Publisher Summary 1
This introductory textbook on bioresources currently used in the 21st century focuses on chemical and material products and how they are manipulated for sustainability. Editors Clark (bioengineering, U. of York) and Deswarte (bioscience engineering, Ghent U., Belgium) have collected information from industrial scientists in the fields of chemistry and biotechnology to help bioengineering students understand such topics as biorefineries, the chemical value of biomass, green chemical technologies and the production of chemicals and biomaterials from biomass sources. The relationship between energy production from biomass and the need to develop renewable resources in the future is also examined. Annotation 漏2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
Publisher Summary 2
Nature provides us with an abundance of chemical potential. Presenting an overview of the use of bioresources in the 21st century, Introduction to Chemicals from Biomasscovers resources, chemical composition of biomass, key factors affecting composition, utilization of wastes, extraction technologies, controlled pyrolysis, fermentation, platform molecules, and green chemical technologies for their conversion to valuable chemicals. The text shows how smaller volume chemicals could become bulk chemicals as a result of a greater exploitation of biomass products, making it an important resource for academic and industrial scientists and researchers.
