Description

Biomass Processes and Chemicals is written to assist the reader in understanding the options available for the production of chemicals from biomass. Petroleum-based and natural gas-based chemicals are well-established products that have served industry and consumers for more than one hundred years. However, time is running out and natural gas and petroleum are now being depleted. Thus, the need for alternative technologies to produce chemicals is necessary. Chemicals produced from sources are now coming into place for the establishment of a chemicals-from-biomass industry, hence this book covers these advancements.- Introduces a variety of biomass feedstocks as sources of chemicals- Includes accurate background science and technology for technological options- Features a very thorough approach for topical matters- Written in a highly structured way by a globally recognized authority in the field
