Klappentext

Conversion and Utilization of Wastes into Sustainable Products, Volume 1: Natural and Industrial Wastes for Functional Materials Applications

Master the foundational strategies for transforming diverse waste streams into high-performance, carbon-based functional materials with this essential first volume, bridging the gap between innovative green fabrication and real-world industrial application.

Growing pollution of the natural environment and depletion of conventional resources have become key motives for searching for eco-friendly, renewable, and sustainable alternative energy sources. Particular attention is paid to natural and industrial waste, which can be converted into fuels and energy that meet the growing needs of humanity. Natural and biowaste materials can be used as a template to create innovative nanocomposites and green nanocatalysts from biodegradable, earth-abundant, affordable, and renewable sources to prevent the accumulation and aggregation of nanomaterials. These two volumes highlight the latest research into the role of waste to create a cleaner, more sustainable future.

This volume compiles and analyzes the most recent studies on waste conversion for value-added product production, exploring the relationships among the fabrication methods, their resulting structures and properties, and their performance in various applications. It also discusses current-state-of-the-art uses of carbon-based functional materials, which have proven their effectiveness and efficiency in many applications. This volume explores recent material-development strategies for converting diverse waste streams into carbon-based functional materials, highlighting greener, more sustainable, and environmentally benign alternatives with significant potential for both industry and academia.
