Today's petroleum prices and supply issues mean more interest in biobased surfactants and detergents, which can outperform, synthetic, petroleum-derived, surfactants (biodegradability, biocompatibility, and measures of sustainability). Consumers want eco-friendly and biobased products, leading to increased use of biobased surfactants. This new, must-have book covers biosurfactants: synthesis and applications. Contents include how to reduce manufacturing and purification costs, impurities, and by-products.
