New Microbial Technologies for Advanced Biofuels : Toward More Sustainable Production Methods /
The world needs renewable and clean forms of energy. Biofuels offer an alternative to fossil fuels, but first-generation biofuels had many challenges to be overcome. One strategy that second-generation biofuels are employing is microbial technology. This compendium volume gathers together recent inv...
