Peatland ecosystems serve an essential role in the global carbon cycle by storing atmospheric carbon as peat, but disturbances can alter natural carbon dynamics. Although abandoned and restored peatlands have been a focus of research in Canada, few studies have addressed decompo…
With increasing biodiversity loss occurring worldwide, there is a need to understand how these losses will affect ecosystem structure and function. Certain species have a greater impact on the structure and function of ecosystems (i.e. foundation species, keystone species, ecosy…
Since the beginning of farming, and even before, humans have been actively modifying our environment in order to harvest biomass. With the ‘Great Acceleration’ of the industrial age, the global system of biomass harvest for food production has become a major driver of Earth syst…
Amazonian tropical forests account for 20-50% of global primary productivity and up to 40% of carbon stored in terrestrial biomass (Phillips et al., 1998). The Amazon is also home to the Earth’s largest river system, accounting for approximately 20% of the world’s total river di…
The use of microalgae culture to convert CO2 from power plant flue gases into biomass that are readily converted into biofuels offers a new frame of opportunities to enhance, compliment or replace fossil-fuel-use. Apart from being renewable, microalgae also have the capacity to …
Improving wastewater (WW) treatment process is a major issue in different parts of the world. For a developed country like the UK where eutrophication is a problem that causes environmental and economical losses, and for a developing country like Jordan that is considered one of…
Energy use and the environment are inextricably linked and form a key role in concerns over sustainability. All methods of energy production involve resource uncertainties and environmental impacts. A clear example of this is the use of fossil fuels which present three main prob…
Now available in softcover! This successful book is devoted to biorefineries and biobased industrial technologies, and, as such, is directed towards the technological principles of biorefineries, green processes, plants, concepts, current and forthcoming biobased product lines, …
This volume reports the latest advances in the science & technology related to the conversion of lignocellulosics. A portion of the volume is devoted to molecular biology of the enzymes & the microbes involved in the conversion. Hydrolysis of cellulose continues to be of prime i…
