Improvements in Bio-Based Building Blocks Production Through
Process Intensification and Sustainability Concepts discusses new
information on the production and cost of bio-based building
blocks. From a technical point-of-view, almost all industrial
materials made from fossil resources can be substituted using
bio-based counterparts. However, the cost of bio-based production
in many cases exceeds the cost of petrochemical production. In
addition, new products must be proven to perform at least as good
as their petrochemical equivalents, have a lower environmental
impact, meet consumer demand for environmentally-friendly products,
factor in population growth, and account for limited supplies of
non-renewables. This book outlines the application of process
intensification techniques which allow for the generation of clean,
efficient and economical processes for bio-based chemical blocks
production.
Process synthesis and process intensification are becoming
state-of-the-art scientific fields that provide the methods and
tools to improve process technologies in terms of high energy
efficiency, low capital investment, low emissions, improved safety,
and less hazardous byproducts to achieve sustainable products and
processes. The book covers manufacturing processes from both
fossil- and biomass-based feedstocks for graduate students.
