Ionic Liquids, Nanofluids and Nanotechnology

Innovations, Applications and Sustainability

Herausgeber: Kulkarni, Shrikaant; Das, Susanta

Beschreibung

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the dynamic intersections between ionic liquids (ILs) and nanotechnology. Highlighting innovative strategies for industrial, environmental, and biomedical applications, this book presents insights into the latest research, sustainable solutions, and future prospects, making it a valuable resource for scientists, engineers, and policymakers. Known as "designer solvents," ionic liquids exhibit exceptional properties like low vapor pressure and high thermal stability, enabling green chemistry applications in chemical synthesis, material design, and nanotechnology. This book examines ILs in green nanoparticle synthesis, where they offer eco-friendly advantages and precise control over size, shape, and surface chemistry. ILs also play a critical role in nanofluids, improving thermal conductivity, stability, and energy efficiency. Covering topics such as catalysis, environmental remediation, energy storage, and pharmaceutical applications, this book also addresses challenges like scalability, toxicity, and green chemistry integration, offering a forward-looking perspective on IL-based nanotechnology.

He received his Ph.D. and M.A. degrees from Western Michigan University (WMU), USA, and M.Sc. degree from Banaras Hindu University (BHU), India all in Physics. He continued his research as a Marie-Curie post-doctoral fellow at Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden on beam diagnostics for the DESIREE (Double ElectroStatic Ion Ring ExpEriment) in the project DITANET (Diagnostic Techniques for particle Accelerators – a Marie-Curie initial training NETwork), at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research-Kolkata, India on high-pressure physics as a Project Scientist-B, and at the University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo, Japan on ion-surface interactions as a Post-doctoral fellow. Throughout his career, Dr. Das worked and collaborated with many researchers, Ph.D., master, and visiting students from different countries. He further visited many countries to discuss research and an international conference participant (UK, Italy, Germany, Greece, Belgium, Bulgaria, Romania, Brazil etc.). He co-authored several research articles in WoS/Scopus indexed international journals, conference proceedings, and scholarly book chapters published by renowned international publishing houses. Beyond his research endeavors, Dr. Das has a storied history of service to academic and administrative committees, exhibiting his commitment to the growth and development of educational institutions. His experience includes tenure at Central University South Bihar, Sri Sri University, and P.K. University before assuming his current role at Ajeenkya DY Patil University. He received the Marie-Curie post-doctoral fellowship in Sweden, Science Academies’ Summer Research Fellowship in India, Gwen Frostic Doctoral Fellowship, Department Graduate Research and Creative Scholar Award by WMU, and Leo R. Parpart Doctoral Fellowship by Dept. of Physics, WMU, among many others, throughout his academic journey. At present, Dr. Das continues to delve into cutting-edge fields, with a keen interest in nanotechnology, quantum computing, and data science. His multifaceted contributions, spanning teaching, research, and administrative leadership, showcase a dedicated professional who is instrumental in advancing the vision and mission of the institutions he serves.   Shrikaant Kulkarni, Ph.D., works as a Research Professor at Sanjivani University, Kopargaon, India, and as an Adjunct Professor at the Faculty of Business, Victorian Institute of Technology, Melbourne, Australia, Adjunct Professor, Lincoln University College, Malaysia, and Adjunct Professor at Chitkara University, Punjab, India. Dr. Kulkarni has been a senior academician and researcher for 42 years. He has delivered invited lectures and conducted sessions at national and international conferences and faculty development programs. He has guided many major and minor projects in areas like engineering chemistry, green chemistry, nanotechnology, analytical chemistry, catalysis, chemical engineering materials, industrial organization, and management, Advanced AI, and Educational Technology. He has published over 100+ research papers in national and international journals and conferences of repute. He has edited 50+ books, including four in Advanced AI, and authored 100+ book chapters in books published by CRC, Springer Nature, Apple Academic Press, Elsevier, Wiley, and IET. He authored four textbooks in engineering chemistry. Dr Kulkarni holds MSc, MPhil, and PhD degrees in Chemistry, as well as Master’s degrees in Economics, Business Management, and Political Science. Two of his Patents have been published, and two more are pending grant. He was invited by UNESCO for an invited talk on “ Green Chemistry Education for Sustainable Development “ at the International Conference on Green Chemistry, Bangkok, and was well received by international Jury members and dignitaries from across the world.
