Full Description
Sustainable Bioenergy Production from Agricultural Biomass and Waste provides a comprehensive overview of the conversion of agricultural biomass and waste to bioenergy, covering characteristics, properties, and energy use by source, and offering in-depth information on a range of biological treatment processes to produce biogas and biomethane, bioethanol, and biodiesel, as well as thermal treatment processes. Additionally, the book discusses environmental, social, and economic aspects of converting agricultural biomass and waste to energy, and the role and combination of biological and thermal aspects in the context of sustainable development. This latest volume in the Woodhead Series in Bioenergy is of interest to scientists, researchers, engineers, industrial practitioners, and graduate and postgraduate students working on or looking to understand how to utilize and add value to agricultural biomass and waste.
