Biofuels and Sustainability: Life Cycle Assessments, System Biology, Policies, and Emerging Technologies de Daochen Zhu

Biofuels and Sustainability: Life Cycle Assessments, System Biology, Policies, and Emerging Technologies: Woodhead Series in Bioenergy

Editat de Daochen Zhu, Mudasir Ahmad Dar, Mohd. Shahnawaz
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 oct 2024

Notăm cu interes apariția volumului Biofuels and Sustainability, o resursă tehnică ce integrează o documentație vastă privind amprenta de carbon și protocoalele de evaluare a ciclului de viață (LCA) pentru bioproduse. Resursele de date furnizate în primele secțiuni sunt esențiale pentru inginerii care urmăresc conformitatea cu standardele internaționale de sustenabilitate, oferind o bază solidă pentru tranziția de la prima generație de biocombustibili către soluții avansate din materii prime lignocelulozice.

Structura volumului este riguros segmentată în cinci părți, pornind de la o perspectivă conceptuală asupra necesității combustibililor alternativi și progresând spre soluții tehnice complexe. Apreciem în mod deosebit capitolele dedicate biologiei sistemice și ingineriei metabolice, care propun utilizarea microorganismelor și a insectelor (precum termitele) ca bioreactoare naturale. Această abordare biomimetică diferențiază lucrarea de alte titluri tehnice prin focusul pe eficiența biochimică brută. Complementar volumului Advanced Transport Biofuels, care se concentrează pe proprietățile de combustie și tehnico-economie, Biofuels and Sustainability extinde analiza către zona politicilor regionale și a impactului asupra resurselor de apă, oferind o viziune sistemică asupra decarbonizării transporturilor.

Editorii, printre care se numără Daochen Zhu, mențin rigoarea analitică observată și în alte lucrări precum Microplastic Pollution, unde accentul a fost pus pe reglementări și strategii de atenuare la nivel global. În lucrarea de față, această expertiză se traduce printr-o analiză critică a barierelor tehnologice și a valorificării reziduurilor, transformând volumul într-un instrument de lucru pentru optimizarea proceselor industriale de pretratare a biomasei.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm acest volum specialiștilor în inginerie energetică și cercetătorilor care au nevoie de date concrete despre ciclul de viață al biocombustibililor de generația a 2-a și a 3-a. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a intersecției dintre biologia sistemică și politicile de mediu, primind soluții aplicabile pentru reducerea amprentei de carbon în conformitate cu standardele actuale din industria bioenergiei.

Descriere scurtă

Biofuels and Sustainability: Life-cycle Assessments, System Biology, Policies, and Emerging Technologies presents the current progress and challenges related to the sustainability of biofuels. Addressing a wide range of issues, the book examines the methods and technologies, policies for sustainable biofuels, impacts of advanced fuels, recent advances, and future research prospects. Reflecting new developments, emphasis is given to new biological/biochemical approaches that offer the most efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable strategies for biofuel production.

Divided into five parts, the first provides an overview of biofuels, the need for alternate fuels, carbon footprints, life cycle assessments, environmental aspects, various generations of biofuels, biofuel production from lignocellulosic material, and artificial intelligence in biofuel production. Part 2 examines the various methods and technologies for biofuels production, with case studies from the USA, UK, and Brazil. Part 3 explores the policies for sustainable biofuels, including current standards, with applications from the USA, European Union, Asia, and Africa. Part 4 analyses the impacts of advanced fuels in the decarbonization of transport, climate change mitigation, sustainable agriculture, and water resources, with perspectives from developed and developing countries. Finally, Part 5 critically reviews the recent advances and future research prospects related to termites, insects, metabolic engineering, microorganisms, and bioreactors.


  • Provides carbon footprints and lifecycle assessments of biofuel and bioproduct production from 2nd and 3rd generation feedstocks and compliance with the international standards
  • Highlights the emerging applications of systems biology in biofuel and bioenergy production, including biomimetics and protein engineering
  • Analyzes the sustainable production of biofuels at various stages, such as feedstock production, biomass pre-treatment and novel bioprospection
  • Explains the technological challenges of biofuel production, designing novel bioreactors, and value-added processing of biofuel residues
  • Discusses and analyses biofuel and bioenergy policies from various countries and various regions of the world
