This book covers various types of lignocellulosic biomass, their sources, characterization methods, and pretreatment techniques for isolating lignin, thereby making cellulose and hemicellulose available for saccharification to glucose. In addition, it includes examples and case studies, as well as various methods for producing biofuels and value-added products from biomass. The book delves into modern separation processes, such as membrane technology, which facilitate sugar concentration, enzyme recycling, higher bioethanol yields, and the treatment of bioprocess effluent.
Features:
- Focuses on the development of various economic and integrated techniques for converting biomass for the production of feedstock products;
- Provides a comprehensive review of biomass for bioethanol for renewable biomass feedstock;
- Discusses renewable materials for material sustainability;
- Reviews pollution-free technologies for utilization in biorefineries;
- Incorporates problem sets, examples, and case studies.
This book is aimed at researchers, professionals, and graduate students in bioprocessing, chemical engineering and biotechnology.
