1st Edition
by Madan L. Verma (Editor)
Nanobiotechnology for Sustainable Bioenergy and Biofuel Production provides
insights into the most recent innovations, trends, concerns and
challenges in the production of biofuels. This book highlights a number
of key research topics and practical applications of modern
nanomaterials and nanocomposite-driven enzyme biotechnology for biofuels
production, including the advances in the nanoscaffolds design
(nanomaterials support) for immobilizing bioenergy producing enzymes
(nanobiocatalyst system), the recent trends in biomass processing
(untreated/treated agriculture and food waste, grasses, algal, etc.)
using advanced nanobiocatalysts for biofuels production and the scale-up
study of bioenergy production using nanomaterials immobilized enzymes
and biofuel harvesting using nanomaterials.
At the outset of new
nanobiotechnology applications in biofuel production, there is a need
for a new resource in the bioenergy field. This book delivers an
overview of the contributions of biofuel production and the most
up-to-date advances in nanobiotechnology to a diverse audience ranging
from post-graduate students to researchers in biochemical engineering,
biotechnology, bioremediation and environmental studies and
pharmaceutical professionals.
