Green Approach on Alternative Fuel for Sustainable Future addresses the advancement of biological and biochemical technologies in context to alternative fuel synthesis. This book emphasizes and discusses the technology involved and development on the status of alternative fuel production and related aspects, including biofuel production. The potential uses of waste material to turn them into wealth, as alternative energy sources also been discussed. The extended and detailed content of the book also covers the promising uses of microalgae treatment to produce biofuel. By not being limited to the biological aspect the book also discusses and explores the perspective of green chemistry for energy production. By adding policy and commercialization, the book provides comprehensive information, from lab to field, with extensive illustrations, case studies, summary tables and up-to-date references. - Gives an overall overview on general and applied aspects on biofuels - Provides scientific methodology for viable sustainable transition strategies for policy makers - Outlines green technologies to face the environmental crisis and allow for the transformation into a sustainable future - Provides data-based information in context to advance and innovative technology - Explore possibilities and limitation of expansion and commercialization of biofuels - Offers accumulation of innovative approach to promoting sustainable development - Includes cutting-edge research concepts for biofuels production

The Chemistry and Physics of Coatings provides an introduction to the science underpinning the paint (organic coatings) industry to graduate level chemists who may have no previous knowledge of polymer-based technologies. This book stresses important physical phenomena such as rheology, film formation, and mechanical properties, their exploitation in paint, and the economic and legislative background against which coatings technology is tested. Attention is given to the chemistry of the polymers, pigments, and solvents that compose typical coatings, and the complex 'science and art' of formulating them effectively. The book also aims to give insights into the commercial application of the chemistries described, and includes a glossary of industry and polymer-related terms. Revised and updated, this second edition has been expanded to include separate chapters on binders for high solids and solvent-free coatings, inorganic and hybrid coatings and coatings formulation. There is also a new section on coatings additives. The Chemistry and Physics of Coatings will be of particular interest to graduates of materials and polymer sciences and related areas. It will also appeal to undergraduates, lecturers and those in the paint industry. Extracts from reviews of 1st Edition "... readable and surprisingly comprehensive ... In short this is an excellent book, which I recommend without hesitation." Journal of Materials Chemistry "..an informative and thoroughly recommended volume." Polymer International

Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (CCS) is the one advanced technology that conventional power generation cannot do without. CCS technology reduces the carbon footprint of power plants by capturing, and storing the CO2 emissions from burning fossil-fuels and biomass. This volume provides a comprehensive reference on the state of the art research, development and demonstration of carbon storage and utilisation, covering all the storage options and their environmental impacts. It critically reviews geological, terrestrial and ocean sequestration, including enhanced oil and gas recovery, as well as other advanced concepts such as industrial utilisation, mineral carbonation, biofixation and photocatalytic reduction. - Foreword written by Lord Oxburgh, Climate Science Peer - Comprehensively examines the different methods of storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) and the various concepts for utilisation - Reviews geological sequestration of CO2, including coverage of reservoir sealing and monitoring and modelling techniques used to verify geological sequestration of CO2

Many people still struggle with believing and trusting in God completely without a trace of doubt. They are oblivious to how to use the tools given to them as believers. In Because He Said So, author Talin Aintablian explains in practical ways how to have faith and confidence in God to the fullest, while challenging the reader to put faith to work step-by-step in order to see the desired results. With humor and sarcasm, she shares her innermost feelings on issues that anyone faces every day within families, churches, and relationships. Stories of her personal encounters with the spirit world will have you at the edge of your seat as she elaborates in specific detail the problems she faced for most of her young life. Talin learned the long hard way of how to be a strong individual in a crazy world, and believe in God's Word for what it is just Because He Said So.

?? Giant molecules are important in our everyday life. But, as pointed out by the authors, they are also associated with a culture. What Bach did with the harpsichord, Kuhn and Flory did with polymers. We owe a lot of thanks to those who now make this music accessible ??Pierre-Gilles de GennesNobel Prize laureate in Physics(Foreword for the 1st Edition, March 1996)This book describes the basic facts, concepts and ideas of polymer physics in simple, yet scientifically accurate, terms. In both scientific and historic contexts, the book shows how the subject of polymers is fascinating, as it is behind most of the wonders of living cell machinery as well as most of the newly developed materials. No mathematics is used in the book beyond modest high school algebra and a bit of freshman calculus, yet very sophisticated concepts are introduced and explained, ranging from scaling and reptations to protein folding and evolution. The new edition includes an extended section on polymer preparation methods, discusses knots formed by molecular filaments, and presents new and updated materials on such contemporary topics as single molecule experiments with DNA or polymer properties of proteins and their roles in biological evolution.
