Sustainable Bioprocessing for a Clean and Green Environment

Sustainable Bioprocessing for a Clean and Green Environment: Concepts and Applications highlights the importance of waste to health in which waste is safely converted to value-added products via bioprocess technologies. Providing fundamental concepts and applications, this book also offers readers the methodology behind the operation of a variety of biological processes used in developing valuable products from waste. Discusses synthesis and use of environmentally friendly biobased materials, such biopolymer films and biobased plasticizersHighlights nanotechnology applications in the treatment of pollution and emphasizes the synthesis of biogenic nanomaterials for environmental remediationDescribes the use of biosurfactants and emerging algal technologies, such as applications of microalgae in nutraceuticals and biofuel productionDetails delignification for lignocellulosic biomassThis interdisciplinary book offers researchers and practitioners in chemical engineering, environmental engineering, and related fields a broad perspective on fundamentals, technologies, and environmental applications of sustainable bioprocessing.
