  • Biomass, Biofuels, Biochemicals

    Biochemicals and Materials Production from Sustainable Biomass Resources
    • 1st Edition
    • Hu Li + 3 more
    • English
    Biochemicals and Materials Production from Sustainable Biomass Resources provides a detailed overview of the experimentally developed approaches and strategies that facilitate carbon-based materials and fine chemicals derivation from biomass feedstocks with robust catalyst systems and renewed conversion routes. In addition, the book highlights theoretical methods like techno-economic analysis of biobutanol synthesis. As academia and industry are now striving to substitute fossil-based chemicals with alternative renewable resources, second-generation lignocellulosic biomass which does not depend on the food cycle has become increasingly important. Lignocellulosic biomass is composed of three major polymeric components - lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. The polymers can be degraded into monomeric counterparts through selective conversion routes like hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose and of hemicellulose to xylose.

    • English
    Indole Alkaloids: Spirooxindole details the multistep synthesis of natural products using schematic diagrams, providing a quick-and-easy way to review and understand new and novel synthetic strategies to construct structural frameworks of natural products. As a volume in the Visual Guides to Natural Product Synthesis series, this book presents the schematic total syntheses of natural products containing a “spirooxindole” core structure. It covers spirooxindole molecules through visual diagrams, highlighting key steps involved in total, formal and semi-syntheses. Sections cover Brevianamide A and B, Citrinadin A and B, Coerulescine and Horsfiline, Elacomine and Isoelacomine, Gelsemine, Paraherquamide A and B, Rynchophylline, Isorynchophylline, and more. Visual layouts provide quick-and- easy access to developed synthetic routes towards the targeted spirooxindoles.
  • Public Responses to Fossil Fuel Export

    Exporting Energy and Emissions in a Time of Transition
    • 1st Edition
    • Hilary Boudet + 1 more
    • English
    Public Responses to Fossil Fuel Export provides wide-ranging theoretical and methodological international contributions on the human dimensions of fossil fuel export, with a distinctive focus on exporting countries, some of which are new entrants into the marketplace. What do members of the public think about exporting fossil fuels in places where it is happening? What do they see as its main risks and benefits? What connections are being made to climate change and the impending energy transition? How have affected communities responded to proposals related to fossil fuel export, broadly defined to include transport by rail, pipeline, and ship? Contributions to the work are presented in three parts. The first part synopsizes the background of the project, outlines major social science theories and relevant previous research, and identifies global trends in energy production. Regional and national case studies related to public opinion on fossil fuel export are included in part two of the manuscript. Part three highlights community-based case studies. Implications for research and practice feature in the concluding chapter.
  • Emerging Freshwater Pollutants

    Analysis, Fate and Regulations
    • 1st Edition

    • English
    Emerging Freshwater Pollutants: Analysis, Fate and Regulations comprises of 20 chapters, all written by leading experts. This book is written in the most practical terms and is easy to understand, with numerous helpful examples and case studies and can be used as a practical guide and important educational tool on issues concerning freshwater emerging pollutants. The organisation of the book exposes the reader in logical succession to the full range of complex scientific and management aspects of emerging freshwater pollutants in the developing world. The book recognises that water chemistry, emerging freshwater pollutants and management are inter-dependent disciplines. The book covers (i) the different monitoring techniques, current analytical approaches and instrumental analyses, (ii) fate and occurrence of emerging pollutants in aquatic systems and (iii) management policies and legislations on emerging pollutants. Thus, subsequent chapters elucidate chemicals with pollution potential, multi-detection approaches to analysis of organic pollutants in water, microplastics effects and photochemical transformation of emerging pollutants in freshwater systems. Whereas, other chapters address oxidation of organic compounds in aquatic systems, biomonitoring systems for detection of toxic levels of water pollutants, and health aspects of water recycling practices. This book melds several different perspectives on the subject of freshwater emerging pollutants and shows the interrelationships between the various professions that deal with water quality issues. Further, within the presentation of each separate chapter is discussion of how the various scientific and management aspects of the subject interrelate.
