Green Sustainable Process for Chemical and Environmental Engineering and Science: Recent Advances in Nanocarriers covers nanocarrier synthesis techniques, as well as methods for encapsulating bioactive compounds. It explores the tests carried out to evaluate their pharmacological properties, in addition to investigating the recent results of clinical tests carried out for some nanocarriers. This book also addresses the most recent advances in nanocarriers and their diverse applications in modern medicine for the treatment of diseases and diagnostics. Nanocarriers play an important role in improving the treatment of diseases and diagnostic imaging as they can deliver medicines to specific locations for their actions and allow a prolonged release of the active compounds. This creates a need for researchers in academia and industry to obtain up-to-date knowledge about nanocarrier production and its pharmacological and biotechnological applications. This book contributes to this by providing the most recent and relevant topics on nanocarriers and by addressing pharmacological aspects for the treatment of various diseases, in addition to assessing the use for clinical diagnostics. So, it is a useful resource for students and researchers in the field of nanocarriers.

Energy Aspects of Acoustic Cavitation and Sonochemistry: Fundamentals and Engineering covers topics ranging from fundamental modeling to up-scaled experiments. The book relates acoustic cavitation and its intrinsic energy balance to macroscopic physical and chemical events that are analyzed from an energetic perspective. Outcomes are directly projected into practical applications and technological assessments covering energy consumption, thermal dissipation, and energy efficiency of a diverse set of applications in mixed phase synthesis, environmental remediation and materials chemistry. Special interest is dedicated to the sonochemical production of hydrogen and its energetic dimensions. Due to the sensitive energy balance that governs this process, this is seen as a "green process" for the production of future energy carriers.
