Processing of Biomass Waste 1st Edition

Processing of Biomass Waste, 1st Edition by Angana Sarkar and Ulla Lassi is an indispensable guide for professionals, researchers, and students tackling the global challenge of sustainable waste management. This authoritative volume draws a clear path from raw biomass streams to value-added Books, emphasizing practical, scalable approaches that work in urban and rural settings across Europe, Asia, North America and beyond.

Explore clear explanations of biochemical and thermochemical conversion routes—anaerobic digestion, composting, pyrolysis, gasification—and learn feedstock characterization, pretreatment strategies, and process optimization to maximize energy and material recovery. The book blends rigorous science with real-world application: case studies, performance metrics, and environmental assessments help you evaluate techno-economic viability and life-cycle impacts of waste-to-energy and bio-based product projects.

Engineered for readability and utility, this edition equips engineers, waste managers, policy makers and graduate students with tools to design sustainable systems, reduce greenhouse-gas emissions, and create circular-economy solutions. Practical chapters cover regulatory considerations, cost analysis, and implementation strategies tailored to diverse climates and infrastructures.

Whether you’re planning a municipal waste-to-energy facility, researching biofuel pathways, or developing community-scale biomass projects, Processing of Biomass Waste delivers actionable insights and contemporary methodologies. Add this essential resource to your library to transform biomass from burden to opportunity and help drive regional and global sustainability goals.
