With a focus on the latest advances, the book examines the challenges of biomethane production from technology to safety. Sections discuss the fundamentals of biomethane production, examine the latest technologies for biogas upgradation, provide step-by-step guidance on how to calculate and model mass, energy and emission flows from different process and technological configurations, address alternative and combined approaches to biogas upgradation, such as with mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria, consider the socio-economic implications of the biogas to biomethane production chain, and more.
Additional sections discuss biosafety in relation to the technologies and processes discussed throughout the book and assess the sustainability of biomethane through lifecycle assessments and techno-economic and policy perspectives. This is an invaluable reference for researchers and industry engineers interested in biogas upgradation and the production of biomethane, and will be of interest to multidisciplinary teams working across Renewable Energy, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Science, and Sustainability Science.
- Presents a comprehensive examination of the latest upgradation routes of biogas to biomethane
- Provides step-by-step guidance on the modeling and simulation of biogas upgradation processes and technologies
- Analyzes the sustainability of biomethane production techno-economically, socially and environmentally
