Inhaltsangabe

Comprehensive resource addressing biobutanol production, recovery, applications, and commercialization through scientific, technological, and economic perspectives

Integrating scientific, technological, and economic perspectives, Renewable Butanol delivers comprehensive coverage of the subject, with information on microbial genetics, various feedstocks, energy-efficient product recovery techniques, high-productivity fermentations, aviation biofuel, and process economics. The book focuses on production of butanol from agricultural residues, municipal organic waste, industrial organic waste, glycerol, whey permeate, CO₂ & H₂, and food waste.

The textbook addresses genetics of butanol-producing microbial strains. Information on the production of butanol in high productivity reactors is presented along with various simultaneous product recovery techniques such as gas stripping, adsorption, and pervaporation. Process integration, process economics, and cost comparisons are also discussed, with case studies included throughout to elucidate key concepts.

Written by a team of highly qualified authors, Renewable Butanol explores sample topics such as:

• Butanol production from cellulosic biomass and microalgae
• Butanol recovery by perstraction, supercritical CO₂ extraction, and ionic liquid extraction
• Separation of butanol by reverse osmosis, vacuum-assisted recovery, and distillation as a commercial process
• Hydrogen production and byproducts separation, transforming corn stover to sustainable aviation fuels through a hybrid approach, and applications of butanol other than biofuel
• Technologies for enhanced photosynthetic butanol production and lifecycle assessment of biobutanol

Renewable Butanol is an excellent up-to-date resource on the subject for academic and industrial researchers working on the production of fuels and chemicals from renewable feedstocks as well as those working in green and sustainable chemistry and chemical and process engineering.
