Bio-Based Materials and Waste for Energy Generation and Resource Management

<p><i>Bio-Based Materials and Wastes for Energy Generation and Resource Management</i> is the fifth and final volume in the series, <i>Advanced Zero Waste Tools: Present and Emerging Waste Management Practices</i>. It addresses processes and practices for utilizing bio-based materials and wastes to support efforts to promote a more sustainable society and provide readers with a better understanding of the major mechanisms required to achieve zero waste in different fields. This book covers numerous mechanisms supported by scientific evidence and case studies, as well as in-depth flowcharts and process diagrams to allow for readers to adopt these processes.</p> <p>Summarizing present and emerging zero waste tools on the scale of both experimental and theoretical models, <i>Advanced Zero Waste Tools </i>is the first step toward understanding the state-of-the-art practices in making the zero waste goal a reality. In addition to environmental and engineering principles, it also covers economic, toxicologic, and regulatory issues, making it an important resource for researchers, engineers, and policymakers working toward environmental sustainability.</p>
