    Biofuels and Biorefining: Volume Two: Intensified Processes and Biorefineries considers intensification and optimization processes for biofuels and biomass-derived products in single and biorefinery schemes. Chapters cover production processes for liquid biofuels, introducing all feasible intensification alternatives for each process, process intensification methods for the production of value-added products, the importance of detailed CFD-based studies, controllability studies, strategies for risk analysis in intensified processes, the concept of biorefinery for the co-production of biofuels/biomass derived value-added products, and the importance of process intensification in the biorefinery scheme. Final chapters discuss how to ensure the sustainability of the intensified process and minimize the societal impact of biorefineries through various strategies, including supply chain optimization and lifecycle analysis. Each chapter is supported by industry case studies that address key aspects and impacts of intensification and optimization processes.

  • Descontaminación digestiva selectiva

    • 1st Edition
    • Hans Rommes
    • Spanish
    La descontaminación digestiva selectiva (DDS) es una estrategia profiláctica cuyo objetivo es reducir la incidencia de infecciones, principalmente la neumonía asociada a la ventilación mecánica, en los pacientes que requieren cuidados intensivos, previniendo o erradicando el estado de portador orofaríngeo y gastrointestinal de microorganismos potencialmente patógenos. Este libro explica los conceptos básicos de la DDS para ayudar a quienes se dedican a tratar a los pacientes críticos a mejorar los resultados y la calidad de la atención. Esta técnica reduce la morbilidad y la mortalidad, es rentable y segura, ya que no aumenta la resistencia a los antimicrobianos. La aplicación correcta de la estrategia permite a los equipos de las UCI controlar las infecciones, incluso en las UCI con microorganismos endémicos resistentes a los antibióticos. Es de interés para intensivistas, médicos de cuidados críticos, médicos en formación, microbiólogos y enfermeros de UCI, así como para especialistas en control de infecciones y farmacéuticos.
