Encyclopedia of Energy Engineering and Technology - 3 Volume Set (Print Version) (v. 13)

CRC Press, 2007

Using limited resources in sustainable ways, energy engineers and technologists have made people's lives comfortable and affordable with efficient and cost-effective technology, from air conditioners to waste fuels. But to accommodate the expanding world population, the global supply of energy has been increasingly strained. Energy...

Vanadium: Chemistry, Biochemistry, Pharmacology and Practical Applications

CRC Press, 2007

The first comprehensive resource on the chemistry of vanadium, Vanadium: Chemistry, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, and Practical Applications has evolved from over a quarter century of research that concentrated on delineating the aqueous coordination reactions that characterize the vanadium(V) oxidation state. The authors distill...

Introduction to Quantum Theory and Atomic Structure (Oxford Chemistry Primers, 37)

Oxford University Press, 1996

This book illuminates the basic concepts of quantum chemistry, and emphasizes atomic structure but not molecular applications. The author starts with a survey of the basic ideas and problems of wave/particle duality, the nature of wave function, and its statistical interpretation. He then discusses some important applications of Schrodinger's...

Illustrated Guide to Home Chemistry Experiments: All Lab, No Lecture (DIY Science)

Maker Media, Inc, 2008

For students, DIY hobbyists, and science buffs, who can no longer get real chemistry sets, this one-of-a-kind guide explains how to set up and use a home chemistry lab, with step-by-step instructions for conducting experiments in basic chemistry -- not just to make pretty colors and stinky smells, but to learn how to do real lab...

The Martians of Science: Five Physicists Who Changed the Twentieth Century

Oxford University Press, 2006

If science has the equivalent of a Bloomsbury group, it is the five men born at the turn of the twentieth century in Budapest: Theodore von Karman, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, John von Neumann, and Edward Teller. From Hungary to Germany to the United States, they remained friends and continued to work together and influence each other throughout...

Energy and Climate: How to achieve a successful energy transition

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

Despite global concerns over dwindling resources, climate change and carbon dioxide emissions, fossil fuels still account for more than 80% of the world’s energy demands. As resources diminish and demand increases from rapidly developing nations such as China and India, the threat to both our environment and the security of our energy...

Fuel Cell Research Trends

Nova Press, 2008

A fuel cell is an electrochemical energy conversion device. It produces electricity from external supplies of fuel (on the anode side) and oxidant (on the cathode side). These react in the presence of an electrolyte. Generally, the reactants flow in and reaction products flow out while the electrolyte remains in the cell. Fuel...

Quantum Mechanics

Benjamin Cummings, 2003

The principles of quantum mechanics were formulated by many people during a short period of time at the beginning of the twentieth century. Max Planck wrote down his formula for the spectrum of blackbody radiation and introduced the constant that now bears his name in 1900. By 1924, through the work of Einstein, Rutherford and Bohr, Schrodinger and...

Fundamentals of Quantum Physics: Textbook for Students of Science and Engineering (Undergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics)

Springer, 2012

This book presents a comprehensive course of quantum mechanics for undergraduate and graduate students. After a brief outline of the innovative ideas that lead up to the quantum theory, the book reviews properties of the Schrödinger equation, the quantization phenomena and the physical meaning of wave functions. The book discusses, in a...

Advances in Bioethanol (SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology)

Springer, 2013

Disadvantages of fossil fuel derived transportation fuels (greenhouse gas emissions, pollution, resource depletion, unbalanced supply-demand relations) are strongly reduced or even absent with biotransportation fuels. Of all biofuels, ethanol is already produced on a fair scale. It produces slightly less greenhouse emissions than...

How Products Are Made: An Illustrated Guide to Product Manufacturing (How Products Are Made) Volume 4

Gale, 1998

Acetylene is a colorless, combustible gas with a distinctive odor. When acetylene is liquefied, compressed, heated, or mixed with air, it becomes highly explosive. As a result special precautions are required dur ing its production and handling. The most common use of acetylene is as a raw materi al for the production of various organic...
