Plant Chemistry

Nanocellulose has emerged as one of the most promising sustainable nanomaterials of the twenty-first century due to its exceptional mechanical strength, biodegradability, renewability, and wide-ranging applications. Derived from abundant biomass and agricultural residues, nanocellulose presents innovative solutions to pressing global challenges, including resource depletion, environmental pollution, and the need for sustainable materials within a circular bioeconomy framework.Sustainable Utilization of Nanocellulose and its Derivatives provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the production, modification, and advanced applications of nanocellulose. The book explores sustainable extraction technologies from agricultural and agro-industrial residues such as wheat, rice, hemp straw, bamboo, and banana waste, highlighting resource recovery and waste valorization strategies. It further covers surface modification and characterization techniques, nanocellulose-based composites, hydrogels, films, and coatings, along with emerging applications in food packaging, environmental remediation, biomedical engineering, drug delivery systems, energy storage and photovoltaic devices. The volume also addresses current challenges and future opportunities related to the large-scale production and commercialization of nanocellulose. Bridging fundamental science and technological innovation, this book serves as an essential reference for researchers, graduate students, material scientists, environmental engineers, and industry professionals seeking sustainable solutions for a circular and bio-based future.

In Time to Tax the Robots, the author, George Randolph Dirth, takes on the arrival of the AI revolution, its impact on the American economy, our workforce and its implications for our tax revenue. He quickly concludes that due to our weakened fiscal status, our high level of demographic uncertainty and the potential for significant job dislocation, it is necessary to implement taxation of AI, now. His analysis suggests that the AI-era presents a period of inflection, from which we are likely to emerge with a high productivity-low tax revenue economy, which may struggle to fund basic government services, and further exacerbate our fiscal weakness. He explains how the Arc of the Production Function-depicting the evolution in contributions to output of labor, capital, technology and now AI-has significantly changed in the post WW2 era, while our taxation mechanism has increased taxes on the individual while their share of income has decreased. This grand divergence-between the recipients of income and their share of taxation-unlocks the understanding of not just how our public debt has ballooned, but also how income inequality--also known as our affordability crisis--has emerged as a socially destructive and divisive force.Finally, since we compete in a global marketplace, he offers an update on Chinese AI models' increasingly substantial gains in U.S. market share - much of it built on a specific alternativemodel architecture, originally published by American researchers in 2017.

How to update our legacy system of taxation for the era of AI, negative fertility, and a declining labor force

Time to Tax the Robots

An in-depth exploration of the network of agencies involved in policing child pornography—and what the future of security and care looks like. Facing the Child investigates the technocratic expertise in the policing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Mitali Thakor argues that CSAM has come to be framed as primarily a digital problem, to be resolved digitally, thereby unleashing a new form of corporatized policing helmed by global technology companies. Ambitious in scope, this multi-sited global ethnography draws on 4 years of original fieldwork and interviews with technology companies in the US, the United Nations in Bangkok, Thai and Dutch NGOs, and law enforcement in the US and the Netherlands. The book argues that in the 2010s, a network of technology companies, NGOs, and law enforcement created the notion of a “virtual child” in need of techno-solutionist saving to justify a vast expansion of surveillance technologies. The book examines how pervasive myths of child abuse online were exploited to serve the aims of seemingly disparate groups, from Christian neo-abolitionists to NGOs conducting virtual sting operations. It is this complex relationship between the care and securitization needed to fix the child victim as an object of data, concern, and rescue that the book explores.

Physical Chemistry at the Intersection of Combustion and Atmospheric Sciences provides the first detailed exploration of overlapping scientific problems in physical chemistry within the domains of combustion and atmospheric chemistry. Specific problems addressed in this book include detailing the current state of knowledge and future research needs on topics, such as the role of organic hydroperoxide reactivity in both atmospheric chemistry and combustion, the importance of peroxy radicals produced in biofuel and hydrocarbon combustion that control chain-branching, and in tropospheric chemistry, affect OH-budgeting and the formation of aerosols that impact air quality. Significant attention is also paid to the influence of functional groups on combustion reaction mechanisms as well as downstream effects on gas-phase chemical reactions in atmosphere. Specifically, problems connecting gas-phase reactions of functionalized organic molecules present in combustion emissions to secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation are addressed. In addition, remaining challenges in understanding the subsequent physical and chemical processes involving SOA will be addressed. It is written primarily for research staff scientists, R&amp;D personnel (laboratory and industry), graduate students, and professors in the fields of physical chemistry, atmospheric science, and chemical engineering.

PERSONAL KAIZEN

Run your solo business like a lean team of ten - using AI to handle the admin, marketing, and follow-ups eating your week.

You didn't start a solo business to spend half your week on inbox triage, half-written proposals, and content you never get around to posting. But somewhere between "just starting out" and "genuinely busy," the administrative layer of running a one-person business quietly takes over - and traditional advice only offers two options: stay capped, or hire and take on a whole new set of costs and headaches.

The Solo Operator's Edge lays out a third path: an "invisible team" of AI-powered workflows, each one built around a real business function - chief of staff, marketer, sales assistant, operations manager, bookkeeper, support rep, research analyst - so you can scale your output without scaling your overhead. This isn't about replacing your expertise or your client relationships. It's about clearing everything else out of the way so you can spend your time on the work only you can do.

What's Inside:
- The hire-or-automate framework for deciding what actually needs a person
- Seven ready-to-build AI "roles" covering every function of a one-person business
- A daily inbox-and-calendar system that ends the morning scramble for good
- Workflows for proposals, follow-ups, content calendars, SOPs, and client communication
- Clear, honest boundaries around bookkeeping - where AI helps and where a licensed pro is non-negotiable
- A 30-day rollout plan and a Weekly Reclaim Ritual to tie every role together
- An extensive prompt library, worked examples, and two full case studies
