_Emerging Technologies and Biological Systems for Biogas Upgrading_
systematically summarizes the fundamental principles and the
state-of-the-art of biogas cleaning and upgrading technologies, with
special emphasis on biological processes for carbon dioxide (CO2),
hydrogen sulfide (H2S), siloxane, and hydrocarbon removal. After
analyzing the global scenario of biogas production, upgrading and
utilization, this book discusses the integration of methanation
processes to power-to-gas systems for methane (CH4) production and
physiochemical upgrading technologies, such as chemical absorption,
water scrubbing, pressure swing adsorption and the use of membranes.
It then explores more recent and sustainable upgrading technologies,
such as photosynthetic processes using algae, hydrogen-mediated
microbial techniques, electrochemical, bioelectrochemical, and
cryogenic approaches. H2S removal with biofilters is also covered, as
well as removal of siloxanes through polymerization, peroxidation,
biological degradation and gas-liquid absorption. The authors also
thoroughly consider issues of mass transfer limitation in
biomethanation from waste gas, biogas upgrading and life cycle
assessment of upgrading technologies, techno-economic aspects,
challenges for upscaling, and future trends.
Providing specific information on biogas upgrading technology, and
focusing on the most recent developments, _Emerging Technologies and
Biological Systems for Biogas Upgrading_ is a unique resource for
researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the field of biogas
production and utilization, including waste-to-energy and
power-to-gas. It is also useful for entrepreneurs, consultants, and
decision-makers in governmental agencies in the fields of sustainable
energy, environmental protection, greenhouse gas emissions and climate
change, and strategic planning.
