Solid waste and its sustainable management is considered as one of the major global
issues due to industrialization and economic growth. Effective solid waste management
(SWM) is a major challenge in the areas with high population density, and despite
significant development in social, economic and environmental areas, SWM systems
is still increasing the environmental pollution day by day. Thus, there is an urgent
need to attend to this issue for green and sustainable environment. Therefore, this
proposed book series is a sustainable attempt to cover waste management and their
conversion into value added products.

Preface
The modern era can be called an era of waste. Rapid population growth has increased
the needs of people and accommodating these requirements of a modern, fast-p aced
life has led to the generation of huge amounts of waste. Different anthropogenic
activities result in generation of waste from non- biodegradable plastics to biodegrad-
able organic or biological products (for example from agriculture, animal product
processing, forest product processing, marine and municipal waste, and food, feed,
textile, pulp, leather processing industries etc.). Waste disposal has been considered
one of the most critical issues in current times. Nevertheless, humankind always
surprises with a great ability to turn a crisis into an opportunity.
With this aim in the past few decades, several processes have been developed to
convert these wastes into value-a dded compounds such as: biobutanol, bioethanol,
and other high-v alue essential compounds. Several physical and chemical methods
have been developed to facilitate these conversions and resource recoveries from
waste. But the cost involved, environmental concerns and the non-s ustainable nature
of physical and chemical methods has led the focus to shift towards biological meth-
ods. Among several biological methods, the role of enzymes in these important steps
of bioconversion of waste to value has been critical.
Waste-b ased biorefineries focus on an integrated system for complete valorization
of wastes by generation of value-a dded compounds. The waste biomass consists of
lignin, hemicelluloses, cellulose, starch, pectin, lipids, and so on that can be used as
precursor compounds for generation of several building block chemicals, as well as
fuels. The production of suitable liquid or gaseous fuel and value-a dded compounds
occurs through a series of steps. The role of different enzymes is important to the
biorefinery concept with a critical role in the two most rate- limiting steps of biorefin-
ery: pretreatment and hydrolysis. These enzymes, by their action on different compo-
nents of the waste, can lead to generation of specific oligomers and monomers. These
oligomeric and monomeric compounds can be subsequently converted to biofuels, or
can be used as the building blocks for commercially important chemicals. In order to
understand the role of enzymes in these two critical steps, their source, structural and
mechanistic properties, and technological advancements in the field of enzymology
for their application in waste- to- value generation need to be understood. Thus, this
book entitled Enzymes in the Valorization of Waste: Next- gen Technological Advances
for Sustainable Development of Enzyme- based Biorefinery as a part of the book
series Novel Biotechnological Applications for Waste-t o- Value Conversion consists
of ten chapters under the thematic areas associated with next-g eneration advances in
enzyme- based biorefinery. This book provides insight into a wide range of recent
next- generation advances in enzyme-m ediated biorefinery, starting with the basics of
enzyme- based biorefinery for conversion of biowaste to value- added products. This
book also provides insight into creation of biowealth from biowaste using advanced
biotechnological and bioprocessing technologies, with special emphasis on advanced
enzyme purification strategies, immobilizations strategies, nanotechnological
approaches, and cell surface engineering. Further, this book presents a detailed

overview of next- generation approaches available for integration of bioinformatics to
waste biomass degradation and valorization. Additionally, this book provides insight
into the economics of biochemical conversion based biorefinery. This book will be
helpful to researchers, students, academicians, scientists, and professionals in plan-
ning their future strategies for waste biomass valorization.
