Biopolymers from Microorganisms for a Green Future

Biopolymers from Microorganisms for a Green Future by Pratima Bajpai is a timely, authoritative guide for anyone seeking sustainable solutions in materials science and environmental biotechnology. Clear, engaging, and forward-looking, this book captures the promise of microbial biopolymers as alternatives to fossil-fuel plastics and as drivers of a circular, low-carbon economy.

Explore how microbial processes produce biodegradable polymers, the science behind production and scaling, and practical pathways for industrial application. Written for researchers, industry professionals, environmental managers, and students, the book connects laboratory advances with real-world sustainability goals — from waste valorization and compostable packaging to bio-based coatings and medical-grade materials. Rich in practical insight, it helps readers evaluate techno-economic viability, environmental impact, and regulatory considerations in different regions.

Why this book matters: demand for eco-friendly materials is global — from Asia-Pacific manufacturing hubs to European and North American policy markets — and microbial biopolymers offer tangible routes to reduce plastic pollution and carbon footprints. Pratima Bajpai’s balanced perspective equips decision-makers with the science, case contexts, and strategic framing needed to implement greener materials across supply chains.

If you’re looking to understand the intersection of microbiology, polymer science, and sustainability policy, this book is an essential resource. Clear, practical, and action-oriented, it guides readers toward adopting biopolymer solutions that support a greener future.
