{"product_id":"introduction-to-green-chemistry","title":"Introduction to Green Chemistry","description":"Interest in green chemistry and clean processes has grown so much in recent years that topics such as fluorous biphasic catalysis, metal organic frameworks, and process intensification, which were barely mentioned in the First Edition, have become major areas of research. In addition, government funding has ramped up the development of fuel cells and biofuels. This reflects the evolving focus from pollution remediation to pollution prevention.Copiously illustrated with more than 800 figures, the Third Edition provides an update from the frontiers of the field. It features supplementary exercises at the end of each chapter relevant to the chemical examples introduced in each chapter. Particular attention is paid to a new concluding chapter on the use of green metrics as an objective tool to demonstrate proof of synthesis plan efficiency and to identify where further improvements can be made through fully worked examples relevant to the chemical industry.NEW AND EXPANDED RESEARCH TOPICS\u003cul\u003e   Metal-organic frameworks  Metrics  Solid acids for alkylation of isobutene by butanes  Carbon molecular sieves  Mixed micro- and mesoporous solids  Organocatalysis  Process intensification and gas phase enzymatic reactions  Hydrogen storage for fuel cells  Reactive distillation  Catalysts in action on an atomic scaleUPDATED AND EXPANDED CURRENT EVENTS TOPICS\u003cul\u003e   Industry resistance to inherently safer chemistry  Nuclear power  Removal of mercury from vaccines  Removal of mercury and lead from primary explosives  Biofuels  Uses for surplus glycerol  New hard materials to reduce wear  Electronic waste  Smart growthThe book covers traditional green chemistry topics, including catalysis, benign solvents, and alternative feedstocks. It also discusses relevant but less frequently covered topics with chapters such as \"Chemistry of Long Wear\" and \"Population and the Environment.\" This coverage highlights the importance of chemistry to everyday life and demonstrates the benefits the expanded exploitation of green chemistry can have for society.\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44559780348142,"sku":"9780367470487","price":241.4,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/introduction-to-green-chemistry","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
