Biogenic-Based Metal Nanomaterials for Sustainable Engineering Applications (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The intersection of nanotechnology and sustainable engineering has given rise to increased interest in biogenic approaches, i.e., the use of natural biological processes to create metal nanomaterials. This new volume, Biogenic-Based Metal Nanomaterials for Sustainable Engineering Applications, covers this exciting and rapidly evolving field comprehensively, providing a detailed and structured exploration of biogenic metal nanomaterials, from their synthesis and characterization to their diverse applications in sustainable engineering. The chapters cover a wide range of topics, starting with an introduction to the basic principles and advantages of biogenic synthesis and then delving into the various biological agents used in this process, examining how different organisms can be harnessed to produce specific types of metal nanomaterials.

A significant portion of the book is dedicated to the characterization techniques that are essential for understanding the properties and behavior of these nanomaterials. Detailed discussions on structural, chemical, and surface characterization provide readers with the tools needed to analyze and optimize biogenic nanomaterials for specific applications.

The book explores practical applications such as for environmental remediation, energy storage, catalysis, biomedical uses, etc., for a wide array of sustainable engineering uses. Case studies and real-world examples are included to illustrate how these materials are being used to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time. The book also addresses the challenges and future directions of the field, covering scalability, regulatory issues, and safety providing insights into ongoing research and potential solutions.

Reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of the field, combining knowledge from biology, chemistry, materials science, and engineering, this book will serve as a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, students, and practitioners interested in sustainable nanotechnology.
