The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Green Societies
This book covers the sustainability issues of a green environment towards economics and society in terms of alteration in industrial pollution levels, effect of reduced carbon emissions, changes in water bodies characteristics with respect to heavy metal contamination, monitoring of associated impact with respect to ecology and biodiversity, impact of reduced noise levels and air quality influences on human health, handling and management of biomedical waste. According to WHO, 80% of people living in urban areas are exposed to air exceeding safe limits. The advent of "sustainability‟ in development science has led planners to apply evolving notions of "sustainability‟ to the contemporary...

Recent Advances in Recycling Engineering
This book comprises of papers from the International Conference on Advances and Innovations in Recycling Engineering (AIR-2021). It highlights indispensable issues, challenges and recommended solutions related to solid waste management and sustainability. The contents deal with recommended solutions and the gap between environmental laws related to recycling of waste and environment threat. Weighing the global economy loss via compromises on industrial growth versus environment provide another dimension to the study and press on the need for alternative practices. Impact on biodiversity conservation and natural resources pollutants is also highlighted. This book is a useful guide for academics, researchers, and policymakers.
Chemistry for Sustainable Technologies
Following the success of the first edition, this fully updated and revised book continues to provide an interdisciplinary introduction to sustainability issues in the context of chemistry and chemical technology. Its prime objective is to equip young chemists (and others) to more fully to appreciate, defend and promote the role that chemistry and its practitioners play in moving towards a society better able to control, manage and ameliorate its impact on the ecosphere. To do this, it is necessary to set the ideas, concepts, achievements and challenges of chemistry and its application in the context of its environmental impact, past, present and future, and of the changes needed to bring abo...
Compounds with Noble Gases, H, O, N, F, and Cl
The volume covers the interactions and compounds of gold with noble gases, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, fluorine, and chlorine. Along with the expanding use of gold in recent years, for example in electronics and in aerospace equipment, there has been an impressive series of advances in the chemistry of gold compounds and of discoveries of unusual oxidation states. Hydrogen forms a nonstoichiometric solid phase, AuHn at high pressures with a maximum value of n=0.43. Hydrides such as AuH exist only in the gaseous state. The predominant oxide is that of gold(III), Au2O3. The lower-valent oxides Au2O and AuO form during anodic oxidation of gold. There still is no evidence for definite gold(I) an...
Cognitive Stimulants: from Caffeine to Cannabinoids - Current and Future Perspectives
Cognitive enhancement is a broad concept potentially achieved in simple ways such as eating healthily or regularly practicing physical activity. Among certain portions of the population, for instance, among students or professionals, seeking for immediate response and action, there has been a growing demand for stimulant substances to enhance cognitive abilities. These are consumed either to address the need for long-lasting and sustained focus or to stay alert for strenuous activities. Cognitive stimulants include an array of substances either available in commerce, for instance, CNS stimulants such as Ritalin and Piracetam, or deriving from natural compounds such as green tea, caffeine, or phytocannabinoids, just to mention a few. However, these are not the only CNS stimulants adopted for cognitive enhancement. There is in fact a large consumption of potential substances of abuse, such as amphetamines, to enhance cognitive and perceptual abilities.
