The book discusses the integration of both fermentation and anaerobic digestion in a biorefinery concept that allows the production of ethanolalong with biogasto be used to produce heat and electricity, thus improving overall energy balance. Included case studies based on worldwide projects discuss both risks and challenges. The main studies on the c.
