Thermochemical Conversion of Biomass Feedstock and Solid Waste into Biofuels: Production and Pollutant Control offers a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in biofuel production with a special focus on pollutants control, which is both necessary and beneficial for the target audience and the development of this research field. Biofuel is currently a major trend due to the existing environmental crises and global energy challenges. Developing sustainable biofuels from biomass feedstock and solid waste, along with minimizing the formation of pollutants during the conversion processes are currently of significant academic and industrial importance, drawing widespread attention. Novel processes, reactions, and catalysts are being rapidly developed, and compiling this information is invaluable for keeping the audience informed and up-to-date. In addition, while research on the formation and transformation of pollutants such as heavy metals, chlorine, nitrogen, and sulfur species are often conducted by environmental scientists and engineers, it is less familiar to bioenergy researchers. This book aims to bridge the gap between relevant disciplines and presents a comprehensive overview of the entire research field.Provides a state-of-the-art overview of thermochemical conversion processes, catalytic upgrading reactions, and catalysts related to biofuel production from biomass feedstock and solid wasteEvaluates the latest processes, reactions, and catalysts related to thermochemical conversion of emerging solid waste, such as plastic wasteIntroduces the formation and control mechanisms of organic pollutants during the conversion and upgrading processes, from the perspective of environmental scientists and engineers

Discover the four traits of the best performing, but least known, breakout firms in BRIC countries "Rough diamonds" are the best performing firms in the BRIC (Brazil-Russia-India-China) countries. These firms compare favorably with the top 500 firms and the top 25 manufacturing firms in their countries and comparable firms worldwide, exceeding them profit margins and return on assets over an extended time period. This book outlines who these firms are and explains their exemplary performance through the Four Cs for Sustaining High Performance: Capitalizing on late development; Creating Market Inclusive Niches; Crafting Operational Excellence; and Cultivating Profitable Growth. Offers a description of the four major traits that high performance companies in Brazil, Russia, India and China have in commonContains company profiles from BRIC countries that have proved to be successfulWritten Sam Park the president at Skolkovo-Ernst & Young for Emerging Market Studies and Chair Professor of Strategy at Moscow School of Management SkolkovoThis important resource outlines the four traits of the best performing, but least known, breakout firms in BRIC countries.
