Biopolymers and biocatalysis in sustainable development
Polymers can play a major role in the pursuit of sustainability and the design of chemical products and processes that are more eco-friendly, biodegradable, and less hazardous. This work explores recent research developments and applications in polymer science and their connections to sustainability and green chemistry. Chapter topics include the use of enzymes for polymers, green sustainable building blocks, and green sustainable films and bioplastics. Scientists, engineers, educators, and
students involved or interested in green polymer chemistry and sustainability will find this book useful.
H. N. Cheng (Ph.D., University of Illinois) is currently a research chemist at Southern Regional Research Center of the U.S. Department of Agriculture inNew Orleans, where he works on projects involving improved utilization of commodity agricultural materials, green chemistry, and polymer reactions. Prior to 2009 he worked for Hercules Incorporated where he was involved at various times with new product development, team and project leadership, new business evaluation, pioneering research, and supervision of analytical research. Over the years, his research interests have included green polymer chemistry, agro-based materials, biocatalysis, pulp and paper chemistry, functional foods, polymer characterization, and NMR spectroscopy. An ACS Fellow (2009), a POLY Fellow (2010), and an AGFD Fellow (2018), he has authored or co-authored over 280 papers, 26 patent publications, co-edited 21 books, and organized or co-organized 40 symposia since 2000. He is currently (2020) the President-Elect of ACS and will serve as ACS President in 2021. Richard A. Gross (Ph.D., Polytechnic University) holds Constellation Chaired Professorship at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) and is also a member of RPI's Departments of Chemistry and Biology as well as Biomedical Engineering. Previously he was on the faculty of University of Massachusetts (Lowell) (1988?1998) and occupied the Herman F. Mark Chair Professorship at Polytechnic University (1998-2013). His research is focused on developing biocatalytic routes to biobased materials, combining chemical methods with cell-free and whole-cell biocatalytic systems to produce a large number of new biobased materials. He has over 400 publications in peer-reviewed journals with approximately 26,000 citations, has edited 7 books, and has been granted or filed 26 patents. He has received numerous awards, including Presidential Green Chemistry Award in the academic category (2003), induction into the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (2007), Turner Alfrey Visiting Professor (2010), POLY Fellow (2015), Lifetime Achievement Award from the Bio-Environmental Polymer Society (2017) and the 2018 recipient of the Affordable Green Chemistry Award from the ACS.
