Abstract

Seawater desalination is increasingly being used as a means to augment freshwater supplies in regions with high water stress, and reverse osmosis is increasingly the technology of choice because of the low energy consumption. However, seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) systems suffer from various types of fouling, which can increase energy consumption and the use of chemicals during SWRO operation. In practice, pre-treatment systems are put in place to reduce the particulate and biological fouling potential of SWRO feed water. However, simple, reliable and accurate methods to assess the extent to which biological fouling potential is reduced during pre-treatment are not available for seawater.

Abstract

Here in one volume is summarized a vast amount of information on the physical principles of hydrodynamics in porous media, gathered from numerous publications. This new edition represents a substantial revision of the second, incorporating the most recent developments in the field. Alterations have been made throughout, new sections have been added, and the chapter on 'Miscible Displacement' has been rewritten. As in previous editions, the stress is on general physical aspects of phenomena rather than on particular cases, on theoretical rather than experimental aspects have been emphasized. Literature references have been chosen carefully to lead the reader to the most useful sources of additional information on particular aspects.

Abstract

This book collects up-to-date advanced protocols and advice from leading experts in the area of membrane protein biology that can be applied to structural and functional studies of any membrane protein system. The contents explore methods for cloning and expression of membrane proteins and membrane protein complexes in prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems, approaches for protein purification, nanobody applications, as well as biophysical characterization and much more. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and thorough, Expression, Purification, and Structure Biology of Membrane Proteins serves to guide and encourage young researchers and newcomers to the field to tackle bold new studies on membrane proteins. Chapter 11 is available open access under a CC-BY 4.0 license via link.springer.com.

Abstract

Biomass can be used to produce renewable electricity, thermal energy, transportation fuels (biofuels), and high-value functional chemicals. As an energy source, biomass can be used either directly via combustion to produce heat or indirectly after it is converted to one of many forms of bioenergy and biofuel via thermochemical or biochemical pathways. The conversion of biomass can be achieved using various advanced methods, which are broadly classified into thermochemical conversion, biochemical conversion, electrochemical conversion, and so on. Advanced development technologies and processes are able to convert biomass into alternative energy sources in solid (e.g., charcoal, biochar, and RDF), liquid (biodiesel, algae biofuel, bioethanol, and pyrolysis and liquefaction bio-oils), and gaseous (e.g., biogas, syngas, and biohydrogen) forms. Because of the merits of biomass energy for environmental sustainability, biofuel and bioenergy technologies play a crucial role in renewable energy development and the replacement of chemicals by highly functional biomass. This book provides a comprehensive overview and in-depth technical research addressing recent progress in biomass conversion processes. It also covers studies on advanced techniques and methods for bioenergy and biofuel production.

Abstract

Energy is a fundamental social need and plays an essential role in driving economic growth. The emerging economy requires the support of a reliable, affordable, and energy system with low carbon emissions and air pollutants. System design is important in facilitating sustainable development. Various works that aspire to promote sustainable system design by addressing the issues of enhancing energy and environmental performance were presented in the Special Issue (SI) of the 22nd Conference on Process Integration, Modelling and Optimisation for Energy Saving and Pollution Reduction (PRES’19). The contribution can be categorised into four topics focused on modelling, simulation, optimisation, and assessment studies, on the topics of: (a) heat integration and heat transfer, (b) integrated and newly developed heat exchangers, (c) integration of renewables (d) roles in economic and environmental sustainability. This book is complemented with an editorial review, to highlight the broader state-of-the-art development.
