Elsevier Advances in Biohydrogen and Bioenergy: Sustainable Pathways, Waste Valorisation, and Emerging Technologies

Advances in Biohydrogen and Bioenergy: Sustainable Pathways, Waste Valorisation, and Emerging Technologies delves into the transformative potential of biohydrogen production, microbial fuel cells, and various thermal processes, emphasizing their role in converting organic waste and wastewater into valuable energy sources. The book is structured into four sections, beginning with the fundamentals of bioenergy from waste and the principles of biohydrogen production. In addition, it explores key technologies for bioenergy production, including microbial fuel cells, microbial electrolysis cells, and thermal conversion processes such as hydrothermal treatment and gasification for biogas production. Other sections focus on feedstock and waste valorization, discussing the use of organic waste and algae in bioenergy systems. Finally, the book addresses the integration and practical applications of these technologies, examining system integration, economic viability, and policy considerations. This is a vital resource for a diverse audience, including researchers in chemical engineering, biotechnology, and environmental engineering, as well as industry professionals and policymakers. Provides extensive information on biohydrogen production, microbial fuel cells, thermal valorization, and gasification Focuses on how each technology can be applied to convert organic waste into renewable energy Includes real-world examples and case studies that illustrate the successful implementations of bioenergy technologies Bridges multiple fields, including chemical engineering, biotechnology, and environmental engineering
