The term 'green chemistry' was coined by Anastas and Warner in the
early 1990s and it is nowadays the mainstay of designing and
implementing advanced chemical processes that decrease or eliminate
the use and generation of hazardous substances whilst minimizing
energy consumption.Solution Combustion Synthesis of Nanostructured
Solid Catalysts for Sustainable Chemistry is an interdisciplinary
collection of fundamental and applied cutting-edge studies which
highlight general and specific aspects of the synthesis of
nanostructured catalysts through Solution Combustion Synthesis
(SCS), studying their applications from the perspective of green
chemistry.This book intends to integrate the fundamental principles
of the SCS process with its engineering aspects and covers the
synthesis of a wide variety of catalytic materials. This reference
book can be used as a permanent consulting material for students,
researchers and the general readership for green chemistry,
nanochemistry, materials science and chemical engineering.
In recent years, the replacement of non-renewable crude oil by
renewable sources has been addressed, particularly in developed
countries. Its main driving force has been the increasing demand
and limited reserves of fossil fuels, the greenhouse gas effect,
and the need of securing energy supplies. Advanced Solid Catalysts
for Renewable Energy Production provides emerging research on
renewable energy production, catalysts, and environmental effects
of increased productivity. While highlighting the challenges for
future generations to develop in the sustainable energy age,
readers will learn the importance of new approaches not only for
synthesizing more active and selective (nano)catalysts, but also,
for designing innovative catalytic processes that can eventually
meet the growing energy efficiency demand and overcome the
environmental issues. This book is an important resource for
academicians, university researchers, technology developers, and
graduate level students.
