By Haibo Xie, Nicholas Gathergood

Sets the level for the advance of sustainable, environmentally pleasant fuels, chemical compounds, and materials

Taking hundreds of thousands of years to shape, fossil fuels are nonrenewable assets; it's expected that they are going to be depleted by means of the tip of this century. additionally, the creation and use of fossil fuels have led to enormous environmental damage. The iteration of environmentally pleasant power from renewable resources corresponding to biomass is for this reason crucial. This ebook makes a speciality of the mixing of eco-friendly chemistry thoughts into biomass methods and conversion that allows you to take complete good thing about the potential for biomass to switch nonsustainable assets and meet international wishes for gas in addition to different chemical compounds and materials.

The function of eco-friendly Chemistry in Biomass Processing and Conversion positive aspects contributions from top specialists from Asia, Europe, and North the US. targeting lignocellulosic biomass, the main ample biomass source, the ebook starts with a normal advent to biomass and biorefineries after which offers an replace at the most recent advances in eco-friendly chemistry that aid biomass processing and conversion. subsequent, the authors describe present and rising biomass processing and conversion strategies that use eco-friendly chemistry applied sciences, including:

  • Green solvents resembling ionic drinks, supercritical CO2, and water
  • Sustainable strength assets similar to microwave irradiation and sonification
  • Green catalytic technologies
  • Advanced membrane separation technologies

The final bankruptcy of the publication explores the ecotoxicological and environmental results of changing and utilizing fuels, chemical substances, and fabrics from biomass.

Recommended for execs and scholars in chemical engineering, eco-friendly chemistry, and effort and fuels, The position of eco-friendly Chemistry in Biomass Processing and Conversion sets a powerful beginning for the advance of a aggressive and sustainable bioeconomy.

This monograph contains a Foreword via James Clark (University of York, UK).

In 1998, Anastas and Warner compiled the “Twelve Principles of Green Chemistry” [1]. Green chemistry aims to reduce waste, use less hazardous methods to generate the desired chemicals, and minimize the amount of materials and energy.

In addition, potential negative impact on the environment can be eliminated [1]. 1 Oxidation by Nitrogen Dioxide Gas Benzylic alcohols, solid fatty alcohols, aromatic aldehydes, heterocyclic thioamides, and diphenylamine can be oxidized using NO2, in quantitative yield with little waste [3]. 1 shows the oxidation of diphenylamine to tetraphenylhydrazine. Two other methods for the oxidation of diphenylamine to tetraphenylhydrazine using PbO2 in benzene or CuCl and O2 in pyridine are described as “waste producing” [3].
