Description
Value Addition to Pulp and Paper Industry Wastes: Towards a Sustainable Circular Economy examines different types of wastes generated in pulp and paper mills and provides sustainable routes for the production of high value-added products. This book will assess methods to increase the pulp and paper sectors' circularity. Through conventional and integrated biorefinery technology, this book examines the ample variety and quantity of waste generated from pulp and paper mills which can be converted into wealth. It will also focus on technology that is used to convert pulp and paper industry wastes into value-added products.
- Evaluates strategies for improving the circularity of the pulp and paper industries
- Highlights technology to transform the wastes from pulp and paper industries to value-added products
- Discusses conventional and integrated biorefinery technology
