About the Book

"Advances in Aerogel Composites for Environmental Remediation presents both contextual information about aerogels, from common to advanced aerogels, natural to synthetic, along with details about its application in environmental remediation. The book addresses common day-to-day environmental problems and solutions using natural and synthetic aerogel materials. It discusses fabrication of various aerogel composites and their design and applications towards different environmental remediation technologies and compares the properties and advantages of aerogels in contrast to traditional materials. Given the consistent increase in environmental pollution, the need to explore new materials and advances in remediation technology is becoming more urgent. This valuable resource brings researchers and practitioners in environmental remediation and environmental science and engineering to the forefront of remediation technologies with a thorough understanding of the benefits of and techniques used in relation to aerogel composites"--

Book Synopsis

Advances in Aerogel Composites for Environmental Remediation presents both contextual information about
aerogels and details about their application in environmental remediation. A wide variety of aerogels are discussed, ranging
from common to advanced and from natural to synthetic. By exploring ongoing research and developments in the environmental
remediation technologies using aerogel and its composites, this book addresses common day-to-day environmental problems
and presents solutions to the use of aerogel materials. The chapters discuss fabrication of various aerogel composites, along
with their design and applications toward different environmental remediation technologies. Additionally, the properties and
advantages of aerogels are compared and contrasted to those of traditional materials.

Given the consistent increase in environmental pollution, there is an urgent need to explore new materials for advances in remediation
technology. Advances in Aerogel Composites for Environmental Remediation brings researchers and practitioners
in the fields of environmental remediation, environmental science, and engineering to the forefront of remediation technologies
with a thorough breakdown of the benefits of and techniques relevant to aerogel composites.
