Synopsis

Electrochemical Biomass Conversion: Sustainable Processes and Applications for Bioenergy, Biofuels, and Bioproducts offers a detailed exploration of the mechanisms, advancements, and practical applications of electrochemical biomass conversion. Bridging theory and practice, it provides an overview of experimental findings and computational studies. The book begins with an introduction to basic concepts and processes. It then covers reactors, deconstruction, and valorization methods. Various catalysts and characterization techniques are discussed, along with biomass-derived electrochemical platforms. The book also addresses modeling, fermentation, reforming, oxidation, and hydrogenation. Noble metals, alloys, carbon, and polymer catalysts are examined, along with the integration of microbial, photo, and thermal methods.

Fuel and biodiesel production through electrochemical processes is explored, as well as the conversion of biomass derivatives like glucose, furfural, and glycerol. The book concludes with bioelectroconversion, technoeconomic assessments, sustainability aspects, case studies, and future directions in biomass electrochemistry.
