Environment-Enhancing Energy and Biochemicals Conference II
Description:
Around the globe, energies and carbon dioxide emissions are of great concern to all of us. The energy production from chemicals and environmental protection are two major challenges facing mankind in the 21st century. The main topics of this volume include: issues regarding bio-energy, environment, national security, social and economic development; a new generation of hydrocarbon fuels and cutting-edge technology of new chemicals; biomass production of bio-technology and engineering; biomass conversion and catalysis; the transformation of animal produced bio-wastes, as well as food processing, in the production of liquid fuels and chemicals; for the production of liquid fuels and chemicals from biomass of algae and lignin; bio-energy and chemical production in the waste water purification and water resources; carbon recycling and nutrient reuse.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
The 20 papers selected for the August 2012 conference present the findings of recent research on biomass conversion and catalysis, the transformation of animal waste and algae into liquid fuels and chemicals, possible hydrocarbon fuels, wastewater processing, and carbon recycling. Five papers from Jilin University evaluate the gas permeability of soy protein isolate film, the mechanical properties of cabbage-based edible films and methylcellulose-based films, and microwave and ultrasonic synergistic treatment of methylcellulose/stearic acid films. A team from the HarbinInstitute of Technology builds a carbon emissions rights optimization model under regional economic growth disparities.
