Expounds on the conversion of waste materials into valuable products, such as chemicals, materials, and fuels. Discusses the innovation, design, and impact of oleaginous microbial regimes toward the utilization of waste biomass for value-added microbial products.
This new book is one of the first books on waste biomass valorization utilizing oleaginous
microbes, exploring the conversion of waste materials into valuable products, such as chemicals,
materials, and fuels. It discusses the innovation, design, and impact of oleaginous microbial
regimes toward the utilization of waste biomass for value-added microbial products. It places
special emphasis on oleaginous microbial biosynthetic pathways and their bioengineering
aspects for improving the generation of value-added biomolecules for sustainable biorefineries.
Key features:
• Discusses the significance of oleaginous microbes on value-added biomolecule production
• Looks at oleaginous microbial solutions for agroindustrial wastes, industrial waste, agroforest
residues, and electronic waste
• Explores the role of oleaginous microbes in bioenergy generation and other products
