Achieving carbon-negative bioenergy systems from plant materials / edited by Chris Saffron.

Show other versions (1)

There is a need to develop next-generation bioenergy systems that exhibit net carbon capture. This collection reviews advances in producing next-generation biofuels from plant materials. These address climate change by fixing carbon in co-products. Part 1 discusses key technologies to achieve this g...
