Biomass has the potential to become the world?s largest and most sustainable energy source and will be very much in demand. Bioenergy is based on resources that can be utilized on a sustainable basis all around the world and can thus serve as an effective option for the provision of energy services. In addition, the benefits accrued go beyond energy provision, creating unique opportunities for regional development. The current book is the first of a two volume series ?Biomass and Bioenergy?, which is an up to date account of highly important characteristics of biomass and bioenergy. The present book comprising of twenty chapters from distinguished scientists and researchers around the tropics, reporting the diversity of untapped biomass and bioenergy resources, their processing and properties as well as their value-added functions as a bio-based feedstock in a sustainable economy. This book articulately highlighted the usefulness of biomass residues that are mostly known in the tropical world. In this book, the inclusion of a broad range of bast fibres, for example, kapok, pine apple leaf, Indian date fibre etc., mainly existing in the tropics with unexploited potential of vast and wide range value-addition in an energy-intensive world makes perfect sense. Lastly, chapters on alternative energy sources highlight the progress in algal biomass research as well as biomass steam gasification for Hydrogen production. We hope this book will serve as a comprehensive primer for individuals who are interested in learning about the vast potentials of tropical biomass. 606 $aBotany 606 $aBotany 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aBiomedical materials 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aForests and forestry 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aBiomaterials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z13000 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aForestry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22008 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aBiomedical materials. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aForests and forestry. 615 14$aPlant Sciences. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aBiomaterials. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 24$aForestry. 676 $a333.9539 702 $aHakeem$b Khalid Rehman$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aJawaid$b Mohammad$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRashid$b Umer$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298335603321 996 $aBiomass and bioenergy$9799319 997 $aUNINA
