Introduction to Green Chemistry

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2022-03-09
  • -
  • Publisher: CRC Press

Interest in green chemistry and clean processes has grown so much in recent years that topics such as fluorous biphasic catalysis, metal organic frameworks, and process intensification, which were barely mentioned in the First Edition, have become major areas of research. In addition, government funding has ramped up the development of fuel cells and biofuels. This reflects the evolving focus from pollution remediation to pollution prevention. Copiously illustrated with more than 800 figures, the Third Edition provides an update from the frontiers of the field. It features supplementary exercises at the end of each chapter relevant to the chemical examples introduced in each chapter. Particu...

Water and Wastewater Management for Developing Countries

Selected Proceedings of the IWA International Conference, held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 29-31 October 2001. The IWA Conference on Water and Wastewater Management for Developing Countries was the first conference specially organized for developing countries after the merger between the International Association on Water Quality (IAWQ) and the International Water Services Association (IWSA). Its aim was to promote the concept of appropriate technologies for water and wastewater management, and to enhance linkages between institutions, practitioners and research groups working on low-cost treatment and waste recycling systems, and promote collaborative R&D. The outcome was a highly successful...

Integration of Membrane Processes into Bioconversions

Proceedings of the European Membrane Society XVI Annual Summer School on Integration of Membrane Processes into Bioconversions, held August 22-27, 1999, in Veszprém, Hungary. The purpose of this book is to give an overview of the current situation of membrane separation processes in the field of bioengineering and also to describe how their joint application possibilities can be used in both laboratory and industrial scale applications. In commercial applications, focus is centered on the fields of food industry, chemical/fine chemical industry, and environmental protection. Most of the European experts in the interdisciplinary fields of membrane processes and bioconversions have contributed to the chapters in this work, making it the most up-to-date volume currently available.

Automation in Water Quality Monitoring

The need for water quality information is increasingly being met by systems mainly based on automated measurement devices. In order to discuss the state of the art and the future possibilities the AutMoNet 2002 conference was organized to enhance the dialogue between water specialists, plant operators, chemists and instrument suppliers. This interdisciplinary dialogue is essential for the development of solutions for water quality management.The scientific program of AutMoNet 2002 covered a wide range of topics from leading edge sensor technology, wise use of novel technology, data to information transfer, successful end-user applications in municipal water quality management, environmental ...

Water Quality and Environmental Management in Asia

Selected Proceedings of Asian Waterqual 2001, the IWA Asia-Pacific Regional Conference, held in Fukuoka, Japan, 12-15 September 2001. The world's growing population and its rising water consumption are greatly increasing the pressure on water resources; growing wastewater discharges and expanding use of chemicals are severely affecting the water environment. The new millennium confronts the water management profession and society in general with a set of challenges of unprecedented magnitude and complexity, and many of these worldwide problems are seen at their most acute in Asia. The 8th Asian Waterqual conference provided a major forum to address these issues; these selected proceedings co...

Asia Environmental Technologies 2001

IWA Asia Environmental Technology 2001 was an IWA Chemical Industries Specialty Conference which brought together delegates from over eighty countries. A wide range of topics was covered and nearly 150 technical papers were presented. The papers presented at the Conference focused on areas such as new frontiers in water and wastewater reuse/reclamation technology, bio-/biochemical processes for waste and wastewater treatment, clean technologies and the application of advance materials for environmental application. Collectively the papers presented gave a perspective related to the application of membrane and bio-/microbio- technologies in water and wastewater treatment including status, priorities and future direction with emphasis on the Asia Pacific region. This issue contains a peer-reviewed selection of 47 papers presented at IWA Asia Environmental Technology 2001. It provides an essential reference for engineers, researchers and planners working on solutions to the problems of chemical, petrochemical, life science and IT industries.

Energy and Sustainability V is the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Energy and Sustainability, held by the Wessex Institute of Technology. The modern world is highly dependent on the exploitation of fossil fuels. More recently, resources depletion and severe environmental effects deriving from the continuous use of these fuels has resulted in an increasing amount of interest in renewable energy resources and the search for sustainable energy policies. The changes required to progress from an economy mainly based on hydrocarbons to one taking advantage of sustainable energy resources are massive and require considerable scientific research as well as engineering systems. The...

Membrane Technology in Environmental Management

Membrane technology is now widely used in environmental management. Its range of application is growing, based on a steadily growing understanding of the fundamental processes that are occurring. These proceedings report the significant progress that has been made in membrane research, development and applications in recent years, including the fundamentals of reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration and microfiltration, and the study of microbial communities. The 45 papers selected deal with membranes in drinking water treatment; in industrial water and wastewater treatment; and in wastewater treatment and reuse; membrane separation bioreactors; fouling control; and membrane applications in chemical analysis. They form an unrivalled survey of the state of the technology and make a major contribution towards a firm basis for future research and development of membrane technology in environmental management.
