Materials for Energy Conversion and Storage
Development of new energy‐related materials is essential in addressing future energy demands. Materials for Energy Conversion and Storage focuses on the materials science related to energy conversion and energy storage technologies. It covers the principles of prospective energy technologies and their relationship to the performance of energy devices. • Covers fundamental principles of energy conversion and storage • Discusses materials selection, design, and performance tradeoffs • Details electrochemical cell construction and testing methodologies • Explores sustainable development of energy devices • Features case studies Aimed at readers in materials, electrical, and energy engineering, this book provides readers with a deep understanding of the role of materials in developing sustainable energy devices.
The Quest for Gold
This book is the first comprehensive record of sports in Hong Kong. It traces the practice of sport in Hong Kong dating back a century-and-a-half, when it was a pastime for foreign residents, and limited to a few clubs with access to grounds andpools.

Handbook of Graphene, Volume 4
The fourth volume in a series of handbooks on graphene research and applications The Handbook of Graphene, Volume 4: Composites looks at composite materials exclusively. Topics covered include graphene composites and graphene-reinforced advanced composite materials. The following graphene-based subjects are discussed: ceramic composites; composite nanostructures; composites with shape memory effect; and scroll structures. Chapters also address: the fabrication and properties of copper graphene composites; graphene metal oxide composite as an anode material in li-ion batteries; supramolecular graphene-based systems for drug delivery; and other graphene-related areas of interest to scientists and researchers.
Alternative Energy Resources
This book reviews alternative and renewable energy resources in order to pave the way for a more sustainable production in the future. A multi-disciplinary team of authors provides a comprehensive overview of current technologies and future trends, including solar technologies, wind energy, hydropower, microbial electrochemical systems and various biomass sources for biofuel production. In addition, the book focuses on solutions for developing countries. Conventional energy sources are finite, and estimates suggest that they will be exhausted within a few decades. Finding a solution to this problem is a global challenge, and developing countries in particular are still highly dependent on fossil fuels due to their rapidly growing populations accompanied by a huge growth in primary energy consumption. Moreover, the most common conventional energy sources (coal and petroleum) are non-sustainable since their combustion exponentially increases greenhouse gas emissions. As such, there is a pressing need for clean energy based on alternative or renewable resources, not only to ensure energy supplies at an affordable price but also to protect the environment.
Sustainable Materials for Next Generation Energy Devices
Sustainable Materials for Next Generation Energy Devices: Challenges and Opportunities presents the latest state-of-the-art knowledge and innovation related to environmentally-friendly functional materials that can be developed for, and employed in, producing a feasible next generation of energy storage and conversion devices.
