Introduction to Bioenergy, Paperback by Halford, Nigel G., ISBN 1783266244, ISBN-13 9781783266241, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US A combination of the knowledge that fossil fuel reserves are finite resources that when burned release carbon dioxide that contributes to global climate change, and the falling price of farms has led to an interest in developing the bioenergy industry. This entry-level textbook provides an overview of bioenergy for non-experts. After introducing the background of why biofuels are needed, Halford covers bioethanol, biodiesel, biomass, and biogas. Throughout, he tries to take a balanced stance and considers both sides of the "food versus fuel" debate. Specific topics covered include the feedstocks being used, the production process, and political interventions. Distributed by World Scientific Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
