Sustainable bioprocess technologies for urban waste valorization

Industrialization and rapid growth of population have led to an increase in the generation of urban wastes. A significant portion of this waste constitutes the organic fraction which could be utilized as a bioresource for recovery of value-added products (biofuels, biochemicals, enzymes, bioplastics...
