Liposomes for Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals
Liposomes have been used primarily for drug delivery, and there has been only been limited development of this technology in the food industry. This volume helps to fill that gap by focusing on the advanced trends and applications of liposomes in the nutraceuticals and functional foods industry. The volume begins by discussing the processes and protocols of formation of liposomes and the structures of liposomes produced by different methods. It then reviews their physico-chemical properties and the science of encapsulation of bioactive compounds using liposomes. It continues with an overview of liposomal methods, protocols, preparation techniques and explores the uses of liposomes as drug carriers but focuses primarily on liposomal carrier systems and technology in bioactive functional foods and nutraceuticals. The volume presents advances on liposomes as anti-tubercular and anticancer delivery systems and also discusses liposomal supplements. Liposomes for Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals: From Research to Application will be a valuable resource for those who produce lipids and those who seek to incorporate them into appropriate food products.
Engineered Biomaterials
This book highlights recent advances focusing on the synthesis methods of engineered biomaterials and their applications. The book discusses recent applications of various approaches and technology in improving the functional properties and biological activities of biopolymers. It includes two major sections: the first section introduces a range of methods which lead to materials with enhanced properties for a range of practical applications, along with the positives and limitations of the techniques. The second section covers recent trends and advances in application of engineered biomaterials that assist materials scientists and researchers in mapping out the future of these new improved materials through value addition in order to enhance their use. Contributions in the book are done by prominent researchers from industry, academia, and government/private research laboratories across the globe. The book summarizes in a fairly comprehensive manner many of the recent technical advancements in the area of biopolymers. The book is intended to serve as a reference resource in the area of polymers science.
Recycling of Polymers
Recycling of Polymers This timely reference on the topic is the only book you need for a complete overview of recyclable polymers. Following an introduction to various polymer structures and their resulting properties, the main part of the book deals with different methods of recycling. It discusses in detail the recycling of such common polymers as polyethylene, polypropylene and PET, as well as rubbers, fibers, engineering polymers, polymer blends and composites. The whole is rounded off with a look at future technologies and the toxicological impact of recycled polymers. An indispensable reference source for those working in the field, whether in academia or industry, and whether newcomers or advanced readers.
Ethanol and Glycerol Chemistry - Production, Modelling, Applications, and Technological Aspects
Due to their unique physicochemical properties, low cost, and wide availability, ethanol and glycerol have gained attention for their use as alternative feedstocks in the sustainable production of several commodity and specialty products. As a result, during the last decades, there has been intense research aimed at developing the potential applications of these biomass-derived compounds. Ethanol and Glycerol Chemistry - Production, Modelling, Applications, and Technological Aspects discusses recent advances and different aspects of the production, direct applications, and processing of ethanol and glycerol from a multidisciplinary perspective that includes the medical field, fuels, and chemical synthesis.
Biopolymers in Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods
As a result of their unique physical properties, biological membrane mimetics such as biopolymers are used in a broad range of scientific and technological applications. This comprehensive book covers new applications of biopolymers in the research and development of industrial scale nutraceutical and functional food grade products. All the major food biopolymers are included, from plant, animal and marine sources. Coverage also includes biopolymer-based drug delivery mechanisms intended for biological applications such as bio-detection of pathogens, fluorescent biological labels, and drug and gene delivery. This is the first interdisciplinary book to address this area specifically and is essential reading for those who produce the functional biopolymer materials as well as those who seek to incorporate them into appropriate nutraceutical, food and drug delivery products.

Advanced Materials and Methods for WATER TREATMENT
Demand for safe and clean water is ever increasing and on the other hand, efforts to recover wasted resources particularly water are also gaining significant importance. Researchers, scientists, innovators, and policymakers throughout the world are investing their time and efforts to build effective and sustainable infrastructure to manage and recover resources from discarded wastes of various states and nature. This book would serve as a guide to researchers, technologists, policymakers as well as students on the various materials stock and methods developed in recent years to address complex pollutants that are difficult to treat or remove with conventional as well as existing water treatment methods.
Functional Materials from Lipids and Proteins
In recent years, the use of renewable raw materials and natural biopolymers has increased significantly to overcome the issues associated with environmental pollution and dwindling fossil fuel resources. Lipids and proteins are inexpensive, renewable raw materials, which are considered ideal feedstock for the development of a variety of functional materials. This book provides an international viewpoint on recent developments in the utilisation of lipids and proteins together, for the development of functional materials in food engineering, environmental and industry applications. This book presents the cutting-edge research in the utilization of lipids and proteins in food, cosmetics, therapeutics, food packaging, water remediation, biofuels, lubricants, biomaterials, and composite preparations. Researchers, scientists, engineers and students working on lipids and proteins derived materials will benefit from this book, which is highly application oriented. Focusing on the latest developments in the field, this will be the first book to describe lipids and proteins together, allowing it to act as a single reference for researchers working in this area.
Green Polymer Composites Technology
This book is a comprehensive introduction to "green" or environmentally friendly polymer composites developed using renewable polymers of natural origin such as starch, lignin, cellulose acetate, poly-lactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxylalkanoates (PHA), polyhydroxylbutyrate (PHB), etc., and the development of modern technologies for preparing green composites with various applications.
