Life-Cycle Assessment of Biorefineries, the sixth and last book in the series on biomass-biorefineries discusses the unprecedented growth and development in the emerging concept of a global bio-based economy in which biomass-based biorefineries have attained center stage for the production of fuels and chemicals.
It is envisaged that by 2020 a majority of chemicals currently being produced through a chemical route will be produced via a bio-based route. Agro-industrial residues, municipal solid wastes, and forestry wastes have been considered as the most significant feedstocks for such bio-refineries. However, for the techno-economic success of such biorefineries, it is of prime and utmost importance to understand their lifecycle assessment for various aspects.
Chapter 1: Classification of Biorefineries Taking into Account Sustainability Potentials and Flexibility
Chapter 2: Fundamentals of Life Cycle Assessment and Specificity of Biorefineries
Chapter 3: Life-Cycle Assessment of Agricultural Feedstock for Biorefineries
Chapter 4: Life Cycle Assessment of Sugar Crops and Starch-Based Integrated Biorefineries
Chapter 5: Life Cycle Assessment of Vetiver-Based Biorefinery With Production of Bioethanol and Furfural
Chapter 6: Life Cycle Assessment of Thermochemical Conversion of Empty Fruit Bunch of Oil Palm to Bio-Methane
Chapter 7: Life Cycle Assessment of Algal Biorefinery
Chapter 8: Life Cycle Assessment and Land-Use Changes: Effectiveness and Limitations
Chapter 9: Modeling Land-Use Change Effects of Biofuel Policies: Coupling Economic Models and LCA
