Determination of the environmental implications of bio-energy production using a life-cycle assessment approach. 330 $aThis book is written for scientists and practitioners interested in deepening their knowledge of the sustainable production of bioenergy from wood in tropical and sub-tropical countries. Utilising the value chain concept, this book outlines the necessary aspects for managing sustainable bioenergy production. A wide range of topics is covered including biomass localization, modelling and upscaling, production management in woodlands and plantations, and transport and logistics. Biomass quality and conversion pathways are examined in order to match the conversion technology with the available biomass.  A section is dedicated to issues surrounding sustainability. The issues, covered in a life-cycle assessment of the bioenergy system, include socio-economic challenges, local effects on water, biodiversity, nutrient-sustainability and global impacts. Through this holistic approach and supporting examples from tropical and sub-tropical countries, the reader is guided in designing and implementing a value chain as the main management instrument for sustainable wood. 410 0$aManaging Forest Ecosystems,$x1568-1319 ;$v26 606 $aForest management 606 $aRenewable energy resources 606 $aForests and forestry 606 $aMaterials science 606 $aForestry Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22016 606 $aRenewable and Green Energy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/111000 606 $aForestry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22008 606 $aMaterials Science, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z00000 615 0$aForest management. 615 0$aRenewable energy resources. 615 0$aForests and forestry. 615 0$aMaterials science. 615 14$aForestry Management. 615 24$aRenewable and Green Energy. 615 24$aForestry. 615 24$aMaterials Science, general. 676 $a333.794 702 $aSeifert$b Thomas$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298306903321 996 $aBioenergy from Wood$92499310 997 $aUNINA
