Inhaltsangabe

Plant Biomass Application: Materials, Modification and Characterization focuses on the unique properties associated with plant biomass, from their biodegradable, non toxic, and safe for handling characteristics to their potential in developing sustainable, climate protecting products. The book covers all aspects of plant biomass materials opportunities, with a focus on the value-added product generated from plant biomass such as polymers, composites, transportation fuels, chemical intermediates/bulk chemicals, or sources of heat and generated power. The conversion of plant biomass into materials product such as plastics, fabrics, and carpets and specialty chemicals presents exciting possibilities for replacing traditionally used fossil fuels. Sections in this new release provide in-depth discussion on the materials derived from plant biomass and their current and potential future applications. Leading researchers from industries, academics, government, and private research institutions across the globe provided insights, making it an important reference for researchers and academics seeking to maximize plant biomass potential.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Plant Biomass Application: Materials, Modification and Characterization focuses on the unique properties associated with plant biomass, from their biodegradable, non toxic, and safe for handling characteristics to their potential in developing sustainable, climate protecting products. Plant biomass has found many applications in the fields of biomedical, food, packaging, electronics, automotive, sensors, and textile industry, however there are very few books dealing in depth with materials derived from plant biomass for versatile application fields. This book covers all aspects of plant biomass materials opportunities with focus on the value-added product generated from plant biomass such as polymers, composites, transportation fuels, chemical intermediates/bulk chemicals, or sources of heat and generated power. The conversion of plant biomass into materials product such as plastics, fabrics, and carpets and specialty chemicals, presents exciting possibilities for replacing traditionally used fossil fuels. There are higher value, and more attractive, uses for for plant biomass use than just as fuel. Meanwhile, most agriculture, forestry, and food wastes contain ligno-cellulosic resource creating a vast and diverse resource generating system for plant biomass. Plant Biomass Materials provides and in-depth discussion of the materials derived from plant biomass and their current and potential future applications. Leading researchers from industries, academics, government and private research institutions across the globe have provided their insights, making it an important reference for researchers and academics seeking to maximize plant biomass potential.
