It gives a broad overview of biofuel developments from both a technical and an economical angle. The different production technologies for biofuels that exist or are under development are extensively covered in depth, dealing with both first generation as well as second generation technologies. Market developments in the sector, including trends on prices, markets and growth are also discussed. The link between the technical and economical developments are indicated throughout the text. The interactions between the technical, economical and ecological aspects are clearly expressed in this volume and are actually covered here for the first time in a single comprehensive volume. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis comprehensive text will prove useful for chemists, biologists and engineers working in the emerging biofuels industry, for researchers and academics interested in the field, as well as for those active in conventional fuel companies. The book is also relevant to people active in policy or financing, either within the government, industry or academia. This volume offers an excellent source of useful information and allows reflection about the bio-based economy in general. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTopics covered include: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess Technologies forBio-ethanol Production\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProcess Technologies for Biodiesel Production\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBio-based Fischer-Tropsch Diesel Production\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBiomass Digestion to Methane\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBiological Hydrogen Production\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFeedstocks for Biorefineries\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSustainability of Biofuels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e Editors\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWim Soetaert, \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFaculty of Bioscience Engineering, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium \u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eErick J.
