From Crops and Wastes to Bioenergy: Current Status and Challenges is a comprehensive volume on all aspects of biomass utilization for bioenergy, from the fundamentals to the latest commercial and regulatory issues. The book examines all aspects of biomass utilization, from technologies and processes to products. Sections examine the role of biomass in the energy transition, land availability for bioenergy projects, biomass logistics and supply chain, and assesses the lifecycle of bioenergy systems. Chapters are dedicated to each energy conversion route, including thermochemical, biochemical, and chemical, biofuels synthesis, hydrogen from biomass, biorefineries, electricity generation, and waste-to energy.

Policy and regulatory issues are also considered. Each chapter reviews the state-of-the-art, discusses disruptive technological approaches, and concludes with specific recommendations on how to achieve commercial competitiveness. Case studies provide examples of real-world applications in each chapter.

He holds a B.Sc. degree in Thermal Power Plants from Odessa Polytechnic University (1981) in Ukraine, a M.Sc. degree in Thermal Power Plants – from the same institution and a Ph.D. degree in Steam Generators and Reactors Design from St. Petersburg Polytechnic University (1988) in Russia. In 2014 he did a Visiting Professor internship at Washington State University with a Fulbright /CAPES Visiting Scholar scholarship. He is currently a full professor at the Federal University of Itajubá and Coordinator of the Center for Excellence Group in Thermal Power and Distributed Generation - NEST. He has experience in the field of Mechanical Engineering, with emphasis on Thermoelectric Generation, working mainly on the following topics: thermochemical conversion of biomass, cogeneration, solar thermal, thermoelectric power plants, thermoelectric generation and life cycle assessment - LCA. He has 151 articles in journals, 15 books and advised 27 doctoral theses and 66 master's theses. Manuel Garcia-Perez got his BSc in Chemical Engineering and his first master in Process Engineering from the Oriente’s University in Cuba. He got his MSc and his PhD from Laval University in Quebec, Canada. After completing his PhD he did two post-doctoral assignments at the University of Georgia in US and at Monash University in Australia. He is currently a full professor and chair of the Biological Systems Engineering department at Washington State University. Dr. Garcia-Perez is associate editor of Biomass and Bioenergy, and reviewer editor of the Journal of Analytical and Applied pyrolysis. He also served for six years at the USDA-DOE Biomass research and development technical advisory committee. Dr. Garcia-Perez has made contributions to advance our understanding of biomass thermochemical reactions, the chemistry of pyrolysis-oils and carbonaceous materials. So far, he has published more than 160 peer reviewed publications. Prof. Osvaldo J. Venturini graduated in Mechanical Engineering from Federal University of Itajuba – UNIFEI (Brazil), in 1993, and received his Ph.D. degree from UNIFEI in the field of Energy Conversion. Currently is Full Professor of Thermal Science at UNIFEI, where he has been developing research activities and coordinating projects in areas related to alternative energy sources; modeling and optimization of thermal systems; hybrid biomass-solar systems; LCA; biomass carbonization, waste valorization, oil sludge gasification; sewage sludge drying and gasification, etc. He has published 48 papers in journals, 03 books, 23 chapters in books, supervised 10 Ph.D. and 30 master's theses. Since, 2017 Prof. Osvaldo has been acting as the president of the Support Foundation for Teaching, Research and Development of Itajubá. (FAPEPE). He also is a Productivity Fellow of the Brazilian National Research Council – CNPq
