Bioethanol Fuel Production Processes. II

Employs an interdisciplinary approach covering science, technology, environment, and social sciences regarding the production of bioethanol fuels Examines biomass biorefineries and their role in reducing production costs by producing additional products such as power, heat, animal feed, biodiesel, biogas, and biochemicals Covers enzymatic biomass hydrolysis, microbes used for the fermentation of biomass hydrolysates, and metabolic engineering of these microbes to improve the ethanol yield Includes case studies on the biomass biorefinery and bioethanol fuel separation such as power and heat production and dehydration of ethanol-water mixtures
