Achieving carbon neutrality is crucial for creating a sustainable and resilient future worldwide. The circular economy framework focuses on reducing waste, optimizing resource use, and promoting regenerative practices, thus curbing carbon footprints. Concurrently, sustainable energy techniques, such as harnessing renewable sources, enhancing energy storage, and boosting energy efficiency, contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. With a unique emphasis on net-zero emission approaches, this book delves into circular economy principles and sustainable energy materials, offering a comprehensive perspective on climate change challenges. Covers fundamental circular economy principl...
Unsteady-state operations of catalytic reactors provide plentiful opportunities for research and commercial realization of efficient heterogeneous catalytic processes. Forced unsteady state conditions generate unique distributions of process parameters and catalyst states often unattainable with traditional, steady-state operation. The unsteady-states can be created by periodic changes in input flow parameters, such as changes in inlet temperature and composition, catalyst circulation through reaction and regeneration zones, or periodic flow reversals through fixed catalyst bed. This can result in increased productivity, selectivity, capital savings and operating cost reduction (higher energ...
Recent Progress in Mesostructured Materials is a selection of oral and poster communications presented during the 5th International Mesostructured Materials Symposium (5th IMMS2006). Authorized by International Mesostructured Material Association (IMMA) and hosted by the Fudan University, China. The scope of this involved field covers both traditional inorganic mesostructured molecular sieves and mesostructured materials like organic polymers, metals, organic-inorganic nanocomposites, and ordered mesoporous carbons, the hot topics in chemistry, crystallization, structure, liquid crystalline, catalysis and materials science. This symposium provided a forum for the presentation of the most nov...
