Since fossil fuels suffer from dangerous side effects for the  environment and their resources are limited, bioenergy attracted many  attentions in various aspects as an alternative solution. Therefore,  increasing number of researches are conducted every year and the  processes updated frequently to make them more economic and industrially  beneficial. Advances in Bioenergy and Microfluidic Applications reviews  recent developments in this field and covers various advanced  bio-applications, which rarely are reviewed elsewhere. The chapters are  started from converting biomass to valuable products and continues with  applications of biomass in water-treatment, novel sorbents and  membranes, refineries, microfluidic devices and etc. The book covers  various routes for gaining bioenergy from biomass. Their composition,  carbon contents, heat production capacities and other important factors  are reviewed in details in different chapters. Then, the processes for  upgrading them directly and indirectly (using metabolic engineering and  ultrasonic devices) to various fuels are explained. Each process is  reviewed both technically and economically and the product analysis is  given. Besides, the effect of various catalysts on increasing  selectivity and productivity are taken into account. Biofuels are  compared with fossil fuels and challenges in the way of bioenergy  production are explained. Moreover, advanced bio-applications in  membranes, adsorption, waste water treatment, microfluidic devices and  etc. are introduced. This book provides a good insight about such  bioprocesses and microfluidics devices for researchers, students,  professors and related departments and industries that care about energy  resources and curious about recent advances in related methods and  technologies. Despite other books which review biomass chemistry and  conversion, the current book emphasize on the application of biomass in  the mentioned areas. Therefore, one can gain a better and more  comprehensive insight by reading the book.
