The integration of such membranes with appropriate catalysts in membrane reactors allows for hydrogen production with CO2 capture that can be applied in smaller bioenergy or combined heat and power (CHP) plants, as well as in large-scale power plants. Pd-based membranes are therefore regarded as a Key Enabling Technology (KET) to facilitate the transition towards a knowledge-based, low-carbon, and resource-efficient economy. This Special Issue of the journal Membranes on "Pd-based Membranes: Overview and Perspectives" contains nine peer-reviewed articles. Topics include manufacturing techniques, understanding of material phenomena, module and reactor design, novel applications, and demonstration efforts and industrial exploitation. 610 00$areview; palladium; membrane; Pd alloy; electroless plating; membrane reactor; hydrogen separation; hydrogen production; MLLDP; porous membrane; pore mouth size distribution; dense Pd membrane; defect distribution; methanol steam reforming; hydrogen production; modelling; membrane reactors; membrane; hydrogen; palladium alloy; grain boundary; chemical potential; activity; hydrides; solubility; membranes; Pd-Ag membranes; hydrogen permeation; surface characterization; solubility; heat treatment; Pd-based membrane; hydrogen; closed architecture; open architecture; gas to liquid; propylene; membrane reactor; hydrogen; palladium; microstructured; LOHC; suspension plasma spraying; LOHC; dehydrogenation; multi-stage; PdAg-membrane; micro reactor; hydrogen purification; palladium-based membrane; hydrogen; manufacturing; demonstration 700 $aPeters$b Thijs$01296339 702 $aCaravella$b Alessio 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765784903321 996 $aPd-based Membranes$94322339 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03431nam 22006255 450 001 9911001464003321 005 20250503130202.0 010 $a981-9653-34-7 024 7 $a10.1007/978-981-96-5334-8 035 $a(CKB)38753329600041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-981-96-5334-8 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32077322 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32077322 035 $a(EXLCZ)9938753329600041 100 $a20250503d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aOn Politicking $ePolitics as Practice: From Coercion to Preemption /$fby Ralph Pettman 205 $a1st ed. 2025. 210 1$aSingapore :$cSpringer Nature Singapore :$cImprint: Springer,$d2025. 215 $a1 online resource (XV, 164 p. 1 illus.) 311 08$a981-9653-33-9 327 $aIntroduction: What is politics -- Coercion -- Negotiation -- Reconciliation -- Exploitation -- Indoctrination -- Ratiocination -- Marginalization -- Preemption -- Conclusion: What is politicking. 330 $aThis book is unusual in that, although it asks a familiar question, it provides an unfamiliar answer. What's more, it's the most coherent and comprehensive answer possible. Most people say politics is about how societies organise their affairs, or about different kinds of government, or about who rules and why. The problem is that though they aren't wrong, they're only partly right. Social order, government and rule are all important, but they're part of a bigger picture. Politics is about much, much more. In short, it's about politicking, which is a fundamental form of behavior that involves a number of very specific practices. These include coercion, persuasion, reconciliation, exploitation, indoctrination, ratiocination, marginalization, and preemption. This is how people try to get their own way, either as individuals or in groups. It goes on all the time, too, within and between individuals, and at all other social levels, like families, bands, tribes, gangs, clubs, clans, offices, institutions, professions, companies, cities, provinces, countries, and religions. Most of this story never gets told, which is why this book was written. It has considerable theoretical significance, and a wide range of practical examples are provided throughout to illustrate the case it makes. 606 $aDiversity in the workplace 606 $aNonprofit organizations 606 $aEmployees$xCoaching of 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aNew business enterprises 606 $aCross-Cultural Management 606 $aNon-Profit Organizations and Public Enterprises 606 $aTeam Coaching 606 $aEntrepreneurship 615 0$aDiversity in the workplace. 615 0$aNonprofit organizations. 615 0$aEmployees$xCoaching of. 615 0$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aNew business enterprises. 615 14$aCross-Cultural Management. 615 24$aNon-Profit Organizations and Public Enterprises. 615 24$aTeam Coaching. 615 24$aEntrepreneurship. 676 $a658.3008 676 $a303.482 700 $aPettman$b Ralph$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0246772 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911001464003321 996 $aOn Politicking$94385232 997 $aUNINA
