Inhaltsangabe

Biocomposites and the Circular Economy provides up-to-date research results and insights from a multidisciplinary group of researchers across the globe. Topics cover the full lifecycle of biocomposites, featuring detailed research reports, case studies, and comprehensive literature reviews. The book explores various aspects of these materials, including their synthesis and processing, environmental and techno-economic assessments, supply chain modeling, and decision-making frameworks tailored to sustainable practices. Literature review chapters deliver thorough insights into emerging topics. Additionally, all research and case study chapters begin with an overview of related literature, guiding readers through state-of-the-art research and highlighting opportunities for further development.
The book is a valuable reference resource for academic and industrial researchers, materials scientists and engineers, Industrial R&D, and manufacturers working in the research, development, and manufacturing of biocomposites in a broad range of application fields.
