Book Description:
|
Promotes the successful coupling of two major technologies--biomass conversion and electrochemistry--in making feedstocks for the chemical and fuel industries. Defines and describes various reactions occurring during the electrochemical breakdown of biomass into fuels, fuel components, and valuable chemicals. Covers the basics of electrochemistry, the available forms of renewable resources, and the electrochemical reactions involving carbon dioxide, lignins, hydrocarbons,...
More DescriptionPromotes the successful coupling of two major technologies--biomass conversion and electrochemistry--in making feedstocks for the chemical and fuel industries. Defines and describes various reactions occurring during the electrochemical breakdown of biomass into fuels, fuel components, and valuable chemicals. Covers the basics of electrochemistry, the available forms of renewable resources, and the electrochemical reactions involving carbon dioxide, lignins, hydrocarbons, polysaccharides, and more. Records all the relevant work being done in this ecologically and economically important field and suggests necessary areas of future research and development.
