Abstract:
Materials Advances for Sustainable Environment and Energy: Theory,
Status, and Challenges, book concisely summarise the possible ways
to harvest hydrogen from water and also reduce CO2 into various
hydrocarbons. A special emphasis is given on the figure-of-merits
for the currently developed system/materials for hydrogen generation
and CO2 reduction. We further have summarised the trends in materials
innovation and the corresponding state-of-art to achieve the desired
efficiency and stability considering the cost of production as well.
Finally, the future prospects of this sustainable alternative
fuel will be summarized for the possible future strategy in
adopting these sustainable solutions at the commercial level.
This book can be used as for developing understanding in
this field in terms of fundamentals, materials advances, and
devices deployment. The students and researchers from
energy, environment, materials, chemistry, electrochemistry, etc.,
background will find it useful to stay unburst in this field.
