Authors from different scientific and technical backgrounds, from industry and academia, give an overview of the state of the art and ongoing developments. Aspects including bioeconomy, biorefineries, renewable chemistry and sustainability are also considered, given their relevance in this context. Furthermore, the book reviews green chemistry principles and their relation to biomass, while also exploring the main processes for converting biomass into bioproducts. The need to develop renewable feedstock for the chemical industry to replace oil has been identified as a major strategic challenge for the 21st century. In this context, the use of different types of vegetable biomass – starch, lignocellulosic, oleaginous, saccharide and algae – can be seen as a viable alternative to the use of non-renewable, more expensive raw materials. Furthermore, it offers a model for adding economic value to the agro industrial chains such as soybean, sugarcane, corn and forests, among others. This will in turn contribute to the sustainability of a wide range of chemicals, mainly organics and their transformation processes, which are widely used by modern society. .Green chemistryRenewable energy resourcesNatural resourcesChemical engineeringGreen Chemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C35000Renewable and Green Energyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/111000Natural Resourceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U39000Industrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C27000Green chemistry.Renewable energy resources.Natural resources.Chemical engineering.Green Chemistry.Renewable and Green Energy.Natural Resources.Industrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineering.660.0286Vaz SílvioJr.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298599103321Biomass and Green Chemistry1563695UNINA
