Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book examines the latest developments in the important and growing field of producing conventional polymers from sustainable sources. With recent advancements in synthesis technologies and the discovery of new functional monomers, research shows that green polymers with better properties can be produced from renewable resources. This volume describes these advances in synthesis, processing, and technology and provides not only state-of-the-art information but also acts to stimulate research in this direction. Green Polymer Chemistry and Composites: Pollution Prevention and Waste Reduction illustrates how chemical industries play an essential role to sustain the world economies and looks at forthcoming technologies and scientific developments in novel products, less toxicological materials, and industrial procedures with high efficiency and renewable energy products. Green chemistry seeks for the design of innovative chemical products with higher efficiency and lowest hazardous substances for the health and the environment.

Book excerpt: Im Toxic Substances Control Act (ToSCA) von 1984 wurde festgelegt, unter welchen Bedingungen Polymere von den toxikologischen Anforderungen befreit sind, die üblicherweise an neue Verbindungen gestellt werden. Diese Richtlinien wurden 1995 neu gefaßt. "Designing Safer Polymers" will dem Hersteller oder Importeur solcher Chemikalien im wesentlichen folgende Fragen beantworten: Ist der von ihm betrachtete Stoff ein Polymer im Sinne der Ausnahmeregelung? Erfüllt der Stoff die Bedingungen für eine Befreiung gemäß ToSCA? Welche Faktoren stehen der Befreiung gegebenenfalls im Wege? Ein informatives Handbuch für die Praxis! (01/01)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial Pollution Control: Issues and Techniques Second Edition Nancy J. Sell This revised guide incorporates all the important information on pollution sources, control methods, and pollution regulations generated since publication of the previous edition in 1981. This edition surveys the impacts of every type of pollution on health, plants, materials, and weather. It discusses how different types of pollution are produced, laws governing specific emissions, and both existing and emerging air, water, and solid waste control techniques. Detailed sections zero in on processing methods, pollution production, and control methods in specific industries, including chemical, physical, and economic factors that inhibit better pollution control. Case studies offer insights into processes that directly minimize emissions or indirectly reduce them by decreasing energy needs. Pollution issues of iron and steel manufacturing, foundry operations, metals finishing, cement manufacture, glass manufacture, paper and pulp, food processing, brewing, tanning, and chemical industries are probed in depth. Among the new pollution control strategies covered are: * Regulations, treatment techniques, and disposal methods for hazardous wastes * Direct steelmaking processes that reduce pollution * Modified glassmaking furnaces that decrease pollution * Non-chlorine pulp bleaching sequences that curtail production of toxic substances such as dioxin * Secondary fiber utilization and reduction of PCB emissions * Resource recovery from sludges and ashes * Chemical spill containment and cleanup * Uses of degradation and recycling to reduce plastics waste Coverage of the impact of U.S. regulations, status of the U.S. environment, continuing problems, economic costs, and cost-benefit issues further increases the value of this source to environmental engineers and scientists working for the EPA, state regulatory agencies, or consulting engineering firms. This guide is also a vital reference for environmentalists working with advocacy groups, and environmental or process engineers in industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As environmental performance becomes increasingly important, the development of man-made polymers and their associated benefits has been overshadowed by problems relating to their ultimate disposal. In the light of wider acceptance of polymers for use in high technology applications, Polymers and the Environment aims to redress the balance. The book reviews the properties and industrial applications of polymers and discusses their environmental benefits compared with traditional materials. It also addresses the issues of polymer durability, recycling processes to aid waste minimization and biodegradable polymers. This text is intended to introduce the non-specialist reader to the benefits and limitations of polymeric materials from an environmental viewpoint, and will prove a useful book for both students and professionals.
