Book Description
Microporous materials, including both zeolites and aluminophosphates are amongst the most fascinating classes of materials, with wide ranging important applications in catalysis, gas separation and ion exchange. The breadth of the field has, moreover, been extended in the last ten years by the discovery of the versatile and exciting ranges of mesoporous materials. Computational methods have a long and successful history of application in solid state and materials science, where they are indeed established tools in modelling structural and dynamic properties of the bulk and surfaces of solids; and where they are playing an increasingly important role in understanding reactivity. Their application to zeolite science developed strongly in the 1980's, with the initial successes in modelling structure and sorption, and with emerging capability in quantum mechanical methods. The field was reviewed over ten years, since then there have been major developments in techniques and of course the power of the available hardware, which have promoted a whole range of new applications to real complex problems in the science of microporous materials. Computer Modelling of Microporous Materials aims to summarise and illustrate the current capabilities of atomistic computer modelling methods in this growing field. - Details advances in the rapidly expanding field of microporous materials - Summarises key current techniques in this type of modelling - Illustrates the current capabilities of atomistic computer modelling methods

Each article contains enough references that the interested reader can accesstherelevant literature. Thanks aregiven to the Center forFundamental Materials Research atMichigan State University forsupportingthis series. M.F. Thorpe, Series Editor E-mail: [email protected] EastLansing,Michigan, September, 1995 PREFACE This book records selected papers given at an interdisciplinary Symposium on Access in Nanoporous Materials held in Lansing, Michigan, on June 7-9, 1995. Broad interest in the synthesis of ordered materials with pore sizes in the 1.0-10 nm range was clearly manifested in the 64 invited and contributed papers presented by workers in the formal fields of chemistry, physics, and engineering. The intent of the symposium was to bring together a small number ofleading researchers within complementary disciplines to share in the diversity of approaches to nanoporous materials synthesis and characterization.

Role of Interfaces in Environmental Protection
Author: Sandor Barany
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401001839
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 581
Book Description
The NATO Advanced Research Workshop "Role of Interfaces in Environmental Protection" has been held on May 27-30, 2002 in Miskolc, Hungary, under leadership of co-directors Prof Sandor Barany from the University ofMiskolc, Hungary, and Prof Nataliya Klymenko, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The objective of the ARW was to highlight colloidal and biocolloidal aspects of environmental pollution and technologies to monitor, remediate, abate and prevent pollution. It is known that the solution of majority of environmental problems is closely connected with phenomena at the interfaces. The behaviour, transport of dispersed particles in the environment, the main phase separation methods in water treatment, purification of liquids, aerosols removal, many soil remediation processes as well as the methods of protection of human organisms from hazardous matters, are based on concepts of colloid chemistry, i.e. properties of interfaces and their behaviour in different media. Examples of these methods are: filtration, ultrafiltration, flotation, coagulation, hetero-coagulation and flocculation, adsorption, adhesion of micro-organisms to surfaces, membrane separation methods, etc. A very important and special aspect of the topic is the human protection using colloid-chemical approaches, i.e. the adsorption, aggregation and adagulation properties of differe~t materials. Examples are: adsorption of hazardous organic materials, drugs, heavy· metals and radionuclides on activated carbon, silica, cellulose derivatives, etc.
