Biorefineries: Integrated Biochemical Processes for Liquid Biofuels

Biorefineries outlines the processes and steps to successfully scale up production of two types of biofuels, butanol and ethanol, from cellulosic residues for commercial purposes. It covers practical topics, including biomass availability, pretreatment, fermentation, and water recycling, as well as policy and economic factors. This reflects the unique expertise of the editor team, whose backgrounds range from wood and herbaceous feedstocks to process economics and industrial expertise. The strategies presented in this book help readers to design integrated and efficient processes to reduce the cost of production and achieve an economically viable end product Outlines the economic benefits of designing a single operational process.Includes all currently available processes on pretreatment, fermentation and recoveryCovers all pretreatment, fermentation, and product recovery optionsFocuses on biofuels but acts as a stepping stone to develop cost-efficient processes for an array of commodity chemicals INDICE: PART I CELLULOSIC BIOMASS PROCESSING & BIOREFINERY ROAD MAP CHAPTER 1 An Overview of Existing Individual Unit Operations CHAPTER 2 Biomass for Biorefining: Resources, Allocation, Utilization, and Policies CHAPTER 3 Biorefinery Roadmaps CHAPTER 4 Integration of (Hemi)-Cellulosic Biofuels Technologies with Chemical Pulp Production CHAPTER 5 Integrated Processes for Product Recovery PART II CELLULOSIC ETHANOL CHAPTER 6 Development of Growth-Arrested Bioprocesses with Corynebacterium glutamicum for Cellulosic Ethanol Production from Complex Sugar Mixtures CHAPTER 7 Consolidated Bioprocessing for Ethanol Production CHAPTER 8 Integration of Ethanol Fermentation with Second Generation Biofuels Technologies PART III CELLULOSIC BUTANOL CHAPTER 9 Mixed Sugar Fermentation by Clostridia and Metabolic Engineering for Butanol Production CHAPTER 10 Integrated Bioprocessing and Simultaneous Product Recovery for Butanol Production CHAPTER 11 Integrated Production of Butanol from Glycerol PART IV PROCESS ECONOMICS & FARM-BASED BIOREFINERY CHAPTER 12 Process Economics of Renewable Biorefineries: Butanol and Ethanol Production in Integrated Bioprocesses from Lignocellulosics and Other Industrial By-Products CHAPTER 13 Integrated Farm-Based Biorefinery
