Adsorption promises to play an integral role in several future energy and environmental technologies, including hydrogen storage, CO removal for fuel cell technology, desulfurization of transportation fuels, and technologies for meeting higher standards on air and water pollutants. Ralph Yang's Adsorbents provides a single and comprehensive source of knowledge for all commercial and new sorbent materials, presenting the fundamental principles for their syntheses, their adsorption properties, and their present and potential applications for separation and purification. Chapter topics in this authoritative, forward-looking volume include: - Formulas for calculating the basic forces or potentials for adsorption - Calculation of pore-size distribution from a single adsorption isotherm - Rules for sorbent selection - Fundamental principles for syntheses/preparation, adsorption properties, and applications of commercially available sorbents - Mesoporous molecular sieves and zeolites - ̧-complexation sorbents and their applications - Carbon nanotubes, pillared clays, and polymeric resins Yang covers the explosion in the development of new nanoporous materials thoroughly, as the adsorption properties of some of these materials have remained largely unexplored. The whole of this book benefits from the new adsorbent designs made possible by the increase in desktop computing and molecular simulation, making Adsorbents useful to both practicing laboratories and graduate programs. Ralph Yang's comprehensive study contributes significantly to the resolution of separation and purification problems by adsorption technologies.

This proceedings volume contains selected and peer-reviewed original oral and poster contributions to be presented at the 5th International Symposium on Nanoporous Materials, Vancouver, Canada, May 25OCo28, 2008. It presents recent scientific advances in the area of nanoporous materials, especially those with ordered pores of sizes between 1 and 50 nm, their synthesis, characterization and applications in adsorption, catalysis, bio-related processes, environmental cleanup and nanotechnology. A unique feature of this volume is the wide variety of nanoporous materials covered, ranging from ordered silica nanostructures, silicas with incorporated organic and inorganic species, ordered nanoporous carbons and polymers, metal organic frameworks, nanostructured catalysts to nanoporous films, membranes and monoliths. This proceedings volume reflects the current trends and advances in the field of nanomaterials, which will certainly continue to attract the attention of materials scientists around the globe. It will therefore be a valuable reference for materials scientists, chemists and physicists working in academia, national and industrial laboratories. Sample Chapter(s).

Reaction Kinetics and the Development and Operation of Catalytic Processes is a trendsetter. The Keynote Lectures have been authored by top scientists and cover a broad range of topics like fundamental aspects of surface chemistry, in particular dynamics and spillover, the modeling of reaction mechanisms, with special focus on the importance of transient experimentation and the application of kinetics in reactor design. Fundamental and applied kinetic studies are well represented. More than half of these deal with transient kinetics, a new trend made possible by recent sophisticated experimental equipment and the awareness that transient experimentation provides more information and insight into the microphenomena occurring on the catalyst surface than steady state techniques. The trend is not limited to purely kinetic studies since the great majority of the papers dealing with reactors also focus on transients and even deliberate transient operation. It is to be expected that this trend will continue and amplify as the community becomes more aware of the predictive potential of fundamental kinetics when combined with detailed realistic modeling of the reactor operation.

On January 3, 2009, Bitcoin went live. Since then, Bitcoin has spawned an entirely new and revolutionary asset class. Although it has grown into a world force, the future likely holds much more in store, even things currently unimaginable.Satoshi Nakamoto changed the world. In the process, Satoshi left a plethora of writings. All of those public writings are recorded here chronologically, with almost no editorial commentary.Details:title: Kicking the Hornet's Nestsubtitle: The Complete Writings, Emails, and Forum Posts of Satoshi Nakamoto, the Founder and Creator of Bitcoineditor: crrdlx (@crrdlx or "CR" for short)edition: third editionedition statement: In February of 2024, the "COPA trial" began with the possible identity of Satoshi Nakamoto at the core of the case. That trial called in individuals who had made early electronic contact with Satoshi to offer witness statements. As a result, new, previously private "Satoshi emails" became public. Hence, here is the Third Edition of "Kicking."imprintpublication date of edition 1: 2019publication date of edition 3: 2024
