Biomass-Derived Materials for Environmental Applications presents
state-of-the-art coverage of bio-based materials that can be
applied to address the growing global concern of pollutant
discharge in the environment. The book examines the production,
characterization and application of bio-based materials for
remediation. Organized clearly by type of material, the book
includes details on lignocellulosic materials, natural clays,
carbonaceous materials, composites and advanced materials from
natural origins. Readers will find an interdisciplinary and
practical examination of these materials and their use in
environmental remediation that will be valuable to environmental
scientists, materials scientists, environmental chemists, and
environmental engineers alike.
This book presents a detailed history of chemical warfare
development during the First World War and discusses design
approaches to gas masks and the performance of new filter materials
that decontaminate chemical warfare agents (CWA) when applied in
the vapor phase. It describes multifunctional nanocomposites
containing zinc and zirconium (hydr)oxides, graphite oxide and
silver or gold nanoparticles as reactive adsorbents for the
degradation of the CWAs vapors. In addition it examines in detail
the surface properties that are most important in the
mineralization performance.

water, the air, and in soil. The book provides up-to-date knowledge
of state-of-the-art materials and treatment processes, as well as
details of applications, including adsorptive remediation and
catalytic remediation. Chapters include the characteristics of
materials, basic and important physicochemical features for
environmental remediation applications, routes of synthesis, recent
advances as remediation medias and future perspectives. This book
offers an interdisciplinary and practical examination of novel
materials and processes for environmental remediation that will be
valuable to environmental scientists, materials scientists,
environmental chemists, and environmental engineers alike.
Advanced Materials for Sustainable Environmental Remediation:
Terrestrial and Aquatic Environments presents detailed,
comprehensive coverage of novel and advanced materials that can be
applied to address the growing global concern of the pollution of
natural resources in waters, the air and soil. It provides
fundamental knowledge on available materials and treatment
processes, as well as applications, including adsorptive
remediation and catalytic remediation. Organized clearly by type of
material, this book presents a consistent structure for each
chapter, including characteristics of the materials, basic and
important physicochemical features for environmental remediation
applications, routes of synthesis, recent advances as remediation
medias, and future perspectives. This book offers an
interdisciplinary and practical examination of available materials
and processes for environmental remediation that will be valuable
to environmental scientists, materials scientists, environmental
chemists, and environmental engineers alike.
