The Department of Chemistry at the Faculty of Science recently achieved a pioneering scientific achievement in the field of scientific research where John Wiley, the largest specialized publishing house in the world, published a book by Dr. Nuria Al-Awadi, Professor at the Department, entitled "Gas-Phase Pyrolytic Reactions Synthesis, Mechanisms, and Kinetics". The book preparation process is based on an invitation the Professor received from the John Wiley Publishing Foundation in light of her extensive scientific experience in this field.
The book is in almost 300 pages distributed over 7 chapters that clearly and systematically cover everything related to the field of pyrolysis reactions in terms of their use in preparing many chemicals with biological applications in an effective way that distinguishes them from traditional and customary methods of preparation.
As well as the mechanism and mechanics of these interactions, and Prof. Nuria's experience helped in addressing the gaps that have emerged in this important field in chemistry and the book is considered a solid reference for beginners and researchers specialized in this field.
Gas-Phase Pyrolytic Reactions: Synthesis, Mechanisms and Kinetics
by
Prof. Nouria Al-Awadi
(Published by John Wiley & Sons Inc.)
Gas-phase pyrolysis is a special synthetic method that is usually clean, convenient, and cost-effective, and has many advantages over other conventional synthetic strategies. The area of Gas-phase pyrolysis covers a vast area encompassing design, synthesis, characterization, kinetic investigations, mechanisms, optimizations, processing etc. The book Titled "Gas-Phase Pyrolytic Reactions: Synthesis, Mechanisms and Kinetics" by Prof. Nouria Al-Awadi is a comprehensive account of Gas-phase pyrolytic reactions. It covers all aspects related to the field - techniques, reactions & products, mechanisms and applications, which are all well researched and properly organized. The book covers almost all major developments in this topic since the last four decades with adequate narrations and proper references.
This book divided into seven chapters for convenience:
The vast experience in Gas-phase pyrolysis has helped the author to address all significant breakthroughs in this field. This book will be a highly valuable reference text for beginners in this area as well as for advanced researchers.
