À propos de cet e-book

With emphasis now on sustainable development there is a paradigm shift from the classical linear model to the concept of the Circular Economy. In terms of materials development this will entail new innovations in eco-friendly materials synthesis, sustainable and eco-friendly materials as well as state-of-the-art technologies for production of these materials in the process industries and manufacturing sector. With regards to advanced materials, systematic synthesis will become extremely important for controlling the structure of the material to provide precision tailored properties for the rise in demanding applications. Biocomposites and Nanomaterials: A Circular Economy Approach addresses many of the issues mentioned above. Emphasis is placed on engineering scalability of processes and the use of a circular economy approach. The chapters cover recent research and developments in the areas of biocomposites, bio-adhesives, bioplastics, keratin-based products, and pharmaceutical products. The sustainable and effective production of biocomposites and nanomaterials, including biomaterials, heterogeneous catalysis, process intensification, carbon sequestration, waste management and value-added products are discussed in detail. Containing numerous industrial case studies and being comprehensive in scope, the book focuses on innovative materials developments and applications that showcase a circular economy approach. - Covers biocomposites and innovative materials with a circular economy approach - Addresses fundamentals, key concepts, and all pillars of the circular economy - State of the art green technologies are outlined with specific applications with an emphasis on societal benefits - Covers synthesis and applications, as well as recycling, reuse, and end of life - Future perspectives, are also discussed
