Hopefully, the papers included here will provide the readers with the current state-of-the-art and future research trends in the field of elemental analysis in the oil industry. Most modern techniques used in the field are represented here.

In this paper we discuss relationships between languages, models and tools for synthesis-driven design-methodology. We will also discuss essential issues derived from those relationships and some possible solutions. We will also paint with a broad brush, an ideal system for high-level synthesis and propose solutions for some essential issues. Finally, we will discuss future research trends driven by this evolutionary extension of synthesis to higher abstraction levels. 

This sub-chapter is focused on Mt/PE CPN. Therefore, the main objectives are to describe this nanoadditive, to give a general overview of the most widely known techniques used for the modification of the montmoril-lonite and to process the Mt/PE NCP and give a general view of the current application and the future ones, together with the future research trends. 

The historical development of aromatics production from petroleum is outlined, and the methods employed during World War II for the production of nitration grade toluene are described. Included is a discussion of methods of synthesizing and purifying benzene, xylenes, and aromatics of higher molecular weight both as mixtures and as pure compounds. Data are presented on the composition of the aromatic hydrocarbons available from typical hydroformates. Aromatics and mixtures thereof currently available from petroleum are listed. Some of the problems facing the industry in the field of aromatics production are discussed and the probable trend of future research is indicated. 

The contents of the current volume presents a sampling of more than 150 oral and poster papers delivered at the Symposium on Access in Nanoporous Materials II held in Banff, Alberta on May 25-28, 2000. The selected papers cover the three main themes of the symposium (i) synthesis of mesoporous silicas, framework-modified mesoporous silicas, and surface-modified mesoporous silicas, (ii) synthesis of other nanoporous and nanostructured materials, and (iii) characterization and applications of nanoporous materials. About 70% of the papers are devoted to the synthesis of siliceous mesoporous molecular sieves, their modification, characterization and applications, which represent the current research trend in nanoporous materials. The remaining contributions provide some indications on the future developments in the area of non-siliceous molecular sieves and related materials. Although the present book does not cover all topics in the area of nanoporous materials, it reflects the current trends and advances in this area, which will certainly attract the attention of materials chemists in the 21st Century. 

The Great Lakes have served as a focal point for PCB research. This research has provided an understanding of the processes controlling fate and transport of PCBs, and has led to the development of models than can be applied to other contaminants and water bodies. The processes of atmospheric deposition and net sediment accumulation are described adequately in these models, but the exchange at the sediment-water interface and seasonal depositional patterns need further improvements. While concentrations have declined in air, water and sediments over the last decade, trends in fish indicate a slowing or stopping of such a decline. Thus future research efforts should address the bioaccumulation process and foodweb dynamics, and the physical processes mentioned above. 

One of the major problems with why inhalants are so poorly understood is that little scientific focus has been aimed at understanding how inhalants affect the brain and behavior. Previous research on inhalants has focused more on organ toxicity caused by inhalants, the trends in inhalant use, and their anesthetic functions. Understanding inhalant abuse at the cellular and molecular level has been a neglected field. Since there have been a number of studies on the cellular basis for inhalant abuse in the past five years, this is hopefully an indication that future research will focus more on this area. 

In this book, we have made an effort to provide an overall view of the emerging trends in radiation chemistry authored by experts in the field. The introductory chapter covers the history of radiation chemistry, underlining its achievements and issues that need to be addressed in future research. By renewing its research directions and capabilities in recent years, radiation chemistry research is poised to thrive because of its critical importance to today s upcoming technologies. Detailed accounts of fast and ultrafast pulse radiolysis instrumentation development and recent advances on ultrafast...
