One may ask: "what's special in chars? They are cheap, abundant, unsophisticated and ..... dirty. Why bother to study them and their applications? They will always work efficiently provided that enough quantity is applied". How much truth is in this statement and how much common misunderstanding? Does adding the "buzz" word of the last decade and converting the old "chars" into "nanocarbons" change anything?

In 1996, international researchers gathered for several days at the Spring meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS) to discuss the latest advances in the ?eld of metal, metalloid, and radionuclide adsorption to soils, sediments, and rocks (geomedia). This symposium resulted in the publication of an outstanding peer-reviewed volume ‘‘Adsorption of Metals by Geomedia: Variables, Mechanisms, and Model Applications’’

Air quality regulatory policies limit the emissions of primary pollutants such as pa rticulate matter, oxides of sulphur and nitrogen and volat ile hydrocarbons. However, these primary pollutants in general are of local conce rn, whereas secondary pollutants formed in the atmosphere such as ozone, ?ne and nano-particle aerosol s includi ng excess nitro gen loading in the environment and acidic deposition are of regional, continental and even global scale concern. These concerns are also inherently coupled with the issue of global climate change.

This volume of Applied Process Design is intended to be a chemical engineering process design manual of methods and proven fundamentals with supplemental mechanical and related data and charts (some in the expanded appen- dix). It will assist the engineer in examining and analyzing a problem and finding a design method and mechanical specifications to secure the proper mechanical hardware to accomplish a particular process objective. An expanded chapter on safety requirements for chemical plants and equipment design and application stresses the applicable codes, design methods, and the sources of important new data.

Editor : John A. Thomas and Laurie A. Myer

The first edition of Biotechnology and Safety Assessment, edited by John A. Thomas and Laurie A. Myer was published in 1993 with its major emphasis on emerging molecular biology techniques used in the production of recombinant DNA-derived drug as well as describing early protocols designed to unsure their pre-clinical safety and efficacy. Advances in transgenic animal models and safety evaluation approaches to generally modified (GM) foods were also described.
