This book
explains an overview of chemical reagents used in inorganic chemical reactions
fior the synthesis of different compounds including coordination, transition
metal, organometallic, cluster, bioinorganic, and solid-state compounds. This
book will be helpful for the graduate students, teachers, and researchers, and
chemistry professionals who are interested to fortify and expand their knowledge
about sol-gel preparation and application, porphyrin and phthalocyanine, carbon
nanotube nanohybrids, triple bond between arsenic and group 13 elements, and
N-heterocyclic carbene and its heavier analogues.
Authored
by Michael Schorr and Benjamin Valdez, the book covers critical applications of
phosphoric acid in several sectors, particularly in the production of phosphatic
fertilizers, metal surface treatments, and in the food and beverages industry.
It now forms a staple part in many industrial applications, such as steel
pickling, improved adhesion of paint, and preventing iron sedimentation from
becoming suspended in foods and beverages, such as cola. It addresses several
problems experienced in phosphoric acid industries-though, not exhaustive, it
covers some of the most significant ones: environmental concerns and supply
chain issues among others; technological inefficiencies are included in this
study. The book also presents practical solutions to the challenges identified,
which makes it a high resource for professionals and researchers in these
industries. Dealing with both the technical and industrial point of view
concerning the applications and problems related to the production of phosphoric
acid, this book contributes towards a better understanding of its applications
and towards improved practice in synthesis and use.
In this critical approach at ozone, the two take a
critical approach but is seen at the same time that it has this duality of
protecting the stratosphere, while polluting the ground level. Through this
book, one should expect a detailed analysis concerning environmental protection,
efforts to protect the ozone layer, and avoidance of ground-level formation of
ozone contributing to air pollution. Interests covered by the authors are
topics: strong oxidizing properties of ozone, applications in water and
wastewater treatment and medicine for disinfection and therapeutic treatment.
The book will become a useful source for environmental scientists and engineers,
health professionals interested in ecological and practical implications of
ozone, and those focused on its technological applications.
