divided into four sections: Fundamentals of
Engineering Analysis and Design of Bioenergy Production Systems,
Sustainable Biomass Production and Supply Logistics, Sustainable
Bioenergy Processing, and Sustainable Biorefinery Systems. Section
I covers the fundamentals of genetic engineering, novel breeding,
and cropping technologies applied in the development of energy
crops. It discusses modern computational tools used in the design
and analysis of bioenergy production systems and the life-cycle
assessment for evaluating the environmental sustainability of
biomass production and bioenergy processing technologies.
Section II focuses on the technical and economic feasibility and
environmental sustainability of various biomass feedstocks and
emerging technologies to improve feedstock sustainability. Section
III addresses the technical and economic feasibility and
environmental sustainability of different bioenergy processing
technologies and emerging technologies to improve the
sustainability of each bioenergy process. Section IV discusses the
design and analysis of biorefineries and different biorefinery
systems, including lignocellulosic feedstock, whole-crop, and green
biorefinery.
