Separations of Water Pollutants with Nanotechnology, the latest volume in the Separation Science and Technology series, offers new solutions for remediating water pollution utilizing nanomaterials with separation methods. Current water purification methods are unsuitable, inconvenient or expensive, so there is a need for new and better processes and techniques. Nanomaterials can purify water by removing pollutants such as heavy metals, pathogens, organic compounds, inorganic compounds, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals of emerging concern. These can effectively replace membrane-based methods if the right expertise is developed—this book helps separation scientists do just that. Existing water treatment problems can be solved by applying a nanotechnology-based processes: antimicrobial nanotechnology, zero-valent iron nanoparticles, nanoadsorbents, nano-enhanced membranes, nanometal oxides, and nano photocatalysts. The current literature places emphasis on materials chemistry rather than the separation methods used for water purification. This new volume presents a collection of chapters that deal with remediation based on separation chemistry.

Vapor Generation Techniques for Trace Element Analysis: Fundamental Aspects provides an overview and discussion of the fundamental aspects governing derivatization reactions of trace-level elements for analytical purposes. Vapor generation techniques coupled with atomic or mass spectrometry have been employed for over 50 years, but their popularity has dramatically increased in recent years, especially as alternative vapor generation approaches have been developed. This book bridges the knowledge gap of the derivatization mechanisms that yield volatile compounds and provides an update on recent developments in vapor generation techniques used for the determination and speciation of trace elements by atomic optical and mass spectrometry. It will serve as a comprehensive, single-source overview of recent developments, providing readers with an understanding of the correct implementation—and limitations—of applying vapor generation techniques to everyday analytical problems facing the trace element analyst.

The volume has as primary focus multidimensional gas chromatography (heart-cutting systems, comprehensive 2D-GC systems and hybrid solutions) and its characteristic features for in depth investigation of complex fractions of odor-active volatiles. Contributions, from outstanding researchers in the field from Academia and industry, cover fundamentals aspects on the physiology of olfaction, the strategies to identify key-odorants from the bulk of detectable volatiles (sensomics), the principles of operation of multidimensional analytical platforms (i.e., comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography – GC×GC; heart-cut 2D-GC, hybrid systems), and the fundamental role of mass spectrometry in providing reliable and informative data. Insights on new systems design and configurations are also provided, including sample preparation and data processing strategies, as important steps of the whole analytical process. Real-world examples cover food volatiles, complex aroma mixtures, odors emitted from industrial plants, volatiles of interest in forensic and medical applications.
