Ebook: Green Chemistry for Sustainable Biofuel Production

Green Chemistry for Sustainable Biofuel Production is an important volume that emphasizes green chemistry and green engineering principles for sustainable process development. It creates an enriching knowledge base on green chemistry of biofuel production, sustainable process development, and green engineering principles for renewable fuel production.



Renewable fuel research and process development requires interdisciplinary approaches involving chemists and physicists from both scientific and engineering backgrounds. This book includes chapters contributed by both research scientists and research engineers with significant experience in biofuel chemistry and processes. This book is organized into four parts that cover, in detail, topics related to (ADD BULLETS)

biofuel feedstock challenges and potential and renewable fuels from carbon sources

process intensification and green chemistry through microwave irradiation, hydrodynamic cavitation, hydrothermal processes, and using ionic liquids

evaluation of nonconventional and emerging sustainable feedstock, such as microalgae, oleaginous microorganisms from wastewater sludge, and biorefinery configurations using bioelectrochemical systems as central technology

energy-efficiency analyses, techno-economic aspects and life-cycle impacts, and inventories of various biofuel production processes



The book offers an abundance of scientific experimental methods and analytical procedures and interpretation of the results that capture the state-of-the-art knowledge in this field. The wide range of topics make this book a valuable resource for academicians, researchers, and industrial practitioners and scientists, and engineers in various renewable energy fields.
