Discover the many new and emerging applications of supercritical
water as a green solvent
Discover the many new and emerging applications of supercritical
water as a green solvent
Drawing from thousands of original research articles, this book
reviews and summarizes what is currently known about the
properties and uses of supercritical water. In particular, it
focuses on new and emerging applications of supercritical water
as a green solvent, including the catalytic conversion of biomass
into fuels and the oxidation of hazardous materials.

Supercritical Water begins with an introduction that
defines supercritical fluids in general. It then defines
supercritical water in particular, using the saturation curve to
illustrate its relationship to regular water. Following this
introduction, the book:

Throughout the book, the author uses tables for at-a-glance
reviews of key information. Summaries at the end of each chapter
reinforce core principles, and references to original research
and reviews serve as a gateway and guide to the extensive
literature in the field.
