Advanced and Emerging Technologies for Resource Recovery from Wastes - Laleh Nazari Chunbao (Charles) Xu Madhumita B Ray Kartoniert (TB)

This book introduces advanced or emerging technologies for conversion of wastes into a variety of high-value chemicals and materials. Energy and resources can be recovered from various residential industrial and commercial wastes such as municipal wastewater and sludge e-waste waste plastics and resins crop residues forestry residues and lignin. Advanced waste-to-resource and energy technologies like pyrolysis hydrothermal liquefaction fractionation de-polymerization gasification and carbonization are also introduced. The book serves as an essential guide to dealing with various type s of wastes and the methods of disposal recovery recycling and re-use. As such it is a valuable resource for a wide readership including graduate students academic researchers industrial researchers and practitioners in chemical engineering waste management waste to energy and resources conversion and biorefinery.
