Nanocomposites for Environmental, Energy, and Agricultural Applications
Nanocomposites for Environmental, Energy and Agricultural Applications presents a comprehensive overview of recent developments and prospects for nanocomposites in sustainable/green energy production, water/wastewater treatment as well as crop production. Each chapter introduces the fundamental principles as well as the design and characterization of nanocomposites for various applications. This includes detailed discussions of nanocomposites technology, including mixed matrix membranes for water and gas separation, nanohybrid catalysts for organic pollutants degradation and sustainable energy production as well as advanced nanocomposites of different structural dimensions (0D, 1D, 2D and 3D...
Artificial Intelligence for Solar Photovoltaic Systems
This book provides a clear explanation of how to apply artificial intelligence (AI) to solve the challenges in solar photovoltaic technology. It introduces readers to new AI-based approaches and technologies that help manage and operate solar photovoltaic systems effectively. It also motivates readers to find new AI-based solutions for these challenges by providing a comprehensive collection of findings on AI techniques. It covers important topics including solar irradiance variability, solar power forecasting, solar irradiance forecasting, maximum power point tracking, hybrid algorithms, swarm optimization, evolutionary optimization, sensor-based sun- tracking systems, single-axis and dual-axis sun-tracking systems, smart metering, frequency regulation using AI, emerging multilevel inverter topologies, and voltage and reactive power control using AI. This book is useful for senior undergraduate students, graduate students, and academic researchers in areas such as electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering, computer science, and renewable energy.
Biofuels
Offering a comprehensive overview of biofuels and bioenergy systems, Biofuels: Technologies, Policies, and Opportunities describes advances in technologies and global policies around biofuels as a renewable energy source. It discusses the basics of biofuel and bioenergy systems and current status and potential challenges in developed and developing countries. The book also highlights the questions that should be asked, available options, and processes (conventional and advanced) to enhance biofuel production. Details how technological interventions can influence the operation of an effective bioenergy system. Presents information regarding renewable energy directives and global policies rela...
Global Climate Change and Environmental Policy
Global climate change threatens human existence through its potential impact on agriculture and the environment. Agriculture is climate-sensitive, and climate variability and climate change have net negative impact on it. Additionally, the agricultural landscape is affected by monoculture and agro-biodiversity loss, soil fertility depletion and soil loss, competition from biofuel production, crop yield plateaus and invasive species. Nevertheless, the global agricultural production system has to meet the food demands from the growing human population, which is set to exceed 10 billion by 2050. This book discusses the impacts of climate change on agriculture, animal husbandry and rural livelih...
