This book was released on 2022-08-04 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alkali-activated materials, including geopolymers, are being studied at an increasing pace for various high-value applications. The main drivers for this emerging interest include the low-energy, low-cost, and readily up-scalable manufacturing process; the possibility to utilize industrial wastes and by-products as raw materials; and beneficial material properties comparable to conventional materials. It has already been verified that alkali-activated materials are very versatile in environmental technology applications for pollution control. The current research in the field focuses on advanced manufacturing methods, material properties, and applications, for example, additive manufacturing, modification of surface chemistry, CO2 capture, and green catalysis. Alkali-Activated Materials in Environmental Technology Applications discusses what novel possibilities alkali-activated materials provide in comparison to conventional materials (such as high-temperature ceramics, synthetic zeolites, or organic polymers). The specific environmental applications that are covered include water and wastewater treatment, air pollution control, stabilization/solidification of hazardous wastes, and catalysts in chemical processes. In addition, preparation methods, material properties, and the chemistry of alkali-activated materials are revisited from the viewpoint of environmental technology applications. This book also discusses how well alkali-activated materials fit under the concepts of green chemistry and circular economy and how the life cycle analysis of these materials compares to conventional materials. Provides detailed information on preparation methods, material properties, and chemistry of alkali-activated materials for environmental technology applications Covers applications in water and wastewater treatment, air pollution control, solidification/stabilization of hazardous wastes; antimicrobial materials, and catalysis Discussed the performance of alkali-activated materials against conventional materials such as high-temperature ceramics, synthetic zeolites, or plastics Features case studies and bench/pilot-scale studies

Book excerpt: This book provides an updated state-of-the-art review on new developments in alkali-activation. The main binder of concrete, Portland cement, represents almost 80% of the total CO2 emissions of concrete which are about 6 to 7% of the Planet’s total CO2 emissions. This is particularly serious in the current context of climate change and it could get even worse because the demand for Portland cement is expected to increase by almost 200% by 2050 from 2010 levels, reaching 6000 million tons/year. Alkali-activated binders represent an alternative to Portland cement having higher durability and a lower CO2 footprint. Reviews the chemistry, mix design, manufacture and properties of alkali-activated cement-based concrete binders Considers performance in adverse environmental conditions. Offers equal emphasis on the science behind the technology and its use in civil engineering.

Book excerpt: Since the introduction of recombinant human growth hormone and insulin a quarter century ago, protein therapeutics has greatly broadened the ho- zon of health care. Many patients suffering with life-threatening diseases or chronic dysfunctions, which were medically untreatable not long ago, can attest to the wonder these drugs have achieved. Although the ?rst generation of p- tein therapeutics was produced in recombinant Escherichia coli, most recent products use mammalian cells as production hosts. Not long after the ?rst p- duction of recombinant proteins in E. coli, it was realized that the complex tasks of most post-translational modi?cations on proteins could only be ef?ciently carried out in mammalian cells. In the 1990s, we witnessed a rapid expansion of mammalian-cell-derived protein therapeutics, chie?y antibodies. In fact, it has been nearly a decade since the market value of mammalian-cell-derived protein therapeutics surpassed that of those produced from E. coli. A common characteristic of recent antibody products is the relatively large dose required for effective therapy, demanding larger quantities for the treatment of a given disease. This, coupled with the broadening repertoire of protein drugs, has rapidly expanded the quantity needed for clinical applications. The increasing demand for protein therapeutics has not been met exclusively by construction of new manufacturing plants and increasing total volume capacity. More - portantly the productivity of cell culture processes has been driven upward by an order of magnitude in the past decade.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advancements in technology have allowed oil, gas and geothermal well construction in into progressively more challenging subsurface environments, with deeper depths, higher temperatures and pressures, etc. With this progress arises the need for well cementing solutions that can perform better than ordinary portland cement (OPC), with an ability to better handle high pressure / high temperature (HPHT) conditions while possessing a more tolerant chemical composition to drilling mud contamination. Faulty cement jobs due to poor performance of OPC have allowed for the occurrence of micro annuli, putting many wells at risk of a well integrity failure. Such a failure compromises zonal isolation, which can in turn lead to high costs for repair that have not typically been factored into operating budgets. Likewise, civil infrastructure durability has become a key concern for much of the United States due to aging structures and the deterioration of OPC concrete with time. While performance concerns pose a significant risk, the CO2 emissions associated with OPC production are also at the forefront of concerns about climate change. The topic of this report is alkali-activated materials (AAM) or geopolymers, produced from fly ash, which are currently investigated for use as OPC alternatives. They are of interest because suitable strengths and rheological behaviors have been observed when these materials are subjected to elevated temperatures or mud contamination. To understand the effects of various activators and fly ash compositions on geopolymer formulations, a variety of tests have been conducted at different temperature and pressure conditions. These tests include measurements of rheological behavior, set time, unconfined compressive strength (UCS), tensile strength, and bond strength. As a result of this testing, it has been shown that geopolymers exhibit desirable rheological profiles and set times for a variety of different applications. Their compressive strength was also shown to be equivalent to - or greater than - OPC for most formulations. Furthermore, their tensile strengths and bond strength profiles were often found to be better than OPC. Ultimately, with this research, geopolymers are shown to be viable and appropriate alternatives to OPC for both the oil, gas and geothermal well construction as well as the civil infrastructure industry. An added benefit of geopolymers is that the base material is a waste material, with no further release of CO2 in manufacturing. Thus, there is the opportunity to utilize a new material for cementation purposes that outperforms OPC while decreasing environmental impacts
