Synopsis

Biomass Conversion and High-Value Utilization provides the theoretical foundations, methods, and latest applications on the conversion and utilization of biomass for bioenergy, biofuels, energy storage, and high-value products. The book combines the preparation methods, physical and chemical properties measurement methods, and specific applications of products from biomass via thermal, catalytic, and biological technologies. Divided into two parts, Part I examines the efficient conversion of biomass resources, explaining key concepts, methods, and technological bottlenecks. Part II explores the versatile utilization of functional carbon materials derived from biomass, including catalysts for biodiesel production, metal-air batteries, electrochemical sensors, and wearable electronics. Finally, the book provides an extensive review of each technology; each technology-specific chapter reviews the current and future market demand of the technology, evaluates the economic feasibility of the technology, including cost effectiveness, return on investment, profit forecast, etc., discusses the unique advantages of the technology compared to existing common methods or other alternative technologies, considers the feasibility and practicability of the technology in actual industrial production, and explains the regulatory and environmental requirements and limitations of the technology. Biomass Conversion and High-Value Utilization is an invaluable resource for researchers and students involved in biomass conversion to high-value fuels and other products, and will be of interest to anyone working in bioenergy, biofuels, energy storage, catalysis, electronics and devices, and functional carbon materials.
