Microbial Cell Factories in Food Waste Biorefinery, 1st Edition, delivers a comprehensive reference on converting discarded organic matter into usable bio-energy and biological materials. Published by Elsevier, this reference provides scientists, academic researchers, biorefinery engineers, and advanced students with actionable technical frameworks for deploying fungi, bacteria, and microalgae across commercial and environmental operations.
The volume systematically examines major bio-energy conversion pathways and microbial processing techniques. It highlights high-efficiency fermentation protocols for bio-ethanol production alongside established chemical and biological routes for generating biohydrogen, biogas, and methane from organic streams. Beyond gaseous and liquid fuel synthesis, the work reviews specialized processing methods, detailing operational parameters for thermal pyrolysis alongside the vermicomposting of slow-degrading food waste.
By consolidating biological waste processing protocols into a structured research reference, this volume supports academic investigators and industrial specialists who aim to analyze, design, or implement scalable waste recovery infrastructure.
