Book Description
Ecomaterials, or Green Materials, are those designed so as to minimize their environmental impact, while still maintaining or even increasing the desired operational performance. Ecomaterials research is an interdisciplinary field where scientists and engineers with backgrounds in both chemistry, and in materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers, and carbon, are involved in raising the environmental consciousness of industry and in motivating ecological research. This volume contains the papers presented during the fourth international symposium on ecomaterials processing and design, which was held on February 4-6, 2003 in Kangnung, Korea.

Sustainable Materials and Green Processing for Energy Conversion
Author: Kuan Yew Cheong
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0128230703
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 506
Book Description
Sustainable Materials and Green Processing for Energy Conversion provides a concise reference on green processing and synthesis of materials required for the next generation of devices used in renewable energy conversion and storage. The book covers the processing of bio-organic materials, environmentally-friendly organic and inorganic sources of materials, synthetic green chemistry, bioresorbable and transient properties of functional materials, and the concept of sustainable material design. The book features chapters by worldwide experts and is an important reference for students, researchers, and engineers interested in gaining extensive knowledge concerning green processing of sustainable, green functional materials for next generation energy devices. Additionally, functional materials used in energy devices must also be able to degrade and decompose with minimum energy after being disposed of at their end-of-life. Environmental pollution is one of the global crises that endangers the life cycles of living things. There are multiple root causes of this pollution, including industrialization that demands a huge supply of raw materials for the production of products related to meeting the demands of the Internet-of-Things. As a result, improvement of material and product life cycles by incorporation of green, sustainable principles is essential to address this challenging issue. - Offers a resourceful reference for readers interested in green processing of environmentally-friendly and sustainable materials for energy conversion and storage devices - Focuses on designing of materials through green-processing concepts - Highlights challenges and opportunities in green processing of renewable materials for energy devices

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Environmental engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 712
Book Description
The book will present materials researchers and users with a wealth of new information covering the entire spectrum of ecology, eco-materials, nano-materials, bio-materials, recycling, environmental protection and energy conversion related materials. It is divided into seven sections: the first deals with photocatalysts for air pollution, water pollution, deodorizing, self-cleaning, power light sources, and the standardization of methodologies in photocatalytic reactivity. The second section covers the incorporation of end-of-life strategies into materials design as well as biomaterials. The third section covers the use of non-hazardous components as substitutes for traditional, but hazardous, components. The fourth section covers the treatment of waste materials, and the fifth section describes manufacturing via the using of more environmentally-friendly processing (eco-processing) and eco-materials design. The final section covers energy-related or energy-conversion related materials such as hydrogen-energy/fuel-cells and batteries. A book not to be missed.

Materials and Sustainable Development
Author: Michael F. Ashby
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
ISBN: 012802562X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
This book, from noted materials selection authority Mike Ashby, provides a structure and framework for analyzing sustainable development and the role of materials in it. The aim is to introduce ways of exploring sustainable development to readers in a way that avoids simplistic interpretations and approaches complexity in a systematic way. There is no completely "right" answer to questions of sustainable development – instead, there is a thoughtful, well-researched response that recognizes concerns of stakeholders, the conflicting priorities and the economic, legal and social aspects of a technology as well as its environmental legacy. The intent is not to offer solutions to sustainability challenges but rather to improve the quality of discussion and enable informed, balanced debate. - Winner of a 2016 Most Promising New Textbook Award from the Textbook and Academic Authors Association - Describes sustainable development in increasingly detailed progression, from a broad overview to specific tools and methods - Six chapter length case studies on such topics as biopolymers, electric cars, bamboo, and lighting vividly illustrate the sustainable development process from a materials perspective - Business and economic aspects are covered in chapters on corporate sustainability and the "circular materials economy" - Support for course use includes online solutions manual and image bank
