Bioenergy Engineering: Fundamentals, Methods, Modelling, and Applications presents the fundamental principles, recent developments, innovative state-of the-art technologies, challenges, solutions and future perspectives on the production of biofuels and bioenergy. Balancing the scientific and engineering aspects of biofuels production, the book guides readers through the chemical kinetics, modeling, thermodynamics, unit operations and technological advancements in fuel processing from conventional and alternative resources. Each chapter of the book starts with the fundamentals and goes on to assess the latest technologies for the production of renewable fuels on topics.

Sections cover biomass utilization, biomass-to-liquid conversion technologies (pyrolysis, liquefaction, solid-state fermentation and submerged fermentation), biomass-to-gas conversion technologies (thermochemical gasification, subcritical and supercritical water gasification, and methanation), gas-to-liquid conversion technologies (Fischer-Tropsch synthesis), carbonization, transesterification, organic transformation, carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom coupling reactions, oxidation, reforming, hydrotreating technologies (hydrogenation, hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation, hydro dearomatization and hydro demetalization), nanocatalysis and biocatalysis (enzymatic hydrolysis), and much more.

Analyzes emerging technologies for the sustainable conversion of various waste and non-waste materials into bioenergy and biofuels Examines a wide range of feedstocks and conversion pathways for liquid and gaseous biofuels Offers practical guidance and data on how to conduct lifecycle assessment, techno-economic analysis, and utilize GIS modeling for a range production pathways

This book explores algal bioremediation as a sustainable solution for tackling environmental pollution. It highlights the latest advancements, challenges, and applications of algae in removing pollutants from air, water, and soil, offering a bridge between fundamental science and real-world applications.The book begins by introducing environmental pollutants and existing remediation strategies, followed by the role of biotechnology in pollution control. It discusses algal bioremediation principles, biosynthetic pathways, and enzymatic mechanisms involved in degrading heavy metals, dyes, hydrocarbons, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and other emerging contaminants. Special emphasis is given to the fate of pollutants in algal cells and the integration of nanomaterials and biochar for enhanced remediation. Further, the book explores algal applications in wastewater treatment, including microbial fuel cells, algal consortia, and genetically modified algae for improved pollutant removal. It also discusses algae’s role in the circular bioeconomy, focusing on biomass valorization through pyrolysis, HTL, and gasification. The final chapter introduces omics technologies, providing a molecular perspective on algae’s remediation capabilities.It serves as a valuable resource for environmental scientists, biotechnologists, researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals and it is also an excellent study material for graduate and postgraduate students seeking in-depth knowledge of algae-based pollution control.
