Aerogels for Energy Saving and Storage

About this book

Explore the energy storage applications of a wide variety of aerogels made from different materials

In Aerogels for Energy Saving and Storage, an expert team of researchers delivers a one-stop resource covering the state-of-the-art in aerogels for energy applications. The book covers their morphology, properties, and processability and serves as a valuable resource for researchers and professionals working in materials science and environmentally friendly energy and power technology.

The authors offer a comprehensive review of highly efficient energy applications of aerogels that bridges the gap between engineering, science, and chemistry and advances the field of materials development. They provide a Life Cycle Assessment of aerogels in energy systems, as well as discussions of their impact on the environment. Aerogel synthesis, characterization, fabrication, morphology, properties, energy-related applications, and simulations are all explored, and likely future research directions are provided.

Readers will also find:

  • A thorough introduction to aerogels in energy, including state-of-the-art advancements and challenges newly encountered
  • Comprehensive explorations of chitin-based and cellulose-derived aerogels, as well as lignin-, clay-, and carbon nanotube-based aerogels
  • Practical discussions of organic, natural, and inorganic aerogels, with further analyses of the lifecycle of aerogels
  • In-depth examinations of the theory, modeling, and simulation of aerogels

Perfect for chemical and environmental engineers, Aerogels for Energy Saving and Storage will also earn a place in the libraries of chemistry and materials science researchers in academia and industry.
