Solution Combustion Synthesis of Nanostructured Solid Catalysts for Sustainable Chemistry

The term 'green chemistry' was coined by Anastas and Warner in the early 1990s and it is nowadays the mainstay of designing and implementing advanced chemical processes that decrease or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances whilst minimizing energy consumption.Solution Combustion Synthesis of Nanostructured Solid Catalysts for Sustainable Chemistry is an interdisciplinary collection of fundamental and applied cutting-edge studies which highlight general and specific aspects of the synthesis of nanostructured catalysts through Solution Combustion Synthesis (SCS), studying their applications from the perspective of green chemistry.This book intends to integrate the fundamental principles of the SCS process with its engineering aspects and covers the synthesis of a wide variety of catalytic materials. This reference book can be used as a permanent consulting material for students, researchers and the general readership for green chemistry, nanochemistry, materials science and chemical engineering.Contents: Green Chemistry for Solution Combustion Synthesis of Advanced Catalysts and Materials (Sergio L González-Cortés, Afrah M Aldawsari, and Serbia Rodulfo-Baechler)Microwave-Assisted Solution Combustion Synthesis of Nanostructured Catalysts (Deshetti Jampaiah, Perala Venkataswamy, and Benjaram M Reddy)Solution Combustion Synthesis Related to Photocatalytic Reactions (Sounak Roy and Swapna Challagulla)Solution Combustion Synthesis for Electrochemistry Applications (Wei Wen and Jin-Ming Wu)Solution Combustion Approach for the Synthesis of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Materials and Coatings (S T Aruna and S Senthil Kumar)Green SCS: Hydrogen Production, Further Applications, Conclusion and Path Forward (Sergio L González-Cortés)
