Waste Biorefineries: Advanced Design Concepts for Integrated Waste to Energy Processes presents a detailed guide to the design of energy-efficient and cost-effective waste-integrated biorefineries. Integrating thermochemical processing of waste with existing waste-to-energy technologies, the book provides a framework to create a waste related economy, incorporating the latest developments and technologies.Divided into three parts, Section 1 introduces current waste valorization techniques and examines the reasons to modify existing waste-to-energy systems through the integration of new processes. Section 2 explains the design of novel biorefineries, and methods to assess these processes alongside detailed results, including the integration of waste-based CHP plants with waste gasification and the integration of pyrolysis technologies and biogas plants with waste thermochemical processing. Modelling and simulation procedures are described followed by detailed techno-economic analysis. Section 3 discusses the issues and challenges of commercializing waste-to-energy technologies, including uncertainty in waste thermochemical process designs, environmental impact of waste-integrated biorefineries, and the role of integrated waste-to-energy management in smart cities and urban energy systems.Waste Biorefineries: Advanced Design Concepts for Integrated Waste to Energy Processes is an invaluable reference for students, researchers, and industry interested in the design and implementation of waste-to-energy systems, waste biomass-based combined heat and power plants, biogas plants, and forest-based industries, and will be of interest to multidisciplinary teams working across Renewable Energy, Chemical Engineering, Environmental Science, and Sustainability Science.
