Advances in 2nd Generation of Bioethanol Production
Woodhead Publishing (Verlag)
978-0-12-818862-0 (ISBN)
Its interdisciplinary approach, drawing upon plant biology, chemistry, biochemistry, microbiology, and genetics, makes Advances in 2nd Generation of Bioethanol Production a must-have reference for researchers in academia and industry R&D. It allows them to compare challenges and opportunities of new technologies and identify the gaps where new technology is needed. Practitioners in the industry also benefit from the information on working principles, design and control of the bioethanol production process, highlighting areas where technology innovation and investment should be placed. Graduate students and researchers newly entered in this field find here a key-resource to thoroughly understand the process as well as the fundamentals of bioethanol and bioproducts production from lignocellulosic biomass.
Xin Lu is currently professor, Dean of College of Food Science and Engineering at Northwest A&F University. He studied at Xinjiang University and Northwest A&F University from 1993-2000. In 2004, he gained his PhD at Jiangnan University. After that, he worked as post-doc at Kyoto University (Japan) with key interests on agricultural and food wastes utilization, biomass saccharization, and bioethanol production. In 2009, he was appointed as full associate professor and started his own lab. His group studies various aspects of bioethanol production, e.g. subcritical water pretreatment, closed circuit fermentation, biofuel production using different agricultural wastes, and microbial community dynamics during fermentation. This research results, for example, in increasing knowledge about the clean bioethanol production and in expanding the pool of bioethanol feedstock.
