Volatile Organic Compound Removal: Technologies and Functional Materials for VOC Removal details technologies and materials for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from polluted air, covering not only the fundamental mechanisms, processes, and designs of the latest VOC abatement technologies, but also the characteristics and applications of advanced functional materials for VOC removal. The first half of this book centers on VOC abatement technologies including catalytic degradation, thermal oxidation, membrane separation, adsorption, absorption, and condensation, whereas the second half focuses on the applications of functional materials, especially novel nanomaterials, in VOC removal.Volatile Organic Compound Removal: Technologies and Functional Materials for VOC Removal is unique in covering both the fundamental mechanisms and practical applications of VOC abatement technologies, as well as focusing on the preparation, characterization, and application of novel functional materials for VOC removal.- Details both the technologies and the functional materials possible for use in destructive and non-destructive removal of VOCs- Covers both sustainability-related issues and nanotechnology applications for VOC removal- Includes detailed case studies in appropriate chapters
