This Proceedings Volume provides an overview of current research
and development presented at the Total Food 2009 International
Conference in Norwich, April 2009. The Total Food series of
biennial, international conferences was initiated in 2004 by the
Royal Society of Chemistry Food Group and the Institute of Food
Research, Norwich. The aim of Total Food is to debate global
research and development relevant to exploiting the whole food crop
rather than the limited proportion that is consumed at present. The
book is multidisciplinary and international in nature, presenting
the latest expertise and covers a broad spectrum of R&D which
is being brought to bear in the quest for sustainability. Areas
covered include the minimisation of waste through water recycling
and energy recovery, value added products from plants and food
chain wastes, and the exploitation of low value residues for the
production of biofuels. Since the Total Food series began, the
issue of food security has become prominent. The increasing global
population in conjunction with the use of crops for biofuel
production mean that the more efficient exploitation of biomass
will be required. The Total Food conferences are well placed to
provide regular forums to highlight recent developments and to
facilitate knowledge transfer between representatives of the
agri-food (and increasingly non-food) industries, scientific
research community, legal experts on food-related legislation and
waste management, and consumer organisations.
This book presents key recent developments in biofuel policy,
products, processes, patents and innovative technologies. It
presents several case studies, which maximize reader insights into
how innovative green energy technologies can be implemented on an
industrial scale, with illustrations, photos and new approaches. It
also analyzes in detail several different technological aspects of
the research into and production of green fuels from the first,
second and third generation, such as, bioethanol, biogas,
biohydrogen, biobutanol, biofuels from pyrolysis, and discusses
their economic and environmental impacts. A new source of
information for engineers, technicians and students involved in
production and research in the biofuels sector, this book also
provides a valuable resource for industry, covering the current and
future status of biofuels.
