Biofuels, bioenergy and food securitytechnology, institutions and policies /[electronic resource] :Deepayan Debnath, Suresh Chandra Babu. - First edition. - London :Academic Press,2019. - 1 online resource.

Front Cover; Biofuels, Bioenergy and Food Security: Technology, Institutions and Policies; Copyright; Dedication; Dedication of Deepayan Debnath; Dedication of Suresh Chandra Babu; Contents; Contributors; Preface and acknowledgments; Section 1: Introduction to bioenergy; Chapter 1: Bioenergy economy, food security, and development; 1. Introduction; 2. A conceptual framework to identify the factors affecting the transformation of food systems into bioeconomic systems; 3. Bioenergy strategies to move toward a bioeconomic system; 3.1. Bioenergy in the bioeconomic system

Biofuels, Bioenergy and Food Security: Technology, Institutions and Policies explores the popular 'Food versus Fuel' debates, discussing the complex relationship between the biofuel and agricultural markets. From the importance of bioenergy in the context of climate change, to the potentially positive environmental consequences of growing second generation biofuels crops, this book provides important insights into the impact of policy, the technical implementation and the resulting impact of biofuels. The discussion of existing issues hindering the growth of the cellulosic biofuel industry and their remedies are particularly relevant for policy makers and others associated with the biofuel industry. Transferring information on bioenergy economy through the discussion of the current and emerging biofuel market, country specific case studies explain the existing biofuel policy and its consequences to both the energy and agricultural markets. Economic simulation models explain the future of the bioenergy markets. Biofuels, Bioenergy and Food Security: Technology, Institutions and Policies is an invaluable resource to the students, scientific community, policy makers, and investors in the bioenergy industry. Students will benefit from a variety of perspectives on major societal questions in context of the interaction between food security and bioenergy. Its review of existing literature on the biofuel marker, investment opportunities, and energy independence provides a broad overview to allow informed decision making regarding the industry.
