Bioenergy

摘要

Developing renewable sources of fuels that are more nearly carbon-neutral and can replace the demand for declining fossil fuels is a must. No doubt, a single source of alternative energy is unlikely to meet all needs; thus, none can be ignored. Biomass derived from photosynthesis is one obvious source, and microbial conversions of biomass are already proving fruitful. This timely volume provides concise views of microbial conversions that lead to renewable fuel sources, and microbial activities sparing the use of non renewable resources.
