Applications of Hydrogen Peroxide and Derivatives: (RSC Clean Technology Monographs) (Rsc Clean Technology Monographs)

Simple, But Beautifully Versatile. Perhaps Not A Description Many Would Choose For Hydrogen Peroxide, But An Accurate One None The Less, And This Unique Book Explains The Reasons Behind The Description. Beginning With An Historical Overview, And Guidelines For The Safe Handling Of Peroxygens, Applications Of Hydrogen Peroxide And Derivatives Goes On To Cover Key Activation Mechanisms, Organic Functional Group Oxidations And The Use Of Hydrogen Peroxide With Heterogeneous Catalysts. The Clean-up Of Environmental Pollutants; Chemical Purification; And Extraction Of Metals From Their Ores Are Also Discussed In Detail, Using Actual Examples From Industry. The Versatility Of This Reagent May Well Prove To Be A Key To Integrated Pollution Control In The Future. This Book Should Therefore Be Read By Academics And Industrialists At All Levels, To Encourage Wider Applications Of The Use Of Hydrogen Peroxide In Laboratories.

Perhaps not a description many would choose for hydrogen peroxide, but an accurate one none the less, and this unique book explains the reasons behind the description. Beginning with an historical overview, and guidelines for the safe handling of peroxygens, Applications of Hydrogen Peroxide and Derivatives goes on to cover key activation mechanisms, organic functional group oxidations and the use of hydrogen peroxide with heterogeneous catalysts. The clean-up of environmental pollutants; chemical purification; and extraction of metals from their ores are also discussed in detail, using actual examples from industry. The versatility of this reagent may well prove to be a key to integrated pollution control in the future. This book should therefore be read by academics and industrialists at all levels, to encourage wider applications of the use of hydrogen peroxide in laboratories Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) has been introduced as a modern alternative to current sample preparation technology, and has a wide range of applications. Focusing on quantitative aspects of analysis, Applications of Solid Phase Microextraction aims to describe these applications. In industry, practical uses of SPME can be found in environmental, food, pharmaceutical, clinical and forensic applications, all of which are described in this book. Important scientific applications such as reaction monitoring, characterization of coatings and distributions of analytes in natural multiphase systems are also discussed. Throughout there are descriptions of new technologies, including new coatings and interfaces for analytical instrumentation (SPME/LC and SPME/CE), automation and calibration processes. Written by internationally recognised experts, edited by the scientist involved in the research since its infancy, and encompassing a wide range of applications, this book will be ideal for anyone wishing to explore the feasibility of using SPME technology Annotation "Simple, but beautifully versatile".
