This book covers the applications of fungi used in biorefinery technology. As a great many different varieties of fungal species are available, the text focuses on the various applications of fungi for production of useful products including organic acids (lactic, citric, fumaric); hydrolytic enzymes (amylase, cellulases, xylanases, ligninases, lipases, pectinases, proteases); advanced biofuels (ethanol, single cell oils); polyols (xylitol); single cell protein (animal feed); secondary metabolites; and much more. 

Dr. Sachin Kumar is a Deputy Director in the Biochemical Conversion Division at the Sardar Swaran Singh National Institute of Bio-Energy, Kapurthala, India. He was as a Visiting Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, Rapid City, USA for a year. He obtained his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee, India and has more than twelve years of research experience in Biochemical Conversion of Biomass to Biofuels including lignocellulosic ethanol, biogas, biohydrogen, etc. He has completed six research projects and one consultancy project and actively engaged in two on-going research projects. Dr. Sachin has published more than 45 papers in peer reviewed journals, book chapters and papers in conference proceedings and 7 edited books. He has one granted US patent and one filed Indian patent. He has delivered more than 15 invited/plenary lectures and presented more than 60 papers in national and international conferences. He is a recipient of 2016 ASM-IUSSTF Indo-US Research Professorship and selected as Bioenergy-Awards for Cutting Edge Research (B-ACER) Fellow 2016 by DBT and IUSSTF.
