Beskrivning

Published as part of Elsevier’s Applied Biotechnology Reviews, Advances in Biogas Technology presents a curated reference addressing the most important aspects of biogas production technologies. This book examines the principles and mechanics of anaerobic digestion (AD), the microbiology of AD and advances in novel microbial consortia, biogas from different feedstocks, such as municipal waste, agricultural waste, and industrial wastewater, as well as advances in bioreactor design and configuration, and innovations in AD technology. The book presents several case studies and considers the social impacts of biogas technology. Intended for researchers, academics, and students working in and studying biotechnology and bioprocess engineering, chemical engineering, environmental engineering, alternative fuels, renewable energy, and related areas, Advances in Biogas Technology will be a welcomed reference for those looking for up-to-date coverage of the latest advances in the field of biogas technology.

Highlights the most advanced and innovative technologies for biogas production
Identifies research gaps in the application of novel microorganisms, potential feedstocks and pretreatments, AI, reactor design and configuration, metabolic engineering, kinetic assessment and novel production methods to enhance biogas yields
Serves as an invaluable guide for those who produce effective and commercially viable biogas process technologies
