Nanomaterials from Renewable Resources for Emerging Applications details developments in nanomaterials produced from renewable materials and their usage in food and packaging, energy conservation, and environmental applications.

• Introduces fundamentals of nanomaterials from renewable resources, including processing and characterization.

• Covers nanomaterials for applications in food and packaging, including nanocellulose, lignin- and chitosan-based nanomaterials, and nanostarch.

• Discusses applications in energy conservation, such as supercapacitors, electrolyte membranes, energy storage devices, and insulation.

• Describes environmental uses such as water remediation and purification and oil spill clean-ups.

• Highlights advantages and challenges in commercialization of green nanoparticle-based materials.

Equally beneficial to researchers and professionals, this book is aimed at readers across materials science and engineering, chemical engineering, chemistry, and related fields interested in sustainable engineering.

Sandeep S. Ahankari is Associate Professor in the School of Mechanical Engineering at VIT University, India. He pursued his PhD in Materials Science from IIT Kanpur, India and postdoctoral research at University of Guelph, Canada. His areas of interest include processing and thermo-mechanical characterization of bio/polymer nanocomposites and functionally graded composites. He is currently working on two projects of SERB, DST, India. The Start-up Research Grant aims at the facilitated separation of CO2 from biogas through membrane technology while the ASEAN-India Collaborative Research and Development focuses on the fabrication of flexible, shape memory supercapacitor for wireless health monitoring devices. He has 20 international journal papers, more than 20 international conference papers, 14 book chapters, and 5 filed patents to his credit. Amar Mohanty is currently a Professor and a Distinguished Research Chair in Sustainable Biomaterials at the Ontario Agriculture College (OAC) in the Department of Plant Agriculture and holds a joint appointment in the School of Engineering at the University of Guelph. He serves as the Director of the Bioproducts Discovery and Development Centre at the University of Guelph, Canada. Dr. Mohanty is an internationally recognized leader in the field of sustainable polymers and biobased composites. His interest and expertise include circular economy, environmental sustainability, waste plastic valorization, biodegradable plastics and biocarbon based composites.
