Environmental Management of Energy from Biofuels and Biofeedstocks - Singh Kamel

Книга "Environmental Management of Energy from Biofuels and Biofeedstocks" посвящена использованию биомассы как возобновляемого источника энергии. Она представляет собой обзор истории использования биомассы, перспектив различных стран в этой области, технологий производства биотоплива, типов биотоплива, а также способов сделать производство биотоплива устойчивым, экономически эффективным и минимизировать его воздействие на окружающую среду. Книга рассматривает вопросы использования биомассы для производства биотоплива как альтернативного и более устойчивого источника энергии. Она также описывает, как сделать производство биотоплива доступным и экономически выгодным для бедных сельских жителей и как минимизировать вредные воздействия на окружающую среду. Книга является первым томом серии книг "Энергетика и окружающая среда" издательства Scrivener Publishing, которая затрагивает вопросы окружающей среды и социальных аспектов производства энергии в различных ее формах. Следующие тома будут посвящены нефти и газу, ветро- и солнечной энергии и их воздействию на окружающую среду.

This book assesses the essential role of Biomass as an unlimited renewable energy resource and presents the applicable strategies, methods and aspects to ensure its extensive usage. After analysing historical perspective that led to global expertise in utilising the resources efficiently, the book goes on to discuss the effective practices of using the Biomass to produce different types of Biofuels such as Methyl tert-Butyl Ether, Ethanol, Biodiesel etc. An exclusive approach of sustainable and eco-friendly Biofuel production including efficient and effective presentation of resources used in conversion processes is the focus of discussion. This book aims to give relevant knowledge regarding the imperatives for reducing pollution and vulnerability associated with accumulation and disposal of waste products resulting from biofuel manufacturing. By addressing the interrelated issue of Climate Change significantly, the book enlightens upon lucrative standpoints to reach the mutual benefits of both, the producers and consumers of Biofuel. Clearly emphasizing on the key destinies of Bioenergy alongside its potential advantages to businesses, researchers and students, this informative book also cleared the misconceptions and confusions of misjudging this renewable resource.

Biomass is a renewable resource, whose utilization has received great attention due to environmental considerations and the increasing demands of energy worldwide. Since the energy crises of the 1970s, many countries have become interested in biomass as a fuel source to expand the development of domestic and renewable energy sources, reduce the environmental impacts of energy production provide rural prosperity for its poor farmers and bolster a flat agricultural sector. Biomass energy (bioenergy) can be an important alternative in the future and a more sustainable energy. In fact, for large portions of the rural populations of developing countries, and for the poorest sections of urban populations, biomass is often the only available and affordable source of energy for satisfying basic needs as cooking and heating. The focus of this book is to present a historical overview, country perspectives, the use of biomass to produce biofuels, the current and upcoming sources of biofuels, technologies and processes for biofuel production, the various types of biofuels and, specifically, the ways and means to make biofuel production sustainable, economically feasible, minimize environmental damage and to deliver on its many promises. The Energy and Environment book series from Scrivener Publishing and series editor, James G. Speight, aims to cover the environmental impacts and social concerns of energy production in its various forms. This first volume in the Energy and the Environment series offers a comprehensive coverage of one of the fastest-growing and most important sources of energy, biofuels. Future volumes will cover oil and gas, wind and solar energy, and their environmental aspects.
