  • Energy Management in Homes and Residential Microgrids

    Short-Term Scheduling and Long-Term Planning
    • 1st Edition
    • Reza Hemmati
    • English
    Energy Management in Homes and Residential Microgrids: Short-Term Scheduling and Long-Term Planning provides an in-depth exploration of Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS), with a focus on practical applications for both short- and long-term models. Through this guide, readers will learn how to create efficient systems that facilitate the integration of renewable energy into the grid and simultaneously manage end-users' energy consumption. The short-term operation of Home Energy Management Systems is analyzed through various lenses, including renewable energy integration, energy storage integration, uncertainty in parameters, off-grid operation, outages and events, resilience, electric vehicle integration, and battery swapping strategy.The modelling of these topics is explained with step-by-step instructions, and the parameters and implications are thoroughly discussed. Additionally, the book offers insight into the long-term expansion planning for residential microgrids, providing a detailed examination of dynamic modeling, control, and stability of these small-scale energy systems. Throughout the book, simple and advanced examples are provided, and each example comes with numerical data, detailed formulation, modelling, and simulation.

  • Studies in Natural Products Chemistry

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 78
    • Atta-ur Rahman
    • English
    Studies in Natural Products Chemistry, Volume 78 covers the synthesis or testing and recording of the medicinal properties of natural products, providing cutting-edge accounts of the fascinating developments in the isolation, structure elucidation, synthesis, biosynthesis and pharmacology of a diverse array of bioactive natural products. Natural products in the plant and animal kingdom offer a huge diversity of chemical structures that are the result of biosynthetic processes that have been modulated over the millennia through genetic effects. With rapid developments in spectroscopic techniques and accompanying advances in high-throughput screening techniques, it has become possible to isolate and then determine the structures and biological activity of natural products rapidly, thus opening up exciting opportunities in the field of new drug development to the pharmaceutical industry.

  • Synthesis of 5-Membered Heterocycles

    Role of DMF as Solvent, Reagent, Catalyst, and Stabilizer
    • 1st Edition
    • Navjeet Kaur
    • English
    Synthesis of Five-Membered Heterocycles: Role of DMF as Solvent, Reagent, Catalyst, and Stabilizer helps readers quickly assess possible synthetic approaches. The book's audience, researchers, academic professionals and synthetic chemists both in industry and academia will find detailed information about the synthesis of five-membered heterocyclic compounds using dimethylformamide. Over the years, heterocyclic compounds, especially five-membered, have drawn more attention of pharmaceutical community because of their therapeutic value. The formation of heterocyclic compounds has turned out to be the keystone of synthetic organic chemistry. Dimethylformamide has played an important role in organic synthesis for a long time, and it is frequently utilized as a common solvent for chemical reactions and broadly used in industry as a reagent. It is a unique chemical and can play three other roles in organic chemistry, i.e., as stabilizer, reagent and catalyst. Due to its structure, DMF can participate in several reactions as a versatile building block for several units.
