Volatile Organic Compound Removal

Volatile Organic Compound Removal: Technologies and Functional Materials for VOC Removal details technologies and materials for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from polluted air, covering not only the fundamental mechanisms, processes, and designs of the latest VOC abatement technologies, but also the characteristics and applications of advanced functional materials for VOC removal. The first half of the book centers on VOC abatement technologies including adsorption, catalytic degradation, membrane separation, thermal oxidation, absorption, and condensation. The second half focuses on the applications of functional materials especially novel nanomaterials in VOC removal. This book is unique in covering both the fundamental mechanisms and practical applications of VOC abatement technologies and focuses on the preparation, characterization, and application of novel functional materials for VOC removal.

• Details both the technologies and the functional materials possible for use in VOC remediation
• Covers both sustainability-related issues and nanotechnology applications for VOC removal
• Includes detailed case studies in appropriate chapters
