Utilising the value chain concept, this book outlines the necessary aspects for managing sustainable bioenergy production. A wide range of topics is covered including biomass localization, modelling and upscaling, production management in woodlands and plantations, and transport and logistics. Biomass quality and conversion pathways are examined in order to match the conversion technology with the available biomass. A section is dedicated to issues surrounding sustainability. The issues, covered in a life-cycle assessment of the bioenergy system, include socio-economic challenges, local effects on water, biodiversity, nutrient-sustainability and global impacts. Through this holistic approach and supporting examples from tropical and sub-tropical countries, the reader is guided in designing and implementing a value chain as the main management instrument for sustainable wood. 000696860 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed January 5, 2014). 000696860 650_0 $$aBiomass energy$$zTropics. 000696860 650_0 $$aLife sciences. 000696860 650_0 $$aForests and forestry. 000696860 650_0 $$aRenewable energy sources. 000696860 650_0 $$aMaterials. 000696860 7001_ $$aSeifert, Thomas,$$eeditor of compilation. 000696860 830_0 $$aManaging forest ecosystems ;$$vv. 26. 000696860 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696860 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-7448-3$$zOnline Access 000696860 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696860$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696860 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696860 980__ $$aBIB 000696860 982__ $$aEbook 000696860 983__ $$aOnline 000696860 994__ $$a92$$bISE
