Advances in Yeast Biotechnology for Biofuels and Sustainability: Value-Added Products and Environmental Remediation Applications showcases the uses for engineered yeast in environmental applications, especially as an innovative source of biofuels. Beginning with a thorough review of recent advances and future potential for yeast biotechnology, the book proceeds to outline several options for biofuels, including lignocellulosic biofuels and alternative feedstock production through hydrolysis and alternative value-added products, including industrial acids and bioplastics and applications in agriculture and environmental remediation. Placing case studies at the center of each chapter, this book presents a future-focused perspective on the potential of yeast biotechnologies to support sustainability. Lays out methods, including multiple options for generating biofuels from engineered yeast and several additional value-added products Presents a wide variety of real-world sustainable applications for engineered yeast, with a focus on biofuels production Provides a selection of case studies in other value-added products and applications, including bioremediation, pollution remediation, and biofertilizers in sustainable agriculture

Every year a huge amount of organic solid waste is generated globally. This quantity is expected to keep increasing, making sustainable, safe and environmentally responsible management of solid waste vitally important. Composting offers a circular and low-impact route to managing and treating organic solid waste and produces a nutrient rich medium with uses in horticulture and agriculture.Beginning with a solid introduction to the fundamentals of composting, including bioreactor engineering, energy and mass transfer issues and microbiology, this book then moves on to more complex topics such as compost stability, gaseous emissions and compost uses. With a focus on sustainability, the role of composting in biorefineries and how composting can complement other technologies such as anaerobic digestion and solid-state fermentation are also discussed. This book is a great resource for both students and researchers with an interest in organic waste management, sustainability or the circular economy.
