Surface Chemistry and Macroscopic Assembly of Graphene for Application in Energy Storage

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2015-11-20

  • Publisher: Springer

This PhD thesis presents the latest findings on the tunable surface chemistry of graphene/graphene oxide by systematically investigating the tuning of oxygen and nitrogen containing functional groups using an innovative carbonization and ammonia treatment. In addition, novel macroscopic assemblies or hybrids of graphene were produced, laying the theoretical foundation for developing graphene-based energy storage devices. This work will be of interest to university researchers, R&D engineers and graduate students working with carbon materials, energy storage and nanotechnology.

Environmentally Friendly (Bio)Technologies for the Removal of Emerging Organic and Inorganic Pollutants from Water

This book highlights the impacts of emerging pollutants (both organic and inorganic) in water bodies and the role and performances of different water and wastewater treatment approaches that are presently being employed in the field of environmental engineering. Some of these approaches are focused on ‘end-of-pipe’ treatment, while most of these approaches are focused on the application of novel physic-chemical and biological techniques for wastewater treatment and reuse. The goal of this book is to present the emerging technologies and trends in the field of water and wastewater treatment. The papers in this book provide clear proof that environmentally friendly (bio)technologies are becoming more and more important and playing a critical role in removing a wide variety of organic and inorganic pollutants from water. In Focus – a book series that showcases the latest accomplishments in water research. Each book focuses on a specialist area with papers from top experts in the field. It aims to be a vehicle for in-depth understanding and inspire further conversations in the sector.

  • Publisher: BRILL

The main theme of this book is the interaction between two “places,” China and Guanzhong, the capital area of several dynasties. It addresses such questions as What do we mean by “local”? Did the inhabitants of a locality believe that being “local” required them to assume a certain identity? If so, how did they talk and write about it? Were there spatial and temporal differences in the representation of locales? This work examines how Guanzhong literati conceptualized three sets of relations: central/regional, “official”/“unofficial,” and national/local. It further traces the formation over the last millennium of the imperial state of a critical communal self-consciousness, the role of this consciousness in constructing a local identity and promoting an “unofficial” space for nonofficial elite activism, and the effect of the presence (or absence) of this consciousness on literati views of central-regional relationships. The issue here is not whether there can be a shared national culture, but whether this culture can be perceived as having regional variations and therefore contributing to the formation of a local identity.

10 Years of Ethnopharmacology

The contributions selected for this ebook span the entire ten-year period and we have selected examples which have had a particular impact on the debates in the field. Broadly speaking, they fall into four main areas: - Overarching reviews within ethnopharmacology - Reviews of specific species or other taxa regarding their pharmacology; phytochemistry and local / traditional use - Assessments of the pharmacological evidence for specific active compounds or classes of compounds - Assessments of the safety and potential risks of herbal substances. With these themes, this eBook contributes to the debate about the evidence- base of such practices incorporating both the scientific evidence available and the local / traditional concepts associated with their use.
