Book: Industrial Biorefinery & White Biotechnology

I have contributed to a book entitled "Industrial Biorefinery & White Biotechnology" (ISBN: 978-0-444-63453-5) that will be published soon by Elsevier. The book covers a variety of industrial applications of biotechnology, something that we should see more in the future in order to respond human global demand on energy and materials while caring about our environment and sustainability.
