Biomass-Derived Materials for Environmental Applications

Biomass-Derived Materials for Environmental Applications presents  state-of-the-art coverage of bio-based materials that can be applied to  address the growing global concern of pollutant discharge in the  environment. The book examines the production, characterization and  application of bio-based materials for remediation. Organized clearly by  type of material, the book includes details on lignocellulosic  materials, natural clays, carbonaceous materials, composites and  advanced materials from natural origins. Readers will find an  interdisciplinary and practical examination of these materials and their  use in environmental remediation that will be valuable to environmental  scientists, materials scientists, environmental chemists, and  environmental engineers alike.
