Ishola1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (349 pages)Green Energy and Technology,1865-35373-031-36541-0 Introduction: Benefits, prospects, and challenges of bioethanol production -- Novel and cost-effective feedstock for sustainable bioethanol production -- Feedstock Conditioning and pretreatments (physical, chemical, and intensification assistance) -- Current status on substrate hydrolysis to fermentable sugars -- Bioethanol production from novel starch sources -- Bioethanol production from lignocellulosic wastes: potentials and challenges -- Bioethanol production from microalgae: potentials and challenges -- Bioethanol production via fermentation: microbes, process modeling and optimization -- Bioethanol recovery and dehydration techniques -- Ethanol utilization in spark ignition engines and emission characteristics -- Overview of commercial bioethanol production plants -- Techno-economic evaluation, Life cycle analysis of ethanol production -- Concluding remarks and future directions.This book looks deeply into the prospects for using ethanol as a greener alternative to fossil fuels and the technical and scientific issues that surround them. Ethanol, with its numerous advantages, has emerged as a promising contender to replace gasoline as a fuel source. Currently, it is commercially available as a blend with gasoline, commonly known as E10 and E25, utilizing various ratios of ethanol. Despite its clear benefits over gasoline, the widespread adoption of ethanol as a fuel remains hindered by its limited availability. In this insightful book, we aim to explore the multifaceted challenges surrounding ethanol's full integration into our energy landscape, employing a comprehensive approach through review manuscripts. Leading worldwide experts, known for their deep understanding of ethanol as a fuel, have contributed to the book. Their valuable insights and contributions enrich the book's content, offering readers a comprehensive exploration of the subject matter. This book is a compelling resource for researchers, energy professionals, and anyone interested in understanding the challenges and opportunities associated with the integration of ethanol as a substitute for gasoline.Green Energy and Technology,1865-3537Renewable energy sourcesChemical engineeringEnvironmental engineeringBioorganic chemistryRenewable EnergyEnvironmental Process EngineeringBioorganic ChemistryRenewable energy sources.Chemical engineering.Environmental engineering.Bioorganic chemistry.Renewable Energy.Environmental Process Engineering.Bioorganic Chemistry.662.6692662.6692Betiku Eriola1425231Ishola Mofoluwake M1425232MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910742490803321Bioethanol: A Green Energy Substitute for Fossil Fuels3565638UNINA
