  • Comprehensive Methanol Science

    Production, Applications, and Emerging Technologies
    • 1st Edition
    • Mohammad Reza Rahimpour
    • English
    Comprehensive Methanol Science: Production, Applications, and Emerging Technologies, Four Volume Set covers different aspects of the methanol industry including its production from fossil fuels, CO2, and renewable sources to its applications as a clean-burning fuel and fuel additive, an energy carrier, and a chemical intermediate. Methanol is a key building block in the production of various chemicals and is regarded as one of the most promising potential energy sources. It can be used not only as a fuel and fuel additive in combustion-based vehicles, but it also is a promising energy carrier in fuel cells and can be synthesized from several feedstock, including natural gases, coal, oven gas, biomass, and CO2. Best of all, when methanol is produced from waste or captured CO2, it is a net carbon-neutral fuel and can aid in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fighting climate change.This all-encompassing reference will provide readers with detailed insights into the production and applications of methanol. Economic assessment and environmental opportunities and challenges will be covered. Comprehensive Methanol Science: Production, Applications, and Emerging Technologies serves as an excellent resource for students and professors in chemical engineering, methanol engineers and researchers, and energy sector research and development companies.

    Inorganic Chemistry Fourth Edition provides essential information for students of inorganic chemistry and is updated throughout. The presentation of topics is made with an effort to be clear and concise so that the book is portable and user friendly. The text emphasizes fundamental principles—including molecular structure, acid-base chemistry, coordination chemistry, ligand field theory, and solid state chemistry. It is organized into five major themes (structure, condensed phases, solution chemistry, main group and coordination compounds) with several chapters in each. There is a logical progression from atomic structure to molecular structure to properties of substances based on molecular structures, to behavior of solids, etc.The textbook contains a balance of topics in theoretical and descriptive chemistry. For example, the hard-soft interaction principle is used to explain hydrogen bond strengths, strengths of acids and bases, stability of coordination compounds, etc. Discussion of elements begins with survey chapters focused on the main groups, while later chapters cover the elements in greater detail. Each chapter opens with narrative introductions and includes figures, tables, and end-of-chapter problem sets.This new edition features updates throughout, with an emphasis on bioinorganic chemistry and a new chapter on nanostructures and graphene. More in-text worked-out examples encourage active learning and prepare students for their exams.This text is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level students enrolled in the Inorganic Chemistry course. This core course serves Chemistry and other science majors. The book may also be suitable for biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, and other professionals who wish to learn more about this subject area.
