HANDBOOK of BIOMASS VALORIZATION for INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS The
handbook provides a comprehensive view of cutting-edge research on
biomass valorization, from advanced fabrication methodologies
through useful derived materials, to current and potential
application sectors. Industrial sectors, such as food, textiles,
petrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, generate massive amounts of
waste each year, the disposal of which has become a major issue
worldwide. As a result, implementing a circular economy that
employs sustainable practices in waste management is critical for
any industry. Moreover, fossil fuels, which are the primary sources
of fuel in the transportation sector, are also being rapidly
depleted at an alarming rate. Therefore, to combat these global
issues without increasing our carbon footprint, we must look for
renewable resources to produce chemicals and biomaterials. In that
context, agricultural waste materials are gaining popularity as
cost-effective and abundantly available alternatives to fossil
resources for the production of a variety of value-added products,
including renewable fuels, fuel components, and fuel additives.
Handbook of Biomass Valorization for Industrial Applications
investigates current and emerging feedstocks, as well as provides
in-depth technical information on advanced catalytic processes and
technologies that enable the development of all possible
alternative energy sources. The 22 chapters of this book
comprehensively cover the valorization of agricultural wastes and
their various uses in value-added applications like energy,
biofuels, fertilizers, and wastewater treatment. Audience The book
is intended for a very broad audience working in the fields of
materials sciences, chemical engineering, nanotechnology, energy,
environment, chemistry, etc. This book will be an invaluable
reference source for the libraries in universities and industrial
institutions, government and independent institutes, individual
research groups, and scientists working in the field of
valorization of biomass.
