This book derives an explicit analytical pattern (or framework)
that permits the examination and optimization of biogas production
systems. It provides a concise overview of the current status of
biogas and biogas coupled agricultural systems in China, and
introduces evaluation methods for energy efficiency, environmental
emissions, economic performance and sustainability assessment
approaches. Based on empirical studies, it also explores future
options for the system development by focusing on emissions
mitigation, biogas energy efficiency and system sustainability.
Systematic methods of life cycle assessment and thermodynamic
analysis may provide new angles for biogas system evaluation. The
system discussed is not only a biogas producer, but also a
biogas-linked ecological agricultural system, which has the
potential to broaden the applicable scopes of renewable energy and
eco-agricultural management. The comprehensive, in-depth knowledge
and experience presented provide new analytical approaches for
researchers in relevant fields and shed light on the construction
and operation of emerging anaerobic digestion and biogas
industries. This book is a valuable resource for researchers
focusing on biogas system modeling, project managers and
policymakers.
Grauzone and Completion of Meiosis During Drosophila Oogenesis
describes the work behind a major, award winning discovery: the
establishment of a new pathway that specifically regulates the
female meiosis, a process essential for sexual reproduction. This
book chronicles a new gene mapping method and the cloning and
documentation of several types of genes that were proven to have
significant influence on the cell cycle. It is of interest to
anyone doing work with fruit flies, both graduate students and
principal investigators.
This book provides an overview of electronic and optical properties
of graphite-related systems. It presents a well-developed and
up-to-date theoretical model and addresses important advances in
essential properties and diverse quantization phenomena. Key
features include various Hamiltonian models, dimension-enriched
carbon-related systems, complete and unusual results, detailed
comparisons with the experimental measurements, clear physical
pictures, and further generalizations to other emergent 2D
materials. It also covers potential applications, such as
touch-screen panel devices, FETs, supercapacitors, sensors, LEDs,
solar cells, photodetectors, and photomodulators.

Synapse Development and Maturation, the latest release in the
Comprehensive Developmental Neuroscience series, presents the
latest information on the genetic, molecular and cellular
mechanisms of neural development. The book provides a much-needed
update that underscores the latest research in this rapidly
evolving field, with new section editors discussing the
technological advances that are enabling the pursuit of new
research on brain development. This volume focuses on the
synaptogenesis and developmental sequences in the maturation of
intrinsic and synapse-driven patterns.
Carbon dots (CDs) as an emerging carbon nanomaterial have attracted
considerable attention and have been widely used in numerous
fields. When compared with semiconductor quantum dots and organic
dyes, CDs are a very friendly optical probe with low toxicity, good
biocompatibility and good anti-photobleaching. These qualities give
them the potential to be greener than other types of quantum dots
and organic dyes. Covering several common synthesis strategies,
including biomass synthesis, large-scale synthesis and sustainable
synthesis technology, this book focuses on the green synthesis of
CDs and their applications in the fields of bioanalytical,
catalytic, biomedical, and environmental sciences. It is a useful
reference for anyone working in green chemistry, analytical
chemistry, biomedical or environmental science.
