From Waste to Energy: Case Studies of Green Technology Implementation offers a detailed exploration of green energy implementation through real-world case studies from around the globe and across various sectors. Emphasizing the transformational impact of practical green technology applications, the book discusses dynamic solutions for converting waste into energy through waste-to-energy projects. In addition, it explores how different countries cooperate to utilize waste-to-energy processes, from waste management to developing international cooperation. Sections address both the economic and practical challenges associated with these technologies, providing a comprehensive assessment needed to evaluate the sustainability of such practices.The book begins with an introduction to waste valorization and explores the various processes and managements of converting waste materials produced by industrial activities into valuable products or energy. Notably, it explores the transformation of agrowaste into biochar, which not only provides a sustainable method of waste management but also acts as a negative carbon technology, significantly contributing to climate change mitigation. In addition to exploring different methods for energy conversion, the book also provides a global perspective through case studies from different countries and regions of the world.Provides insights into unique, sustainable opportunities for integrating green energy technologies globallyCovers green technology implementation across various sectors, including agriculture and industrial wasteProvides examples of implementation of waste-to-energy green technologiesDemonstrates how sustainable practices and industrial waste valorization can yield long term ecological and economic benefitsPresents the pros and cons of multidisciplinary approaches to implementing green energy

This is a book about biolubricants. It provides a general overview of these useful products, paying attention to their contribution to green and sustainable chemistry or the circular economy through the implementation of biorefineries. But also, it is a book about General Chemistry, Physics, Engineering, etc., as this specific subject could act as a cornerstone for many multidisciplinary fields.The book’s chapters include several exercises and questions to track reader’s learning and give  general and specific idea of how biolubricants are not just a promising research topic, but also a practical reality. The main ideas covered in this work are the following: history, origin and use of biolubricants, main chemical routes to produce them and their quality assessment.

The book is a comprehensive exploration of hydrothermal carbonization (HTC), addressing key aspects from its definition and historical relevance to its practical applications and environmental considerations. Throughout its sections, the reader will gain an understanding of the fundamental principles of HTC, including the chemical reactions involved and the catalysts used. In addition, the book provides a comprehensive overview of the various types of waste that can be utilized in the process, from organic sources to industrial and municipal solid wastes. Highlighting the importance in various industries and research areas, case studies illustrating successful applications are presented. A practical perspective is also provided, including exercises for students, exploring laboratory techniques and experiments related to hydrocarbonization. In addition, its focus on research and innovation, addressing current trends and emerging technologies, positions this book as a valuable source for students, researchers, and professionals interested in exploring and developing this field with an emphasis on its potential impact on energy, the environment, and sustainability. The conclusion provides a concise summary of key concepts, a discussion of the future of hydrocarbonization, and an encouragement for students to venture into research in this promising field.
