Book Description
This book explores effective environmental impact mitigation for petroleum-based lubricants to reduce their negative persistence during usage and upon end-of-life disposal. The book reviews the basic tribology of lubricants as well as initiatives that may enhance the environmental and economic effectiveness of lubricating oils from the composition design perspective across industries. Considering the blending, application, and disposal of petroleum lubricants in a holistic manner, the book presents and extends current best practices that minimize or eliminate adverse environmental impact throughout the product’s life cycle. The book reviews methods including: raw material substitution, minimizing oil losses during and after manufacturing, raw material and energy consumption reduction, and environmentally friendly applications of oil disposal as ways forward for cleaner and more effective production. This book provides readers with strategies for incorporating cleaner production practices into their operations – a benefit to both environmental legal compliance and business competitiveness – all the while preserving the environment for sustainable development. The book is therefore of interest to both manufacturers and consumers in the lubricants industry.

Book Description
High Oleic Oils: Development, Properties and Uses is the first complete reference to address practical applications for this new and dynamic category of fats and oils that are essentially replacing partially hydrogenated oils in various food and nonfood uses. As a category, high oleic oils are highly stable, but like other fats and oils, there are differences in the composition and applications of the various types of high oleic oils. Their compositions allow for the production of a range of frying oils, increased shelf-life foods, functional shortenings and hard fats, and even industrial products not easily produced with nonhigh oleic oils. Information and know-how on these applications and advantages has been in high demand and short supply until now.Based on extensive commercial experience, seminars and presentations, Editor Frank Flider has identified common customer questions, needs and concerns about high oleic oils, and addresses them in this single comprehensive volume outlining development, composition, and utilization of high oleic oils. Through the individual expertise of a highly qualified team of contributing authors, this book outlines the development, composition, and utilization of these oils, making it of value to a wide range of readers, including the research and development industry and academic researchers. Details the development and technology behind today’s high oleic crops and oils as well as the history and background of many naturally occurring oleic oils Describes high oleic oils’ nutritional and compositional advantages over PHOs and lower oleic oils Presents unbiased, noncommercial, science-based, and objective insights, deliberately balanced to represent high oleic oil varieties equally Addresses transgenic insights as well as new state-of-the-art and future development technologies
