Advanced and emerging technologies for resource recovery from wastes This book introduces advanced or emerging technologies for conversion of wastes into a variety of high value chemicals and materials. Energy and resources can be recovered from various residential industrial and commercial wastes such as municipal wastewater and sludge e waste waste plastics and resins crop residues forestry residues and lignin. Advanced waste to resource and energy technologies like pyrolysis hydrothermal liquefaction fractionation de polymerization gasification and carbonization are also introduced. The book serves as an essential guide to dealing with various types of wastes and the methods of disposal recovery recycling and re use. As such it is a valuable resource for a wide readership including graduate students academic researchers industrial researchers and practitioners in chemical engineering waste management waste to energy and resources conversion and biorefinery.
