Description

The world faces significant challenges as the population and human consumption continue to grow while nonrenewable fossil fuels and other raw materials are depleted at ever-increasing rates. This informative volume provides a technical approach to address these issues using green design and analysis. It takes an interdisciplinary look at concepts that can be applied across engineering disciplines in the development of products, processes, and systems to minimize environmental impacts across all life cycle phases. Topics include polymers for pollutant removal, wood-based biopolymers, bio-based polymers for drug formulations, biomaterial-based medical implants, biodegradabilty of biopolymer materials, bio-based polymers for food packaging applications, biodegradable polymers for tissue engineering applications, and more. Key features of the book: Presents updated information in the field of biodegradable biopolymers Provides an up-to-date summary of the varying market applications of biopolymers characterized by biodegradability and sustainability Includes case studies that illustrate the sustainable development process from a materials perspective Applications of Biodegradable and Bio-Based Polymers for Human Health and a Cleaner Environment is a valuable resource for academic and industrial researchers who are interested in new materials, renewable resources, sustainability, and polymerization technology. It will also prove useful for advanced students interested in the development of bio-based products and materials, green and sustainable chemistry, polymer chemistry, and materials science.

books.

Sweden's friendliest and environmental friendliest bookshop with the lowest priced textbooks.

This is our ambition, and we do what it takes to get there. We are here to help students to save and earn money on their textbooks while we at the same time save the environment. We were started in 2005 by two students and have since strived to constantly make it easier to buy and sell used textbooks for as many as possible.
