There are a large number of books available on fuel cells; however, the majority are on specific types of fuel cells such as solid oxide fuel cells, proton exchange membrane fuel cells, or on specific technical aspects of fuel cells, e.g., the system or stack engineering. Thus, there is a need for a book focused on materials requirements in fuel cells. Key Materials in Low-Temperature Fuel Cells is a concise source of the most important and key materials and catalysts in low-temperature fuel cells. A related book will cover key materials in high-temperature fuel cells. The two books form part of the "Materials for Sustainable Energy & Development" series. Key Materials in Low-Temperature Fue...
This book examines five methods used for concentrate management, namely; disposal to surface water, disposal to sewerage, deep well injection, land applications and evaporation ponds. In particular, the book focuses on the design, siting, cost, and environmental impacts of these methods. While these methods are widely practiced in a variety of settings already, there are many limitations that restrict the use of certain disposal options in particular locations.
This book provides a critical, carefully researched, up-to-date summary of membranes for membrane bioreactors. It presents a comprehensive and self-contained outline of the fundamentals of membrane bioreactors, especially their relevance as an advanced water treatment technology. This outline helps to bring the technology to the readers’ attention, and positions the critical topic of membrane fouling as one of the key impediments to its more widescale adoption. The target readership includes researchers and industrial practitioners with an interest in membrane bioreactors.
This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Design and Engineering of Microreactor and Smart-Scaled Flow Processes" that was published in Processes
This work investigated a novel photochemical cyclization to form indole derivatives from o-alkynylated F-tagged aniline derivatives, and wide applicability to synthesize differently functionalized indole systems bearing various substituents in the positions N-1, C-2, C-3, C-5 and C-6 was shown. Additionally, this reaction was systematically studied in a kinetic study in an in-house assembled capillary photo-microreactor. Further derivatization of the final F-tagged 3-acylindoles by the cleavage of the perfluorinated chain yielded a library of novel indole-3-carboxylic acid and indole-3-carboxylic acid ester derivatives. A straightforward and efficient four-step methodology for the synthesis of desired indole derivatives with high yields for single steps and the whole sequence was developed. Variing the conditions of single steps showed that all three steps of the reaction route to the cyclization precursors can be performed using the same solvent and base, providing the possibility to conduct this sequence as a continuous-flow without the need for in-line solvent switch or base exchange and without compromises with respect to the selectivity and yields of single steps.

Membranes have emerged over the last 30 years as a viable water treatment technology. Earth's population is growing and the need for alternative ways to generate potable water is rising. The recent advent of nanotechnology opens the door to improving processes in membrane technology, which is a promising step on the way to solving the earth's potable water problem. Current performance is enhanced and new concepts are possible by engineering on the nanoscale. This book presents key areas of nanotechnology such as fouling tolerant and robust membranes, enhanced destruction of pollutants and faster monitoring of water quality. 'Functional Nanostructured Materials and Membranes for Water Treatment' is part of the series on Materials for Sustainable Energy and Development edited by Prof. G.Q. Max Lu. The series covers advances in materials science and innovation for renewable energy, clean use of fossil energy, and greenhouse gas mitigation and associated environmental technologies.
