This is the second volume of a two-volume set book, Electromagnetic Wave Innovations for Sustainability, which explores advancements in electromagnetic technologies like photocatalysis and microwave chemistry for sustainable energy production, recycling, and environmental remediation, within the framework of the SDGs and circular economy.The second volume focuses on applications of electromagnetic-wave–based technologies that address pressing environmental and energy challenges. It opens with a historical overview of microwave technologies for environmental protection and hybrid microwave–photocatalysis systems for wastewater treatment. The next section explore innovations in recycling technologies, including polymer degradation, plastic-to-monomer conversion, biomass–plastic co-recycling for hydrogen and carbon nanomaterials, and microwave-induced pyrolysis for metal recovery from e‑waste. Further chapters cover advancements in hydrogen production, solar cell development, and CO2 conversion, followed by microwave- and radiation-based water treatment and environmental remediation strategies. Together with the first volume, this volume provides an integrated perspective on how electromagnetic-wave technologies can accelerate progress toward a sustainable and circular society.

This is the first volume of a two-volume set book, Electromagnetic Wave Innovations for Sustainability, which explores advancements in electromagnetic technologies like photocatalysis and microwave chemistry for sustainable energy production, recycling, and environmental remediation, within the framework of sustainable development goals (SDGs) and the circular economy. It is followed by a second volume, Electromagnetic Wave Innovations for Sustainability II: Recycling and Environmental Remediation. The first volume introduces the fundamental principles that connect sustainability with electromagnetic-wave science. It begins by outlining the concepts of the circular economy, sustainable development, and green chemistry, followed by core theories of electromagnetic waves. Subsequent chapters highlight the role of photocatalysis in pollutant decomposition, wastewater purification, and the advancement of sustainable environmental technologies. The volume concludes with theoretical and industrial perspectives on microwave chemistry, including reactor simulations, extraction technologies, and the contributions of microwaves to sustainable chemical processes.

This book adds remarkable advances in microwave chemistry, methods, equipment, and practical examples since the first edition was published in 2018. Moreover, practical examples of the use of microwave energy have been upgraded. It also includes how to easily predict microwave heating using material constants. In addition, coupling analysis simulation with electromagnetic fields and heat transfer which greatly support researchers' experiments is covered.The principal aim of this book hasn’t changed: to introduce chemists through a tutorial approach to the use of microwaves by examining several experiments of microwave chemistry and materials processing. It subsequently enables chemists to fashion their own experiments in microwave chemistry or materials processing. This book helps chemists who take an interest in the use of microwave radiation to overcome difficulties to understand the nature of electromagnetism, microwave engineering, and thermodynamics.
