BioenergyOpportunities and Challenges

BioenergyOpportunities and Challenges

Energy is one of the prime needs of the modern world and energy demands have been rapidly increasing in the recent years owing to rapid advancements in industrialization and population explosion. Conventional fossil fuels are being depleted at rapid rates and the use of conventional sources such as coal or nuclear sources cause several hazards to the environment. New sources of fuel such as bioenergy are an ideal option for fulfilling ever-increasing energy demands. This important book offers an exploration of these alternate fuel sources including biohydrogen microbial fuel cells bioethanol and biodiesel production focusing on the challenges and factors hindering the real-time application of these bioenergy sources.Researchers all over the world are working in this energy sector and this has led to drastic improvements in bioenergy research. However the technology gap between research and industrial application still exists. This important book offers engineers and technologists from different disciplines valuable information on this multifaceted field. The field of bioenergy is interdisciplinary requiring the knowledge of biologists chemists physicists and engineers. Exploring the current trends and future prospects for biofuels the information presented in this book will be valuable to the international industrial community for identifying new options to circumvent problems that exist in bioenergy applications. Topics include: • Thermophilic biohydrogen production• Bio-hydrogen production• Microbial fuel cells as a promising alternative energy source• Microbial fuel cell applications• Potential of Pscillatoria annae in producing bioethanol • Potential of lignocellulosic biofuels • Biodiesel production• Reactor designs for biodesel production• Long-term storage stability of Pongamia pinnata and Jatropha curcus biodiesel

Technologies for Value Addition in Food Products and Processes

Technologies for Value Addition in Food Products and Processes

The new volume looks at some important emerging food processing technologies in light of the demand for functional food products and high-value and nutritionally rich products. Technologies for Value Addition in Food Products and Processes covers a selection of important recent developments in food processing that work to enrich or maintain nutritional value of food products including such applications as non-thermal plasma refractance window drying extrusion enzyme immobilization and dry fractionation. Dry fractionation in particular has emerged as a sustainable alternative to wet processes in last three decades for producing protein concentrates from legumes. Several chapters on fish processing cover both traditional knowledge and advances in fish processing technologies. A chapter on bioethanol production discusses the past and present status of the industry focusing on economic feasibility and environmental viability. A chapter also discusses traditional fermentation process and nutritional aspects of ethnic foods followed by the Rabha-Hasong Mishing and Karbi communities of Assam India. With the contribution from experts in their respective fields this volume provides new information on novel food processing technologies.
