As a result, businesses and technologies are developing around biomass processing and its applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTransformation of Biomass: Theory to Practice\u003c\/i\u003e explores the modern applications of biomass and bio-based residues for the generation of energy, heat and chemical products. The first chapter presents readers with a broad overview of biomass and its composition, conversion routes and products. The following chapters deal with specific technologies, including anaerobic digestion, pyrolysis and gasification, as well as hydrothermal and supercritical conversion. Each chapter details current practises, recent developments, business case models and comprehensive analysis of the problems associated with each approach, and how to optimize them.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTopics covered include:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnaerobic digestion\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReactor design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePyrolysis\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCatalysis in biomass transformation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEngines for combined heat and power\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInfluence of feedstocks on performance and products\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBio-hydrogen from biomass\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnalysis of bio-oils\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNumerical simulation and formal kinetic parameters evaluation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBusiness case development\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis textbook will provide students, researchers and industry professionals with a practical and accessible guide to the essential skills required to advance in the field of bioenergy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134270030064,"sku":"9781118693667","price":92.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781118693667_p0.jpg?v=1769889092","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781118693667","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
