This book comprises interdisciplinary topics including consolidating research activities in all experimental and theoretical aspects of natural advanced materials in the fields of science, engineering, and medicine including structure, synthesis, processing, physico-chemical properties, and applications.

The book covers formulation for natural and organic cosmetics, CO2 sequestration, drug delivery systems, biosensors, and other related topics. In addition, case studies including some data are presented that demonstrate the growing interest and cost benefits of biomaterials.

The main features of the book are:

  • It discusses the properties and applications of materials from natural sources from an environmental and biomedical engineering perspective.
  • It explores properties of natural materials used in drug delivery, biofuel, adsorbents, waste water treatment, cosmetics, and so forth.
  • It includes studies on recent and emerging biomaterials.
  • It details applications of natural materials in varied areas.
  • It introduces the structure and mechanisms of self-healing material, biomaterial, biofuel, polymers, and adsorbents.
  • This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in chemical, environmental, and natural resource engineering.
