Battery material research has been one of the major areas of study in the last ~30 years due to the huge impact of battery technology in our daily lives. Both the discovery of new materials and their electrochemical optimization requires an in-depth and fundamental understanding of the composition and structure at different length scales. Local, long-range structure, polymorphism, microstructure, composite formulation and nanoscale engineering all contribute to a materials innate ability to deliver the best performance as an electrode in a battery. Importantly, the evolution of all these components during battery function determine essentially all the pertinent battery characteristics such a...
The Handbook of Clean Energy Systems brings together an international team of experts to present a comprehensive overview of the latest research, developments and practical applications throughout all areas of clean energy systems.

Microalgae could play an important role in the achievement of sustainability goals related to the generation of renewable energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. These photosynthetic microorganisms are able to capture CO2 and, therefore, can be used to produce biofuels such as ethanol, methane and green diesel. Other factors, such as their high growth rate, ability to use wastewater as a culture medium and the ability to grow on non-arable land makes them a potentially economical source of biofuel production on a large scale. This monograph introduces the reader to the basic and applied science of microalgal biofuel production. Chapters in the volume give information about bioethanol and biogas production from microalgal sources, the fermentation process, optimization of culture parameters and industrial applications of biomass projects. The book is a useful reference for biotechnology and environmental science graduates and professionals interested in biofuel production.
