Biocomposites and the Circular Economy

Grab attention with a clear roadmap to sustainable materials: Biocomposites and the Circular Economy by Abbas S. Milani is a timely, practical guide for engineers, designers, policy makers and researchers navigating the shift from linear manufacturing to circular, bio-based systems.

This book dives into the science and strategy behind biocomposites—materials made from renewable fibers and bio-based matrices—and explains how they fit into the broader circular economy paradigm. Clear explanations of lifecycle thinking, design for disassembly, recyclability, and end-of-life scenarios make complex concepts accessible to both technical and managerial readers. Real-world examples illustrate applications across automotive, construction, packaging and consumer goods, helping readers connect theory to market realities.

Packed with actionable frameworks and critical analysis, the text equips manufacturers and sustainability teams to evaluate material choices, reduce carbon footprints, and meet regional regulations in Europe, North America, Asia and emerging markets. For students and academics, it offers a coherent synthesis of current research and future directions in sustainable materials science.

If you’re looking to adopt resilient materials strategies or deepen your understanding of bio-based solutions, this book clarifies trade-offs, opportunities and implementation pathways. Practical, authoritative and forward-looking, Biocomposites and the Circular Economy is your reference for designing materials that perform today and regenerate tomorrow.
