This book deals with analytical techniques and methods applied in several sectors of technology and industry and serves as a concise and up-to-date reference for the practical application of analytical chemistry. Divided into 10 chapters, the book starts with an introduction to the fundamentals of analytical chemistry, followed by a review of modern analytical technologies and their application in different industrial sectors and activities such as agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, ores and mining, polymers, biotechnology, and oil & gas. Particular attention is given to industrial environmental issues, where the author discusses the advanced analytical techniques used to provide quantitative information about pollutants in aqueous and gaseous effluents and their carbon footprint. The book finishes with a chapter summarizing the main remarks and conclusions on advanced analytical techniques used in different industrial sectors, as well as on topics of sustainability, and instrumental analysis.
In this book, readers will find valuable insights, including real-life examples, of how classical and instrumental techniques can be used by industry, to help professionals in the quality control of raw materials, products and processes, in the assessment of the formulation contamination, environmental pollution and in the evaluation of sustainability, among others.
"The book offers a practical guide to the use of analytical chemistry in various industries to provide strategic knowledge about the composition and concentration of man-made and naturally occurring materials. ... the book succeeds in serving as a valuable resource for anyone involved in the development, production, and quality control of industrial products and processes." (Ulrich Panne, Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, Vol. 417 (2), 2025)
Sílvio Vaz Jr. holds a D.Sc. degree in Analytical Chemistry from the University of São Paulo, Brazil, with equivalent doctorate degrees attributed from the University of Coimbra, Portugal, and from the University of Granada, Spain. Having previously served as Director and Partner at two private environmental analysis laboratories, he is currently a Senior Scientist at the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa), where his work focuses on the development of renewable molecules (e.g., eco-friendly agrochemicals), environmental chemistry (e.g., CO2 capture and use), agricultural chemistry, and the application of analytical chemistry to biomass and bioenergy, as well as green and sustainable chemistry. He has previously published with Springer Nature the books "Analytical Techniques and Methods for Biomass" (2016), "Biomass and Green Chemistry: Building a Renewable Pathway" (2018), "Analytical Chemistry Applied to Emerging Pollutants" (2018), "Sustainable Agrochemistry - A Compendium of Technologies" (2019) and "Treatment of Agroindustrial Biomass Residues" (2020). He was appointed as the Chairman of the Brazilian Division of the American Chemical Society (03/2018-03/2019). Moreover, he serves as Professor of the graduate program in biofuel at the Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
