Nanotechnology for the Energy Challenge

Logged-in users coming from that site will be authenticated by www. Hardly anyone questions the predictions that nanotechnology will have a major impact on the energy sector, and Nanotechnology for the Energy Challenge should leave no doubt among readers that nanotechnology will dramatically change all aspects of energy generation, storage, and transmission over the next few years. The book covers recent progress as well as exciting activities at the development stage. This major contribution to the energy debate does not aim to cover all the additional energy savings that nanotechnology will bring through more durable coatings and new composite materials, but focuses on three main themes: The chapters are written by world leaders in the specific fields, and the information contained in those chapters is extremely comprehensive and up to date, and is well illustrated where necessary.

There are five chapters in the section on sustainable energy production that describe the impact of nanotechnology on photovoltaics, thermal-electrical energy conversion, fuel cells, and hydrogen production. The section on efficient energy storage has four chapters covering hydrogen and electrochemical energy storage, as well as developments in nanomaterials for supercapacitors.

The final section on energy sustainability has six chapters on topics such as green nanofabrication, nanocatalysts, carbon dioxide capture, organic light emitting devices, and progress in energy efficient buildings.

With the daunting energy challenges faced by Mankind in the 21st century, revolutionary new technologies will be the key to a clean, secure and sustainable energy future. Nanostructures often have surprising and very useful capabilities and are thus paving the way for new methodologies in almost every kind of industry.

This exceptional monograph provides an overview of the subject, and presents the current state of the art with regard to different aspects of sustainable production, efficient storage and low-impact use of energy. Part I Sustainable Energy Production covers the main developments of nanotechnology in clean energy production and conversion, including photovoltaics, hydrogen production, thermal-electrical energy conversion and fuel cells. Part II Efficient Energy Storage is concerned with the potential use of nanomaterials in more efficient energy storage systems such as advanced batteries, supercapacitors and hydrogen storage.

Part III Energy Sustainability shows how nanotechnology helps to use energy more efficiently, and the mitigation of impacts to the environment, with special emphasis on energy savings through green nanofabrication, advanced catalysis, nanostructured light-emitting and eletrochromic devices and CO2 capture by nanoporous materials. An essential addition to any bookshelf, it will be invaluable to a variety of research fields including materials science, chemical engineering, solid state, surface, industrial, and physical chemistry, as this is a subject that is very interdisciplinary.
