Petroleum Biotechnology
This book is one of a kind in the field of petroleum biorefining and biological upgrade of petroleum; it presents a critical review as well as an integrated overview of the potential biochemical processes, bridging the gap between academia and industry. It addresses today’s demanding production challenges, taking into account energy efficient and environmentally friendly processes, and also looks at the future possibility of implementing new refinery systems. Suitable for those practitioners the petroleum industry, students and researchers interested in petroleum biotechnology. * Covers a new application field for biotechnology * Looks at innovative processes for the petroleum industry * Presents examples of modern environmental processes
Environmental Biotechnology and Cleaner Bioprocesses
As we enter a new millennium, the environmental issues faced by both developing and industrialised nations are as pressing as ever. Environmental biotechnologies are increasingly being viewed as a major weapon against environmental damage. Cleaner production is part of this strategy and yet there is still widespread ignorance about this emerging technology. Environmental Biotechnology and Cleaner Bioprocesses provides this information at various levels, from introductory to advanced. The first section covers the development of cleaner bioprocesses within the framework of sustainable development. Aspects of environmental policy for small and medium businesses are then discussed using case stu...
Biocatalysis Based on Heme Peroxidases
The last systematic description of heme peroxidases was published in 1999 by Brian Dunford, from the University of Alberta in Canada. The book Heme per- idases covers discussion on three-dimensional structure, reaction mechanism, kinetics, and spectral properties of representative enzymes from bacterial, plant, fungal, and animal origin. Since 1999, vast information on basic but also applied aspects of heme peroxidases has been generated. We believe fusion of these two aspects will bene?t research of those dedicated to development of biocatalytic process. The aim of this book is to present recent advances on basic aspects such as evolution, structure–function relation, and catalytic mechan...
Heme Peroxidases
This book will provide an up to date handbook that is unique in its combination of both the general aspects of heme protein structure and the function in a single volume.

Environmental Biotransformations
All human activities on earth produce some kind of byproduct or pollutant, and over the last decades an increasing number of novel industrial compounds called xenobiotics has accumulated. The development of new technologies from modern microbiology, enzymology and molecular biology has enabled engineers and scientists to tackle some of the more recent environmental problems such as the detoxification of hazardous chemicals. The aim of this special issue is to present an overview of different biological and biochemical transformations of pollutant compounds including xenobiotic chemicals. Biotransformations of aromatic compounds, polychlorinated chemicals, pesticides, dioxins and fuel additives are analyzed and discussed, and critical reviews at three different levels - bioremediation processes, microbial and plant metabolic pathways, and enzymatic transformations - are presented. A reliable know-how in environmental biotechnology as provided by this collection of papers will be helpful in achieving one of society's most important goals today: to reestablish Nature's equilibrium.
Biotechnology for Fuels and Chemicals
MARK FINKELSTEIN National Renewable Energy Laboratory BRIAN H. DAVISON Oak Ridge National Laboratory The proceedings of the 19th symposium on Biotechnologyfor Fuels and Chemicals, held in Colorado Springs, Colorado, May 4-8, 1997, had over 200 attendees. This meeting continues to provide a unique forum for the presentation of new applications and recent research advances in the production of fuels and chemicals through biotech nology. The utilization of renewable resources, and in particular cellulosic biomass, has broad implications in today's world of green house gases, global warming, ozone layers, climate change, energy sustainability, and carbon emissions. It also has relevance to the c...
