Handbook of Emerging Materials for Sustainable Energy

Handbook of Emerging Materials for Sustainable Energy provides a comprehensive account of the fundamentals, current developments, challenges, as well as the future prospects of emerging materials for the development of sustainable energy. Each chapter addresses a distinct and important area within the energy field and includes comprehensive data to support the materials being presented. Section 1 discusses Batteries, Capacitors and Supercapacitors, Fuel cells, Thermoelectrics, Novel illumination sources and techniques, Photovoltaics & Solar cells and Alternative energy sources. Section 2 is focused on hydrogen as an energy source, including hydrogen production and fuel generation. The next two chapters look at the use of Biofuels, as well as Carbon dioxide. The book concludes with three chapters related to advanced materials under development for energy conservation and environmental protection; theories, methodologies and simulations established for the advanced materials; and finally advanced materials characterization techniques. This book will be a go-to reference for those involved in the field of sustainable energy. Covers a broad scope of advanced materials that have been developed for the energy and environmental sustainability Provides detailed and updated information about the structural and functional features of various emerging materials and their multifaceted applications Includes supplementary data alongside each chapter INDICE: 1.
