Natural resources are under huge pressure due to human population growth and societal change. As a result, rational use of resources and efficient reduction of pollutants have become critical. Chemistry occupies a key position in improving efficiency and reducing pollution. Efficient and environmentally-friendly chemical processes to exploit resources are in demand. Resource Chemistry defines the concepts and principles of resource chemistry and highlights significant advances. The book introduces recent achievements in natural and non-natural resources utilization through chemical science and technology. First, the title describes resource distribution and defines resource chemistry and related chemical methods for resource utilization. It then describes the four main natural resources available for use: energy, minerals, water, and plants. The book considers re-utilization of non-natural resources, such as chemical by-products. Finally, the book considers some future developments and challenges awaiting resource chemistry. The title provides comprehensive coverage of current resource chemistry, as well as mapping the frontiers of this important field.
