Microbial Energy
About this ebook
The book further examines microbial degradation, where diverse microbial communities break down pollutants and organic waste, providing environmentally friendly waste management solutions.
The book progresses methodically, beginning with foundational principles of microbial metabolism before delving into MFC design, microbial degradation processes, and biofuel production. Real-world case studies illustrate the efficacy of microbial technologies, showcasing data from laboratory experiments and pilot-scale studies.
It emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of microbial energy, connecting microbiology, environmental engineering, and materials science. What sets this book apart is its focus on the synergy between different microbial energy technologies, such as using effluent from waste treatment systems as feedstock for biofuel production, creating closed-loop systems.
It provides a comprehensive understanding of how to design MFCs, optimize biodegradation processes, and improve biofuel yields, offering a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professionals in biotechnology and environmental science.
