Description : Emerging Biofuels: Stationary and Mobile Applications presents a comprehensive assessment of the supply chains and conversion pathways of the most promising biofuels of the 21st century. Highlighting the potential of emerging biofuels, the book brings together the latest breakthroughs and process intensification strategies for the development of near to mid-term commercialization. The opening chapter of the book provides readers with an overview of emerging biofuels, their key advantages, and the major drivers for the emerging biofuel industry. The majority of the book is dedicated to assessing each emerging biofuel in turn, including renewable diesel, bio-CNG, 3rd generation lignocellulosic ethanol, fisher-tropsch biofuels, biohydrogen, microalgal biodiesel, bio jet fuel, hythane, methanol, and bio-oil, dimethyl ether, and biobutanol and more. The final chapters of the book examine the techno-economic viability, sustainability, and life cycle of selected biofuel through detailed case studies and analyze the internationally policy framework for biofuels. Emerging Biofuels: Stationary and Mobile Applications is a valuable reference for students, researchers, and industry engineers involved in biofuels production, and will be of interest to multidisciplinary teams working across Renewable Energy, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Science, and Sustainability Science.
