Biogas to Biomethane
Biogas to Biomethane: Engineering, Production, Sustainability addresses the technical, social and economic aspects of biogas upgradation to biomethane. With a focus on the latest advances, the book examines the challenges of biomethane production from technology to safety. Sections discuss the fundamentals of biomethane production, examine the latest technologies for biogas upgradation, provide step-by-step guidance on how to calculate and model mass, energy and emission flows from different process and technological configurations, address alternative and combined approaches to biogas upgradation, such as with mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria, consider the socio-economic implications of...
The First Half
Geoffrey Gore, educator and inventor, was brought up in an English country schoolhouse in the early years of the twentieth century. His childhood was overshadowed by tension in his parents' marriage. William Gore, a widower, had married a woman twenty years his junior. When they lost their first child, Constance became over-protective of her surviving son Geoffrey and made him her partner in lifelong conflict with her husband. Both parents possessed considerable strength of character. William, born in 1853, remained very much a man of the nineteenth century. Constance was already married when Queen Victoria died, but she was entirely at home in the twentieth. Her experiences as a Red Cross VAD nurse during the First World War set the seal on her emancipation. The first forty of Geoffrey Gore's eighty years ended with his service in the Second World War. When he came to write this memoir for his descendants, he chose to close it at that point.
Handbook of Food and Feed from Microalgae
Handbook of Food and Feed From Microalgae: Production, Application, Regulation, and Sustainability is a comprehensive resource on all aspects of using microalgae in food and feed. This book covers applied processes, including the utilization of compounds found in microalgae, the development of food products with microalgae biomass in their composition, the use of microalgae in animal nutrition, and associated challenges and recent advances in this field. Written by global leading experts in microalgae, this book begins with the fundamentals of food and feed, including microalgal biodiversity, biogeography, and nutritional purposes. The book continues to describe compounds found within microa...
Biomass Conversion and Sustainable Biorefinery
This book highlights recent progress on the advancements toward optimization of major biorefinery processes, including biomass pretreatment and fractionation, saccharification of sugars, and conversion of sugars and lignin into fuels and chemical precursors. The continual improvement of these processes and their integration in the format of a modern biorefinery is paving the way for a sustainable bio-economy that will displace large portions of petroleum-derived fuels and chemicals with renewable substitutes. Written by leading researchers from academia and well-renowned industry professionals, this book provides a comprehensive review of various aspects related to the recent developments in biomass conversion and biorefinery, aimed at successfully implementing the circular economy principles in various industries.
Transformation of Biomass
Biomass is a key resource for meeting the energy and material demands of mankind in the future. As a result, businesses and technologies are developing around biomass processing and its applications. Transformation of Biomass: Theory to Practice explores the modern applications of biomass and bio-based residues for the generation of energy, heat and chemical products. The first chapter presents readers with a broad overview of biomass and its composition, conversion routes and products. The following chapters deal with specific technologies, including anaerobic digestion, pyrolysis and gasification, as well as hydrothermal and supercritical conversion. Each chapter details current practises,...
