Description
Sustainable Technologies for Value Addition to Biomass Waste introduces readers to revolutionary approaches for converting waste biomass into commercially viable products such as biofuels, materials, and microbial derivatives. This book explores detailed methodologies for transforming biomass waste, highlighting advanced techniques, reactor designs, and sustainable strategies. It provides critical insights into the feasibility, limitations, and applications of these technologies, making it a vital resource for professionals seeking to understand the intersection of sustainability and innovation in waste management. Beyond production technologies, the book delves into the physicochemical composition of biomass waste, explores marine biomass recycling, and examines the integration of artificial intelligence for efficient waste management. It offers a life cycle assessment framework to evaluate waste generation and conversion, emphasizing its role in advancing a circular economy while addressing environmental challenges. Readers will also benefit from discussions on commercial scalability and the broader impacts of these technologies on resource conservation and pollution reduction.Sustainable Technologies for Value Addition to Biomass Waste introduces readers to revolutionary approaches for converting waste biomass into commercially viable products such as biofuels, materials, and microbial derivatives.
