About the Series
This book series aims to include books focusing on the bioprocesses in the broad areas of industrial and environmental biotechnology, with multidisciplinary contents incorporating chemical and biochemical engineering, industrial microbiology and energy biosciences where sustainable development is the key theme. The focus of all the books is linked with the sustainable development goals (SDG) with a circular economy perspectives. Each of the books provide state-of-art information and comprehensive knowledge on the subject matter by an international team of experts as authors and have globally recognized peers as editors. The contents are carefully carved to focus on the applications of emerging tools such as machine learning, including artificial intelligence, etc for the evolution of bioprocesses. The series target the academicians and researchers as its primary stake-holders but also is useful for the policy planners and industry persons for which the contents of each of the book is well-modulated.
Following are the primary topics/themes that are included in the book series.
- Sustainable biobased processes and products development
- Sustainable biological waste treatment and management
- Sustainable environmental protection
- Green energy from renewable resources, including bioenergy
- Waste to wealth- fuels and chemicals for circular economy
- Climate change & sustainable developments
