Produktbeschreibung
Bioconversion of agricultural and industrial wastes into useful products plays an important role both in the economy and in the prevention of environmental pollution. This book presents technological approaches to the biotransformation of different wastes into valuable products and demonstrates developments in the field of organic waste disposal. Organized in four parts, Bioconversion of Wastes to Value-added Products addresses the bioconversion of wastes to (a) new food products, (b) energy; (c) biotechnological products, and (d) describes the construction of biosensors for food control.

Features:
Covers the use of different food waste to enrich meat, dairy, bakery, and confectionery productsPresents new technologies for utilization of wastes from the meat, dairy, and wine industries, among othersPromotes bioconversion of agricultural wastes into energy such as hydrogen or biogasProposes the use of industrial wastes to produce exopolysaccharides using bacteria or macromycetesDescribes design, construction and testing of biosensors for food control
The book is an aid to scientists and engineers contributing to manufacturing of useful products from non-recyclable wastes, as well as the creation of environmentally friendly technologies that protect the environment from potential contaminants.
Autorenporträt
Olena Stabnikova achieved the degree of Engineer-Biotechnologist at the National University of Food Technologies, Kyiv, Ukraine in 1972; later, she received a Ph.D. in Technical Sciences in National University of Food Technologies, Kyiv, Ukraine in 1978. She has 40 years of teaching and research experience in Biotechnology and Microbiology at the universities of Ukraine and Singapore, and now she is working as an Associate Professor at the Department of Microbiology and Biotechnology, National University of Food Technologies, Kyiv, Ukraine. Her research experience includes the supervision and participation in international and national projects on the increasing nutritional and health properties of food products, as well as utilization and management of organic wastes with the production of different value-added products such as compost, microbial biomass, biogas, or hydrogen. She is the Editor-in-Chief of Ukrainian Food Journal, and is a member of the Section "Scientific Problems of Food Technologies and Industrial Biotechnology", on the Scientific Council of the Ministry of Education and Science. Olena Stabnikova has published 150 research papers, 5 book chapters and 2 books. She has a h-index of 20 (Scopus) and 26 (Google Scholar).
