Element Transfer Reaction Theory: Foundations and Applications in Industrial Synthesis introduces a framework for modern chemical manufacturing. Bridging molecular reaction theory with the complex realities of industrial practice, the book pioneers the Element Transfer Reaction (ETR) approach that is anchored on the interplay between Element Source, Driving Force, and Output. Through compelling case studies, including lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF?) production and by-product valorization, the book demonstrates how ETR enables more sustainable, efficient, and resilient process design. Structured for clarity and depth, this resource covers the emergence of ETR theory in chemical synthesis and foundational pillars, including Element Source, Driving Force, and Output.Users will find this to be a rigorous methodology and resource for evaluating synthetic reactions using practical, industry-relevant metrics, and key insights for future innovation in industrial chemistry. This is an essential resource for chemical engineers, industrial chemists, process designers, and sustainability researchers seeking to advance resource efficiency, supply chain stability, and sustainable manufacturing in their fields.Explains the ETR framework, enabling systematic evaluation of element circulation, resource efficiency, and industrial ecologyShowcases industrial case studies that illustrate how ETR solves practical pain points like waste reduction and supply chain riskQuantifies sustainability with practical metrics to measure and optimize process performance beyond lab-scale efficiency

This book examines China and Australia’s economic and security relations against the background of China’s increasing economic and political role. Utilizing the theory of complex interdependence, the authors consider whether greater interdependence between Beijing and Canberra augments closer economic cooperation and trade or prompts political leverage and a security challenge. Exploring China-Australia relations from the mainstream Chinese perspective this book will be of interest to scholars and students of international relations, Chinese studies, global political economy, governmental and intergovernmental organizations.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the International Conference on Cognitive Computing, ICCC 2020, held as part of SCF 2020 in Honolulu, HI, USA, in September 2020.The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 8 full and 2 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 20 submissions. The papers cover all aspects of Sensing Intelligence (SIJ as a Service (SlaaS). Cognitive Computing is a sensing-driven computing (SDC) scheme that explores and integrates intelligence from all types of senses in various scenarios and solution contexts.

The rise of China is one of the most important events in international relations, which has altered, and will most likely continue to change the global geoeconomic and geo-political landscape. The book examines China’s “Belt and Road” initiative (BRI) in the Pacific Island countries as well as their partnerships in the context of China’s rise and China-America geopolitical competition. The book argues that the BRI in the South Pacific region is not merely an economic initiative, but one with a combination of economic, political and strategic objectives and consequences. The BRI in the region is, first and foremost, aimed to sustain China’s economic growth by gaining entry to the region’s resources and particularly the region’s marine resources, and by enhancing economic and infrastructural collaboration with its partners in the region. Sustained economic growth has long been identified by Deng Xiaoping as the basis underpinning China’s “overall” (“hard” and “soft”) power and China’s rise. The BRI is secondly aimed to intensify China’s partnership with the Pacific Island Countries (PICs) by changing the geoeconomic and geopolitical landscape through the implementation of BRI. China wishes to display to its partners in the region that its peaceful rise shall not be misconstrued as a threat, but an opportunity for economic prosperity both for China and for its economic partners across the world. The book concludes that China is increasingly able to reap economic and geopolitical interest in the South Pacific by intensifying “connectivity” and “exchanges of people” between China and the PICs through the BRI.

This book is a comprehensive overview, covering fundamentals, applications, and development of nuclear technology as well as the history, principles, policy, and practice of nuclear safety. It begins with the background and significance of the subject and conducts in-depth discussion into these sub-topics through nine chapters.The dissemination of nuclear knowledge and the assurance of nuclear safety rely on highly qualified personnel in nuclear facilities and well-designed education. This book is useful for a broad audience, including practitioners in nuclear-related industries such as nuclear construction, agriculture, and medicine, as well as researchers, engineers, and operators familiar with nuclear technology. Additionally, it can serve as a textbook for college students and professionals, a reference for operational and managerial staff at nuclear facilities, and a resource for engineers and technicians in other related fields.

This book argues that China’s quest for a strategic partnership with Russia reveals the country’s desire to create a geopolitical environment in favour of their country’s re-emergence as a great power at the systemic (global) level. The partnership with its “no-limit” is expected to help China counterbalance its perceived US containment and reshape the US-dominated world order. By intensifying Sino-Russian economic and energy cooperation and trade in the framework of the partnership, China attempts to gain entry to Russia’s markets and particularly its energy resources to sustain its economic growth that is viewed by Deng Xiaoping as the basis underlying China’s “hard” power, and particularly its military capabilities. By intensifying their military collaboration, China seeks to gain entry to Russia’s military weaponry and technology for the modernization of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) and work together with Russia to contain their perceived US unilateralism, hegemonism and interventionism. The Chinese foreign policy elites increasingly view US unilateralism and hegemonism as detrimental to China’s “core interests” (e.g., its territorial integrity and national rejuvenation). This sheds light on why the Chinese foreign policy elites conceive the China-Russia partnership as ‘vital’ for China’s peaceful development (commonly known as peaceful rise overseas) and the ‘ballast stone for global peace and strategic stability’. This book will be of interest to sinologists and scholars of China's foreign policy.
