• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Improvements in Bio-Based Building Blocks Production Through Process Intensification and Sustainability Concepts discusses new information on the production and cost of bio-based building blocks. From a technical point-of-view, almost all industrial materials made from fossil resources can be substituted using bio-based counterparts. However, the cost of bio-based production in many cases exceeds the cost of petrochemical production. In addition, new products must be proven to perform at least as good as their petrochemical equivalents, have a lower environmental impact, meet consumer demand for environmentally-friendly products, factor in population growth, and account for limited supplies of non-renewables.

This book outlines the application of process intensification techniques which allow for the generation of clean, efficient and economical processes for bio-based chemical blocks production.

• Includes synthesis and process design strategies for intensified processes
• Describes multi-objective optimization applied to the production of bio-based building blocks
• Presents the controllability of processes where the production of bio-based building blocks is involved
• Provides examples using aspen and MATLAB
• Introduces several sustainable indexes to evaluate production processes
• Presents process intensification techniques to improve performance in productive processes
