In parallel, there is an increasing amount of global solid waste production. A fundamental shift toward greater reliance on biomass wastes in the world's energy system is plausible because of ongoing major technological advances that hold the promise of making the conversion of biomass into high-quality energy carriers, like electricity and gaseous or liquid fuels, economically competitive with fossil fuels. Therefore, waste-to-energy systems have become a paramount topic for both industry and researchers due to interest in energy production from waste and improved chemical and thermal efficiencies with more cost-effective designs. This biomass shift is also important for industries to become more efficient by using their own wastes to produce their own energy in the light of the circular economy concept. This book on "Biomass Wastes for Energy Production" brings novel advances on waste-to-energy technologies, life cycle assessment, and computational models, and contributes to promoting rethinking of the world's energy supply systems.Research & information: generalbicsscTechnology: general issuesbicsscactivated carbon adsorptionalternative fuelanaerobic digestionanaerobic horizontal flow reactorautothermal gasificationbio-based economybiocoalbiogasbiomassbiomass applicationsbiomass gasificationbiomass residuesbiomass valorizationbiomass value pyramidbiomass wastebiomass-to-energybiorenewable energybiowasteboiler efficiencycarbon boundary pointcharacteristicschemical equilibriumcircular economyco-firingco-occurrence analysiscompeting usescost analysisdairy wastewaterdecision parametersdemonstration-scale plantdifferential scanning calorimetrydowndraft reactorelectricity productionenergy efficiencyenergy recoveryforestryGHG emissionsinternal combustion engines-generatorLCAlife cycle assessmentmanuremicrowave radiationMonte Carlo methodorganic wastepeach pruning residuesresult parameterssmall-scale systemssteam boilersstructural parameterssyngastechno-economic analysisthermal treatmentthermal valorizationthermodynamicsthermogravimetric analysistorrefactiontorrefied material propertiesultrasoundwaste managementwastewater managementResearch & information: generalTechnology: general issuesMonteiro Eliseuedt1302973Monteiro EliseuothBOOK9910557306703321Biomass Wastes for Energy Production3026791UNINA
