Some of the chemical constituents of biomass are cellulose, hemicellulose and lignins. Biofuels are derived from domestic, agricultural, commercial and industrial wastes. These can be solid, liquid or gaseous. Some examples are bioethanol, biodiesel, syngas, ethanol fuels, etc. Some of the diverse topics covered in this book address the varied aspects of biomass and biofuels. It elucidates new production techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary approach.
