Greenhouse Gas Removal Technologies Mai Bui Imperial College London, UK | Niall Mac Dowell Imperial College London, UK Greenhouse gas removal (GGR) technologies are those which concentrate on carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere, and can be assigned to general categories including afforestation and reforestation, land management, bioenergy production, enhanced weathering, direct capture, and ocean fertilisation. This book provides the most up-to-date information on GGR technologies, giving insight into their role and value in achieving climate change mitigation targets. With contributions from leaders in the field, it will be an indispensable resource for graduate students and researchers in academia and industry, working across chemical engineering, mechanical engineering and energy policy. Ultrathin Oxide Layers for Solar and Electrocatalytic Systems Heinz Frei Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA | Daniel Esposito Columbia University, USA Ultrathin metal oxide layers have emerged as a powerful approach for substantially enhancing the performance of photo, electro, or thermal catalytic systems for energy, in some cases even enabling the use of highly attractive materials previously found unsuitable. This book brings together the fundamentals and applications of ultrathin oxide layers while highlighting connections and future opportunities. Edited by leaders in the field, and with contributions from global experts, this title will be of interest to graduate students and researchers across materials science and chemistry who are interested in ultrathin oxide layers and their applications.

Providing readers with a fundamental understanding of plastics and polymer processing, this book introduces bioplastics and biocomposites. Concepts covered include bioplastic processing, formulations, biocomposites, properties of biobased materials, economic evaluations of biobased materials, end of life treatment as well as environmental impacts of biobased materials. This book is ideal for researchers new to this field looking for a solid understanding in the materials science, processing and social and economic impacts of bioplastics. Cellulose Processing with Ionic Liquids Alistair King University of Helsinki, Finland | Michael Hummel Aalto University, Finland Cellulose represents a renewable feedstock for a range of everyday chemicals and products, but it is difficult to process due to its insolubility in most common solvents. Taking a highly critical look at the potential of ionic liquids for cellulose processing this book demonstrates the benefits and challenges of ionic liquids towards tangible applications. Weighing up initial conceptual work versus actual feasible process scenarios, it presents the concepts with high potential from both an engineering and fundamental perspective.
