This edition of the Industrial Bioprocessing TOE features information on the use of thermo-chemical waste treatment processes based on gasification, pyrolysis and carbonization for effective solid waste management, energy, and chemicals production. The TOE covers innovations based on the use of intelligent monitoring systems for indoor farms to optimize resource utilization and crop yield. Additionally, the TOE also covers the use of catalytic processes for the conversion of paper mill residual products into biodiesel which significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions. The other focal point of the TOE is the use of pre-treatment and catalytic pyrolysis processes to enhance biogas production from sewage sludge and the use of air-stripping tertiary treatment technologies for the conversion of wastewater into fertilizers. The TOE also provides the latest innovations that replace single-use plastics by bio-based materials made from food waste and fungal products and the use of low-cost nanoparticle sensors for detecting herbicides and other carcinogens in fruits and vegetables.
The Industrial Bioprocessing TOE provides intelligence on technologies, processes and strategic insights of industries involving bioprocessing, including innovations in the development and production of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, alternative fuels, chemical feedstocks, food and beverages, and consumer products.
