Produktbeschreibung

Materials for green energy and sustainable environment is a major area of research that encompasses cutting-edge technology for applications including energy storage, conversion and harvesting, and environmental remediation. The 'materials nexus' represents the role or connection of materials in building the path for greener energy and sustainable environment.

This two-volume set covers the state-of-the-art of materials technology for greener energy and sustainable environment, including current issues, anticipated demands and future opportunities. Each chapter demonstrates how advanced materials can be selected and prepared for device applications, providing a vital link between the science and the engineering applications. A special focus is made in each chapter to discuss the basic principles and mechanism behind the materials selection for each application. Technologies covered include functional electrode materials in energy harvesting including solar cells, solar water oxidation, fuel cells, supercapacitors, batteries and sensors, and environmental remedial applications. This second volume covers topics including aerogels and carbon-based materials for photoelectrocatalytic O2 reduction into solar fuels, and recent advances in the use of nanomaterials in electrochemical sensors for the detection of pesticides and organic pollutants.

This reference text is highly useful for students, researchers and companies who are searching for suitable materials for energy and environmental applications.
