Extraction processes are essential steps in numerous industrial applications from perfume over pharmaceutical to fine chemical industry. Nowadays, there are three key aspects in industrial extraction processes: economy and quality, as well as environmental considerations. This book presents a complete picture of current knowledge on green extraction in terms of innovative processes, original methods, alternative solvents and safe products, and provides the necessary theoretical background as well as industrial application examples and environmental impacts. Each chapter is written by experts in the field and the strong focus on green chemistry throughout the book makes this book a unique reference source. This book is intended to be a first step towards a future cooperation in a new extraction of natural products, built to improve both fundamental and green parameters of the techniques and to increase the amount of extracts obtained from renewable resources with a minimum consumption of energy and solvents, and the maximum safety for operators and the environment.
Volatile organic solvents are the normal media used in both research scale and industrial scale synthesis of organic chemicals. Their environmental impact is significant, however, and so the development of alternative reaction media has become of great interest. Developments in the use of water as a solvent for organic synthesis have reached the point where it could now be considered a viable solvent for many organic reactions. Organic Reactions in Water demonstrates the underlying principles of using water as a reaction solvent and, by reference to a range of reaction types and systems, it’s effective use in synthetic organic chemistry. Written by an internationally respected team of contributors, and with a strong focus on the practical use of water as a reaction medium, this book illustrates the enormous potential of water for the development of new and unique chemistries and synthetic strategies, while at the same time offering a much reduced environmental impact.

Gavin Mahoney and Deb Bradley, having committed to their burgeoning relationship move to a new city and state to start a new life together. Gavin, having been headhunted to teach Criminology at the University of Mary Washington in historic Fredericksburg, Virginia, attempts to step away from law enforcement to make his beloved happy, while she insists that she only needs his happiness to achieve that goal. But unbeknownst to them, out of the past steps a nightmare with an ax to grind, drawing Gavin back to law enforcement when a neighbor's 10-year-old son is discovered murdered in their apartment building's dumpster. Accepting a position with the Fredericksburg Police Department, Gavin embarks on an investigation into a diabolical serial killer known as the Songster...who seems to know a little too much about Gavin Mahoney.
The debut YA novel of 2016 that everyone will be talking about.
"Long ago in 1945 all the nice people in England were poor, allowing for exceptions," begins The Girls of Slender Means, Dame Muriel Spark's tragic and rapier-witted portrait of a London ladies' hostel just emerging from the shadow of World War II. Like the May of Teck Club itself—"three times window shattered since 1940 but never directly hit"—its lady inhabitants do their best to act as if the world were back to normal: practicing elocution, and jostling over suitors and a single Schiaparelli gown. The novel's harrowing ending reveals that the girls' giddy literary and amorous peregrinations are hiding some tragically painful war wounds. Chosen by Anthony Burgess as one of the Best Modern Novels in the Sunday Times of London, The Girls of Slender Means is a taut and eerily perfect novel by an author The New York Times has called "one of this century's finest creators of comic-metaphysical entertainment."
Roland Scheel zeichnet ein grundlegend neues Bild der kulturellen Beziehungen zwischen Byzanz und den skandinavischen Ländern: Das jeweils Andere wird um 1200 zu einer wirkmächtigen semantischen Chiffre. Diese Sinnaufladung erweist sich als derart bedeutend, dass sie das Mittelalter hindurch bis in die Moderne in Europa identitätsprägend wirkt. Ergänzt wird die Studie durch umfassende Quellenregesten.
