| Description: | This up-to-date collection, “Eco-Materials Processing and Design VIII”, covers – on a global scale – the outstanding advances made in researching, producing and using eco-materials. It furnishes materials scientists and end-users with a valuable source of information and new concepts covering the complete spectrum of ecology, eco-materials, nano-materials, bio-materials, recycling, environmental protection and energy conversion related materials. The volume is divided into five sections: the first deals with photocatalysts for controlling air pollution and water pollution, as well as the topics of deodorization, self-cleaning, power light sources, and standardization of the methodology of photocatalytic reactivity. The second section covers the incorporation of an end-of-life strategy into materials design. The third section treats the use of non-hazardous components as substitutes for traditionally hazardous components, as well the treatment of waste materials. The fourth presents a philosophy of manufacturing using more environmentally-friendly processing (eco-processing) and eco-materials design, as well as biomaterials. The final section covers energy-related and energy conversion related materials. This certainly makes the book essential reading for all of those who care about preserving the world for future generations. |
