Lignocellulosic biomass conversion to fuel is the only sustainable
way to meet the current and future energy demands, at least in
displacing a substantial amount of liquid transportation fuel, and
curb detrimental effects of greenhouse gas emissions. Various
routes and processes to convert lignocellulosic biomass to fuels,
chemicals, and bio-based materials have been developed in the last
couple of decades. This book contains eleven chapters that intend
to provide readers with updates on these various processes and
routes to produce fuels and chemicals using lignocellulosic
biomass. In addition, it covers the past and current developments
on biomass logistics, analytical tools applied to characterise
lignocellulosic biomass, environmental aspects and engine
performance of various fuels, as well as techno-economical aspects
of lignocellulosic biomass refinery. The following list summarises
the topics covered in this book: The past and current developments
on biomass valorisation in biochemical platforms; Developments in
thermochemical conversion of biomass to fuels and chemicals
including gasification, pyrolysis, and hydrothermal treatment;
Heterogeneous catalysts application in low to high temperature
conversion of biomass to fuels and chemicals; Pathways of lignin
valorisation to fuels and chemicals; Production methods and the
physicochemical properties of nanocelluloses; The environmental
impacts and engine performances of various bio-fuels; Biomass
logistics and their impact on bioenergy applications; Anaerobic
conversion of biomass to biogas and impacts of co-digestion on
biogas yields and quality.
