Renewable Carbon (eBook, ePUB)

Science, Technology and Sustainability

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Renewable Carbon: Science, Technology and Sustainability identifies production pathways and technologies for the production of chemicals and presents relevant information to bridge the gap between reaction engineering and process design. The book uses a multidisciplinary approach, focusing on important aspects of basic science, technological advantages (and hurdles), and key sustainability aspects. It incorporates organic, inorganic and biochemical synthesis and analyzes the myriad of technologies available, including nanotechnology, biotechnology and thermochemistry. Sections cover the synthesis of carbon derivatives through multiple pathways (Science), technologies available for its generation (Technology), and assess sustainability and new supply chains (Sustainability).

This book will serve as a valuable reference for academics, research scientists and industry practitioners in green chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science and environmental engineering.

• Includes a review of sustainable feedstocks containing renewable carbon such as biomass, CO2 and recycling materials
• Provides a compendium of technologies to explore renewable carbon sources
• Compiles the most up-to-date information on renewable products and materials utilized in industry

Autorenporträt

Dr. Sílvio Vaz Jr. hold a B.Sc. degree in Chemistry (with technological assignments) from the Federal University of Uberlândia, a M.Sc. degree in Physical-Chemistry from the University of São Paulo, and a D.Sc. degree in Analytical Chemistry from the University of São Paulo, Brazil, with equivalence of doctorate degrees from the University of Coimbra, Portugal, and from the University of Granada, Spain. Having previously served as director and partner at two private environmental analysis laboratories, he is currently a research scientist at the National Research Center for Agroenergy of the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa), where his work focuses on the development of renewable molecules (e.g., eco-friendly lignin products), environmental chemistry (e.g., CO2 capture and use), agricultural chemistry (e.g., controlled release nanoformulations), and the application of analytical chemistry to biomass and bioenergy, according green and sustainable chemistry visions. He was appointed as the chairman of the Brazilian Division of the American Chemical Society (2018-2019). Moreover, he serves as professor of the graduate program in environmental engineering at the Federal University of Ouro Preto, Brazil, and graduate program in biofuels at the Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil.
