This important new book covers recent advancements, innovations, and
technologies in industrial biotechnology, specifically addressing the
application of various biomolecules in industrial production and in cleaning and
environmental remediation sectors.
The goal of industrial biotechnology is to develop new techniques and
technologies to transform renewable raw materials into chemicals, materials, and
fuels by the substitution of fossil fuels. With the increase in the world's
population and the resultant growing energy demand, the need for more energy can
be successfully met with the advancements in industrial biotechnology. Currently
across the globe significant research has been undertaken in the production of
cleaner fuels, materials, and semi-synthetic chemicals, with environmental
benefits. Developing
