Microbial Biofuel: A Sustainable Source of Renewable Energy explores microbial biofuel production from a technical standpoint addressing a wide range of topics including bio alcohol, biodiesel, biohydrogen, biomethane, biohythane, jet fuel, drop-in fuel, bioelectricity, bio-oil, biomass to biofuel, carbon capture, and more.

Each chapter provides an in-depth examination of a specific biofuel type, discussing the underlying science, production processes, challenges, and its potential applications. The title draws examples from the latest research and advancements in the field, including cutting-edge technologies, methodologies, and case studies. It covers advances in fermentation strategies and commercial-scale implementation of microbial technology for biofuel production along with comprehensive information on bio alcohol, biodiesel, biohydrogen, biomethane, etc. The book explores practical applications of microbial biofuels and uses real-life examples and case studies. Moreover, the book discusses sustainability and environmental benefits of using renewable energy.

The title is an ideal read for graduate students and researchers specialising in bioenergy and chemical engineering.

He was also selected for the award of prestigious INSA Teachers Award by the Indian National Science Academy (INSA) in 2020. He has served as the National Vice President of the Association of Food Scientists & Technologists of India (AFSTI) in 2019. He has also visited several countries like the UK, the USA, Canada, Switzerland, New Zealand, Australia, Germany, France, Singapore, Malaysia, China, Iran, and Thailand.

Ranjit Gurav is Associate Professor at UPES Dehradun, India. He received his PhD in Biotechnology in 2013 and has since conducted extensive research for a decade in various countries, including the USA, South Korea, India, and China. Throughout his career, he has held roles such as associate professor, research professor, assistant professor, postdoctoral research associate, and young scientist, contributing significantly to advancements in his field. His research primarily focuses on harnessing agriculture and food industry waste biomass, and by-products to produce bioelectricity, polyhydroxyalkanoates, biodiesel, exopolysaccharides, and biohydrogen. Dr. Gurav is highly skilled in implementing microbial, bioelectrochemical, hydrogel, biochar, and self-activated carbon-based technologies for the remediation of organic contaminants and heavy metals in water and soil. Using a microbial system, he has established a unique technology for converting poultry feather biomass into a growth stimulator, and chitin biomass into an antifungal agent. In addition, he developed green infrastructure to manage urban stormwater runoff through biologically active pervious structures. Gurav has secured research funding totalling $100,000 from organizations such as the NSF I-Corps of the United States, FIAP of Texas State University, and DST-SERB of India. Gurav is deeply involved in the academic community, serving as an associate editor, academic editor, topical editor, and editor for ten international journals and reviewer for over 70 international journals. He holds life memberships with the Biotech Research Society of India and the Association of Microbiologists of India.
