Description

Photothermal Materials and Membranes for Solar-Driven Water Treatment provides comprehensive understanding of the chemistry of different photothermal materials, mechanistic pathways for light-to-heat energy conversion, design and development of various 3D evaporation systems configurations, and photothermal membranes for water treatment. The book contributes to the understanding of photothermal materials to system design for efficient solar-to-heat conversion and solar-steam generation and paves the way forward to meet increasing freshwater demand though sustainable and environmentally friendly approach. In addition, it introduces in-depth different emerging concepts of steam-generation, gives the basics of solar light and solar light adsorbing materials’ function, efficiency and applications, discusses the preparation of photothermal materials and membranes, analyses the key characteristic properties of photothermal materials, elaborates on water evaporation using nature spired system design, and highlights the key commercialization approaches and technologies.

Author Biography:

Dr. Jaydevsinh M. Gohil, is currently employed as a Scientist in the Advanced Research School for Technology and Product Simulation of the Central Institute of Petrochemicals Engineering and Technology (CIPET), India. Prior to this appointment, he had served as a Pool Scientist at the Laboratory for Advanced Research in Polymeric Materials, CIPET, Bhubaneswar (Oct. 2015 - Nov. 2016) and as an Assistant Professor at Sardar Patel University, Anand, India (Aug.-Oct. 2015); and also worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Western Ontario, Canada (2011-2014) and at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai, India (2009-2011), sponsored by the Ontario Centers for Excellence/the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council /the BioGenerator Energy Solution Inc., Canada, and IIT Bombay/DOW Chemicals Co., respectively. He has been awarded a B.Sc. degree in Applied Chemistry in 2000 and a M.Sc. degree in Plastics Technology in 2002 by Sardar Patel University; and subsequently in 2008, received a Ph.D. degree in Chemistry from Bhavnagar University, while working as a Senior Research Fellow (at CSIR-CSMCRI, during 2006-2008) awarded by the CSIR, Govt. of India. His research interest includes materials development for membranes used in water treatment, molecular separation and energy conversion devices. As of now he co-authored 32 research/review publications and 04 book chapters in reputed international platforms, and edited/co-edited three books, one book published by Elsevier, and two books published by the American Chemical Society. Dr. Kingshuk Dutta, FICS, is currently employed as a Scientist in the Advanced Polymer Design and Development Research Laboratory of the Central Institute of Petrochemicals Engineering and Technology, India. Prior to this appointment, he had worked as an Indo-U.S. Postdoctoral Fellow at the Cornell University, U.S.A. (2018-19) and as a National Postdoctoral Fellow at the Indian Institute of Technology – Kharagpur, India (2016-17), both funded by the Science and Engineering Research Board, Govt. of India. Earlier, as a Senior Research Fellow funded by the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, Govt. of India., he had carried out his doctoral study at the University of Calcutta, India (2013-16). He possesses degrees in both technology (B. Tech. and M. Tech.) and science (B. Sc.), all from University of Calcutta. He was also a recipient of the prestigious Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) and National Scholarship, both from the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Govt. of India. His research interest lies in the fields of electrochemical, photoelectrochemical and bioelectrochemical devices, wastewater treatment, as well as polymer blends/composites and biodegradable polymers. Until date, he has contributed to 62 experimental and review papers in reputed international platforms, 35 book chapters, 1 patent application, and many national and international presentations. In addition, he has edited/co-edited four books published by Elsevier, two books published by the American Chemical Society, and one book published by Wiley. He is currently serving as a Review Editor for Frontiers in Nanotechnology and Frontiers in Fuels, and has also served as a guest associate handling editor for Frontiers in Chemistry and a peer-reviewer for over 190 journal articles, conference papers, book chapters and research project proposals. He is a life member and an elected fellow of the Indian Chemical Society, a life member of the International Exchange Alumni Network (U.S. Department of State) and a member of the Science Advisory Board (U.S.A.). Earlier, he had held memberships of the International Association for Hydrogen Energy (U.S.A.), the International Association of Advanced Materials (Sweden), the Institute for Engineering Research and Publication (India) and the Wiley Advisors Group (U.S.A.).
