Sommario/riassunto

One of the first books to cover transformation products, rather than primary compounds, Transformation Products of Emerging Contaminants in the Environment gathers, specifies, synthesizes, and advances existing knowledge of the most important transformation product (TPs) of the main groups of emerging contaminants with potential concern to human health and the environment. This two-volume set for researchers and professionals covers the sources of TPs



of emerging contaminants and their environmental behavior, their occurrence and effects on urban and marine environments, risk assessment

Photocatalysis: basics principles -- Strategy I: Doping  -- Strategy II: Utilizing metal nanoparticles in the form of deposited or embedded formations  -- Strategy III: Formation of heterojunction -- Strategy IV: Playing with morphology and structure of metal oxide materials -- Intrinsic deficiency -- Strategies to improve photocatalysts: future perspectives.



Sommario/riassunto

This book investigates applicability of various emerging strategies to improve important properties and features of metal oxide materials that can be used further to advance their photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical performances. The range of discussed strategies includes introduction of intrinsic and extrinsic deficiencies, fabrication of heterojunction and utilizing of metal nanoparticles in the form of deposited or embedded formations. Each of them is addressed as separate case in order to reach full and comprehensive assessment of their most fundamental principles and basics as well as accessing pivotal advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, additional discussion is dedicated to achieving thorough awareness over methods and experimental protocols that are used to realize them and also probing changes which they induce in electronic and geometrical configurations of metal oxide materials. It is believed that this book might become a valuable addition to extend further current knowledge about photocatalysis and material processing. Investigates strategies to improve efficiency and stability of metal oxide materials to perform photocatalytic reactions; Access the most fundamental principles of photocatalysis with regard to its expected advancement and future perspective; Compares applicability of strategies to specific metal oxide materials and defines factors that have the greatest effect.
