This book covers various aspects of microbial biotechnology to
produce bioenergy. It focuses on production of biofuels from plant
and microbial biomass including agri-food residues and other
wastes. It educates readers about various biomass resources, major
aspects of production of renewable energy and fuels based on
biochemical conversion routes. There is special focus on the
microbial system and biotechnological processes as well as process
optimization and industrial scale-up. The book brings together
current challenges and potential solutions to enhance biomass to
biofuel bioconversion. It is relevant for researchers,
academicians, students as well as industry professionals working on
biomass-based biorefineries.

This book presents a review and in-depth analyses of improved
biotechnological processes emphasizing critical aspects and
challenges of lignocellulosic biomass conversion into biofuels and
value-added products especially using extremophiles and recombinant
microorganisms. The book specifically comprises extremophilic
production of liquid and gaseous biofuels (bioethanol, biobutanol,
biodiesel, biohydrogen, and biogas) as well as value added products
(e.g. single cell protein, hydrocarbons, lipids,
exopolysaccharides, and polyhydroxyalkanoates). The book also
provides the knowledge on how to develop safe, more efficient,
sustainable, and economical integrated processes for enhanced
conversion of lignocellulosic feedstocks to liquid and gaseous
biofuels. Finally the book describes how to perform the
techno-economical and life-cycle assessments of new integrated
processes involving extremophiles. These modeling exercises are
critical in addressing any deficiencies associated with the
demonstration of an integrated biofuels and value-added products
production process at pilot scale as well as demonstration on the
commercialization scale.
