This book provides a comprehensive and contemporary overview of advances in energy and energy storage technologies. Although the coverage is varied and diverse, the book also addresses unifying patterns and trends in order to enrich readers’ understanding of energy and energy storage systems, particularly hydrogen energy storage, including e.g. their morphology, porosity and material structure. Readers will also gain insights into the hydrogen storage performance landscape, based on data released by the US Department of Energy (DOE), providing a basis for understanding real-world applications. The book also discusses the superior hydrogen storage performance of solid-state materials and explores the physical and chemical properties that can potentially affect their performance.
After the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov "for groundbreaking experiments regarding the two-dimensional material graphene," even more research and development efforts have been focused on two-dimensional nanostructures. Illustrating the importance of this area in future applications, Two-Dimensional Na
Metal Chalcogenide Biosensors: Fundamentals and Applications provides an overview of advances in materials development of chalcogenides for use in biosensing and sensing applications. The metal chalcogenides discussed include highly reactive metals, noble metals and transition metals. Particular attention is given to the morphology, porosity, structure and fabrication of materials for biosensing applications. The connection between the chalcogenides' physical and chemical properties and device performance is explored. Key parameters for biosensor devices are investigated such as thermodynamics, kinetics, selectivity, sensitivity, efficiency and durability to aid in materials selection. Finally, a range of biosensor devices are addressed including gas biosensors, chemical biosensors, environment biosensors and biological molecule sensors. This book is suitable for those in the fields of materials science and engineering, chemistry and physics. - Reviews the latest advances in fabrication methods for metal chalcogenide-based biosensors - Discusses the parameters of biosensor devices to aid in materials selection - Provides readers with a look at the chemical and physical properties of reactive metals, noble metals and transition metals chalcogenides and their connection to biosensor device performance

The book covers a broad range of topics required within urological treatment including basic science, imaging in endourology, the use of technological devices, therapeutics for endourology, the treatment of high risk patients, stone disease management, pelvic kidneys, and dialysis. Surgical Strategies in Endourology aims to give the reader guidance in treating patients with endourological conditions and is relevant to both practising and trainee urologists.
This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the process of hydrogen production by water splitting, including materials used, methods and instrumentation. It discusses hydrogen production methods with a focus on water splitting (laboratory/industrial scales) followed by its storage and perspectives. It describes all the methods of hydrogen production, i.e., water electrolysis, steam electrolysis, steam reforming, membrane electrolysis and water splitting. The effects of various radiations (ultraviolet, visible, gamma, X-ray and infrared) on hydrogen production are also included. Features: Presents a complete collection of hydrogen generation and discusses the water spitting process in detail. Explores the effects of the radiation of hydrogen generation. Discusses hydrogen generation and storage on a large scale. Presents a future perspective of hydrogen as fuel. Includes future challenges and perspectives to produce hydrogen economically on a large scale. This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in materials and chemical engineering, radiation science, physics, chemistry and materials science.
