Handbook of Nanomaterials and Nanocomposites for Energy and Environmental Applications
Springer International Publishing
978-3-030-36267-6 (ISBN)
This exhaustive Handbook covers the synthesis and applications of nanomaterials that can be used in energy and environmental science applications. Given the pressing need for more efficient energy sources at lower costs, this book will help to provide a more cohesive understanding of nanocomposites and nanomaterials. Each chapter in this handbook is written by an expert in his or her field, and topics ranging from energy efficiency to material performance are presented. Catalysis, ceramic science, metallurgy, coatings, and green, sustainable materials are included. This Handbook provides a comprehensive guide to the field of applied nanomaterials. It will drive interest and research in the use of nanocomposites and nanomaterials for energy and environmental applications.
Dr. Oxana V. Kharissova (born in 1969 in Ukraine, former USSR, has lived in Mexico from 1995, and naturalized in Mexico in 2004) is currently a Professor and Researcher at the UANL. Degrees: An MS in 1994, in crystallography from Moscow State University, Russia, and a Ph.D. in Materials from the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León, Mexico. Memberships: National Researchers System (Level II), Materials Research Society. She is the co-author of four books, 3 book chapters, 75 articles, and holds four patents. Specialties: Nanotechnology (carbon nanotubes, nanometals, fullerenes), microwave irradiation and crystallography; nanotechnology-based methods for petroleum treatment. Professor Dr. Leticia M. Torres-Martínez is recognized as Certified Leader in Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Applied by Harvard University, USA. She has the following academic products: more than 163 indexed articles, 60 directed these, 1 authorized patent and 4 registered, 7 chapters book, 2 books, 343 lectures, 7 proceeding books, 21 innovations and technological developments, 54 research projects, 1,443 citations to publications, leader of 5 research groups and 3 national scientific networks, 5 designed and implemented postgraduate programs. Two of these programs were designed and offered as UNI-Enterprise (Vitro and Cemex). She designed and implemented the Center for Research and Development of Ceramic Materials (CIDEMAC), which was self-financed during her leadership. Her research lines of interest include the development of advanced materials for renewable energy systems and sustainable environmental decontamination; synthesis and characterization of multifunctional materials; development of semiconductor materials for use in environmental catalysis for remediation of water, soil and H2 generation. She has more than 61 national and international awards and recognitions, which include awards for UANL Best Research Work in Exact Sciences and Engineering and Technology areas.
