It also examines a range of durable, energy-efficient, and next-generation construction and building materials and energy fuel storage applications produced from PPE wastes. The topics covered include impact of PPE waste generation during COVID-19 pandemic on the environmental sustainability and its economic aspects, circular economy for advanced materials from used PPEs, conversion technologies, sustainability, reuse, and end of life materials from PPEs used in COVID-19 pandemic and microwave and plasma conversion technologies for used PPEs. The book also discusses thermo-chemical conversion technologies, various properties, and performance attributes. The book is a valuable reference for researchers and professionals in the areas of material science. It also proves as a valuable resource for policymakers and administrators involved in regulatory aspects of PPE kits. 410 0$aMaterials Horizons: From Nature to Nanomaterials,$x2524-5392 606 $aBiomaterials 606 $aMaterials$xAnalysis 606 $aMaterials 606 $aBiomedical Materials 606 $aMaterials Characterization Technique 606 $aMaterials Engineering 615 0$aBiomaterials. 615 0$aMaterials$xAnalysis. 615 0$aMaterials. 615 14$aBiomedical Materials. 615 24$aMaterials Characterization Technique. 615 24$aMaterials Engineering. 676 $a687.162 702 $aSundaramurthy$b Suresh 702 $aVerma$b Sarika 702 $aSrivastava$b Avanish Kumar 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910886069503321 996 $aAdvanced Materials and Conversion Technologies for Personal Protective Equipment Used in the COVID-19 Pandemic$94383306 997 $aUNINA
