Description:
Carbon-Based Metal Free Catalysts: Preparation, Structural and Morphological Property and Application covers the different aspects of carbon-based metal free catalysts, including the fabrication of catalysts from natural sources and carbon allotropes, their manufacturing and design, characterization techniques, and applications. Special features in the book include illustrations and tables which summarize up-to-date information on research carried out on manufacturing, design, characterization and applications of metal free catalysts. This book assembles the information and knowledge on metal free catalysts and emphasizes the concept of green technology in the field of manufacturing and design.
It is an ideal reference source for lecturers, students, researchers and industrialists working in the field of new catalyst development, especially polymer composites and is a valuable reference book handbook for teaching, learning, and research.
Brief description: Dr. Showkat Ahmad Bhawani is presently working as an Associate Professor at the Department of chemistry, Faculty of Resource Science and Technology, UNIMAS Malaysia. In addition to this, he has a teaching experience of two years from King Abdul Aziz University- North Jeddah and a post-doctoral experience of Three years from the Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia. He has received his M Sc. in Analytical Chemistry and Ph D. in Applied Analytical Chemistry from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India. He is working on the synthesis of molecular Imprinting polymers for the removal/extraction of dyes, fungicides, and various natural products from environmental and biological samples. In addition to this, he is also working on the development of new test methods and determining standard conditions for analysis (Separation, Isolation, and Determination) of various analytes from environmental and biological samples. He is involved in the analysis of samples like Surfactants, Amino acids, Drugs, Vitamins, Sugars, and Metal ions. He has published 1 book and 8 book chapters and he has published more than 30 papers in various journals. He is a life member of the Asian polymer association and editorial board member of several journals.
