Book excerpt: Thermochemical Conversion of Biofuels from Biomass Feedstock and Solid Waste: Production and Pollutant Control offers a comprehensive summary of the state-of-the-art in biofuel production, with a special focus on pollutants control, which is both necessary and beneficial to the target audience and the development of this research field. Biofuel is currently a major trend due to the existing environmental crises as well as global energy challenges. Developing renewable and sustainable fuels from biomass and solid wastes and minimizing the formation of pollutants during the conversion process are currently of a great deal of academic and industrial importance and draws widespread attention. In addition, studies on the formation and transformation of pollutants such as heavy metals, chlorine, and Sulphur species during the process are usually conducted by researchers in the discipline of environmental engineering and are less known to bioenergy researchers. In this regard, this book serves as a bridge between relevant disciplines and present a comprehensive picture of the whole research field. Provides a state-of-the-art overview of the thermochemical conversion processes and catalytic upgrading reactions and catalysts related to biofuel production from biomass Evaluates the latest processes, reactions, and catalysts related to thermochemical conversion of emerging solid wastes, such as waste plastics and sludge Introduces the formation and control mechanisms of organic pollutants during the conversion and upgrading processes, addressing the perspective of environmental scientists and engineers
