  • Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure, An Issue of Clinics in Liver Disease

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 27-3
    • Nikolaos T. Pyrsopoulos
    • English
    In this issue of Clinics in Liver Disease, guest editor Dr. Nikolaos T. Pyrsopoulos brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure. Recent studies indicate that as many as one in four patients with cirrhosis develop acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) and 25% die within one month. This issue, the first devoted to this topic, provides thorough coverage of critical clinical interventions, including diagnosis, treatment, and management. It also focuses on early recognition of ACLF, which is important for the initiation of aggressive management and ultimately, saving lives.

    • English
    Recent Trends in Solid Waste Management presents comprehensive information on recent advances in solid waste treatment and management processes. The book covers a wide range of topics related to solid waste treatment, disposal and handling. Readers will also learn about up-to-date/backgroun... information on global annual solid waste generation and effective waste management strategies (recycle, reuse, remediate). Furthermore, future study directions (open questions) are identified. This book will assist both the academic and industrial communities by providing extensive information on waste separation procedures and technologies for solid waste treatment.

  • Solution Methods for Metal Oxide Nanostructures

    • 1st Edition
    • Rajaram S. Mane + 2 more
    • English
    Solution Methods for Metal Oxide Nanostructures reviews solution processes that are used for synthesizing 1D, 2D and 3D metal oxide nanostructures in either thin film or in powder form for various applications. Wet-chemical synthesis methods deal with chemical reactions in the solution phase using precursors at proper experimental conditions. Wet-chemical synthesis routes offer a high degree of controllability and reproducibility for 2D nanomaterial fabrication. Solvothermal synthesis, template synthesis, self-assembly, oriented attachment, hot-injection, and interface-mediated synthesis are the main wet-chemical synthesis routes for 2D nanomaterials. Solution Methods for Metal Oxide Nanostructures also addresses the thin film deposition metal oxides nanostructures, which plays a very important role in many areas of chemistry, physics and materials science.Each chapter includes information on a key solution method and their application in the design of metal oxide nanostructured materials with optimized properties for important applications. The pros and cons of the solution method and their significance and future scope is also discussed in each chapter. Readers are provided with the fundamental understanding of the key concepts of solution synthesis methods for fabricating materials and the information needed to help them select the appropriate method for the desired application.

    • English
    Coastal Altimetry: Selected Case Studies from Asian Shelf Seas provides information on developments over the past decade in the processing of remotely sensed altimetry in coastal areas, with an overview of expected errors and where they stem from, along with remaining gaps in processing. Challenges covered include the retracking of the altimetric signal to account for land contamination, tropospheric water corrections, and tidal model improvements, along with the pros and cons of widely available products. Additional chapters provide recent research in the regional seas of Asia and cover variability, dynamics, predictability and prediction, impacts of extreme events, effects to ecosystems, and more. This book offers readers a dataset that can illuminate our understanding of the propagation of planetary boundary waves that have a significant sea level signal in near coastal regions. As such, researchers and students who have a foundation in satellite altimetry and want to know the latest development of open ocean and coastal satellite altimetry, especially in Asian coastal regions, will benefit from this book.
