Clay Mineral Catalysis of Organic Reactions
The book provides insight into the working of clays and clay minerals in speeding up a variety of organic reactions. Clay minerals are known to have a large propensity for taking up organic molecules and can catalyse numerous organic reactions due to fine particle size, extensive surface area, layer structure, and peculiar charge characteristics. They can be used as heterogeneous catalysts and catalyst carriers of organic reactions because they are non-corrosive, easy to separate from the reaction mixture, and reusable. Clays and clay minerals have an advantage over other solid acids as they are abundant, inexpensive, and non-polluting.
Handbook of Clay Science
The first general texts on clay mineralogy and the practical applications of clay, written by R.E. Grim, were published some 40-50 years ago. Since then, a vast literature has accumulated but this information is scattered and not always accessible. The Handbook of Clay Science aims at assembling the scattered literature on the varied and diverse aspects that make up the discipline of clay science. The topics covered range from the fundamental structures (including textures) and properties of clays and clay minerals, through their environmental, health and industrial applications, to their analysis and characterization by modern instrumental techniques. Also included are the clay-microbe inte...
The Chemistry of Clay-Organic Reactions
The second edition of The Chemistry of Clay-Organic Reactions book provides a comprehensive and fully updated summary of the literature on the interactions of clay minerals with organic molecules, including reaction mechanisms and bonding modes together with their practical and industrial applications. The reader will gain an insight into the formation and properties of complexes between clay minerals and a variety of organic compounds and the use of such complexes as sorbents and carriers of organic pollutants, pesticides, dyes, and pharmaceuticals. KEY FEATURES An authoritative resource providing a detailed synthesis of published data on clay-organic complexes and reactions. Authored by a globally recognized expert in the field. Describes developments in the interactions of organic compounds with fibrous and short-range order clay minerals. This book is written for environmental and industrial chemists, organic geochemists, and soil scientists, and it will appeal to academics, researchers, industry professionals, and graduate students.
Formation and Properties of Clay-Polymer Complexes
Formation and Properties of Clay-Polymer Complexes provides a comprehensive account of the reactions between clay minerals and organic polymers. The book opens with a discussion of the structures of common clay minerals, clays colloid chemistry, and the behaviour of organic polymers at clay surfaces. This is followed by a systematic treatment of complex formation between clay minerals and various classes of synthetic and naturally occurring polymers, a description of the properties of the resulting complexes and, wherever appropriate, their practical applications. The book will have a new separate chapter on clay-polymer nanocomposites. Each chapter is written as a self-contained review paper, giving a list of reference to the original literature. Describes the important development in clay-polymer nanocomposites Contains new figures and diagrams Extenisve revision of the previous edition

Humic Substances in Terrestrial Ecosystems
This book highlights the increasing importance of humic substances in the different scientific fields related to terrestrial ecology, soil quality conservation, and environmental chemistry. It shows that modern humic substances research is not only directed to unravel their yet ill-defined chemical structure but is successfully exploring the interconnected chemical, biological, and physical processes that maintain the ecological equilibrium of soil and ensure a sustainable agricultural production. The book will primarily be of interest to soil scientists and to ecological and environmental scientists. People in the fields of forest science, agronomy, analytical and environmental chemistry, water science, environmental engineering, and coal science will also find this publication worthy of their attention.
Handbook of Soil Sciences (Two Volume Set)
An evolving, living organic/inorganic covering, soil is in dynamic equilibrium with the atmosphere above, the biosphere within, and the geology below. It acts as an anchor for roots, a purveyor of water and nutrients, a residence for a vast community of microorganisms and animals, a sanitizer of the environment, and a source of raw materials for co
