Microalgal Biofuels for Bioenergy Applications (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Microalgal Biofuels for Bioenergy Applications presents the current methods, practical applications, and research trends on diverse biofuel products from microalgae to fulfil the constant need of affordable energy sources for present and future generations. The comprehensive book provides analyses of microalgal biology, chemical and molecular engineering techniques to scale-up algal biomass processes and biofuels conversion, and economic feasibility of value-added bioenergy co-products from a variety of microalgal strains.

Divided into four parts, the book begins with an introduction to microalgal biomass, its availability, suitability, and potential for biofuel applications. It follows with the scientific and methodical aspects of biomass harvesting, and dedicated chapters on the conversion technologists and process developments in the microalgal bioenergy sector. The third section examines sustainable and commercial applications of microalgal biofuels, including LCA. Finally, section four discusses the technological limitations and future perspectives on microalgal biofuels. Each section offers in-depth knowledge on the fundamental and practical aspects with reference to biofuels and bioenergy production from microalgae.

Microalgal Biofuels for Bioenergy Applications provides a valuable update for students, researchers, and industry professionals working in bioenergy, and will be of interest to microbial and environmental scientists, and phycologists interested in practical applications for microalgae.
