Explores Worldwide Trends Involving the Production and Use of Biofuels
With the depletion of oil resources as well as the negative
environmental impact of fossil fuels, there is much interest in
alternative energy sources. Focusing on some of the most important
alternate energy sources for the foreseeable future, the Handbook of
Plant-Based Biofuels provides state-of-the-art information on the
status of the production of biofuels, in particular, bioethanol and
biodiesel.
Introduction to Biofuels
After profiling plant-based biofuels, the book gives an overview of
the production of biofuels from biomass materials by thermochemical and
biochemical methods. It examines the thermochemical conversion of
biomass to liquids and gaseous fuels.
Production of Bioethanol
The handbook then analyzes current biomass-to-ethanol programs,
followed by a discussion on ethanol fermentation from molasses and
process practices applied for the improvement of ethanol production by
ethanologenic microorganisms. It also explains the hydrolysis and
fermentation of ethanol from starchy and lignocellulosic biomasses.
Production of Biodiesel
In the final chapters, the contributors discuss current perspectives
and the future of biodiesel production. They explore biodiesel
production substrates, the lipase-catalyzed preparation of biodiesel,
and biodiesel production with supercritical fluid technologies.
