This volume provides the technical information required for the production of biofuels and
chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass. It starts with a brief overview of the importance
applications and production processes of different lignocellulosic products. Further chapters
review the perspectives of waste-based biofuels and biochemicals the pretreatment of
lignocellulosic biomass for biofuel production cellulolytic enzyme systems for the hydrolysis
of lignocelluloses and basic and applied aspects of the production of bioethanol biogas
biohydrogen and biobutanol from lignocelluloses. This book is recommended for researchers and
engineers and particularly students taking biofuel courses at graduate level.
