This book compiles research aspects of second-generation (2G) biofuel production derived specifically from lignocellulose biomass using biorefinery methods. It focuses on the valorization of different sources of 2G biofuels and their relative importance. The constituents of lignocelluloses and their potential characteristics different methods of treating lignocellulose, various means of lignocellulose bioconversion, and biofuel production strategies are discussed.

Features:

This book is aimed at researchers and professionals in renewable energy, biofuel, bioethanol, lignocellulose conversion, fermentation, and chemical engineering.

This book covers the multi-tasking nature of fungi for therapeutic applications. It emphasizes the simultaneous metabolic activities and functions of fungi for producing enzyme inhibitors, therapeutic molecules and other biomedical utilities like polymers, nano-composites and biosensors. The fungi are involved in the production of many therapeutically-potent secondary metabolites and polymers. The recent research on fungal bioprospecting is more focused on sustainable solutions for diverse industries and markets for the circular economy. This book also offers current and future research perspectives of fungal bioprospecting. The potential of fungi to act as a bioresource for antimicrobial, antiviral, anticancer, antiprotozoal and antituberculosis compounds has also been discussed.

This book is a reference material for undergraduate students for gaining in-depth knowledge on fungal bioprospecting, particularly fungi''s multi-tasking nature.

This book highlights the types and importance of multitasking fungi and provides critical analysis of fungi involved in production of important enzymes. It also covers additional tasks of fungi such as biosorption, remediation, soil fertilization, and water treatment. This book discusses the types of fungi, their cultivation, execution of multitasking, and the analysis and recovery of products. This information can be used to understand and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of fungi in the production of a variety of products, such as antibiotics, enzymes, and biofuels.

This book would be of interest to researchers working in industrial biotechnology, fungal physiology, environmental sciences and technology, sustainable technologies, and agricultural sciences.
