Innovations in Thermochemical Technologies for Biofuel ProcessingAuthor(s): Sonil Nanda, Dai-Viet N. Vo\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Elsevier - Health Sciences Division, United States\nImprint: Elsevier - Health Sciences Division\nISBN-13: 9780323855860, 978-0323855860\nSynopsis\nInnovations in Thermochemical Technologies for Biofuel Processing broadly covers current technologies in alternate fuels and chemical production, a few of which include biomass-to-liquid, biomass-to-gas and gas-to-liquid biomass conversion technologies. The topics in this book include elaborative discussions on biomass feedstocks, biomass-to-liquid technologies (liquefaction, pyrolysis and transesterification), biomass-to-gas technologies (gasification), gas-to-liquid technologies (syngas fermentation and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis), co-processing technologies, fuel upgrading technologies (hydrotreating and reforming), novel catalyst development for biorefining, biorefining process optimization, unit operat.
