(EnergyAsia, March 5, Thursday) — ‘Biofuels: Biotechnology, Chemistry, and Sustainable Development’ by David M. Mousdale.

Focusing on these areas where technology meets the marketplace, the book discusses different types of biofuels, the science behind their production, the economics of their introduction to the marketplace, their environmental impacts and their implications for world agriculture.

It also explores the scientific underpinnings for the commercialisation of lingo-cellulosic ethanol.

Mousdale also provides the historical context, examining the political and economic pressures that fostered the first large-scale production and use of bioethanol.

He provides an up-to-date account of the biotechnology and biochemical engineering and evaluates the actual and possible industrial processes for large-scale commercial production of ethanol, from monocultures and agricultural waste products.
