Synopsis
''A grand compilation...Well-bound, well-printed....It is sure that this pioneering book will help growing interest of the separation scientists in aqueous biphasic systems and broaden the scope of the field.'' --- Indian Chemical Society, 1998
About the Author
Katrin Kneipp received her Diplom and Ph.D. degree in Physics and Dr.sc. in Physical Chemistry from Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, Germany. Her current research interests at Harvard Medical School include single molecule and nanoscale spectroscopies and their broad interdisciplinary
applications.
Ricardo F. Aroca, obtained his undergraduate degree in Chemistry from the University of Chile, PhD in Chemistry from Moscow State University. Presently he is University Professor at the University of Windsor.and fellow of the Chemical Institute of Canada. His research is in surface-enhanced
vibrational spectroscopy and its analytical applications. Nanostructure fabrication and characterization.
Harald Kneipp received his Diplom in Physics from Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, and a Ph.D. degree in Physics from the Academy of Sciences in Berlin. He conducted research in the fields of plasma physics, nonlinear optics, and laser physics and development. His current interests include
applications of lasers and optical spectroscopy at the frontiers of science and medicine.
After graduating with a BSc (Hons) from University College Dublin (NUI) Edeline Wentrup-Byrne obtained her PhD in organic chemistry from the University of Lausanne in Switzerland. Her research interests include the use of vibrational spectroscopy to study naturally occurring biomaterials, the
surface-modification of fluorinated bone-repair materials (ePTFE) and the development of degradable polymeric scaffolds for use in bone repair applications. In addition, she is working with a multi-disciplinary team and a Brisbane-based industry Tissue Therapies to develop a novel skin
wound-healingbandage therapy. Currently she is a member of the Tissue Repair and Regeneration Program in the QUT Institute for Health and Biomedical Innovation.
Prof. Joan F. Brennecke obtained her B.S. in Chemical Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin (1984) and both her M.S. (1987) and Ph.D. (1989) in Chemical Engineering at The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She is currently a Keating-Crawford Professor at Notre Dame and Director
of the Notre Dame Energy Center. Brennecke's research is primarily focused on experimental aspects of thermodynamics and separations, with particular interest in supercritical fluids and ionic liquids.
Dr. Robin D. Rogers obtained both his B.S. in Chemistry (1978, Summa Cum Laude) and his Ph.D. in Chemistry (1982) at The University of Alabama and is currently a Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Center for Green Manufacturing at UA. Rogers holds three patents and has published over 500
papers on a diverse array of topics including structural chemistry, green separation science and technology, room temperature ionic liquids, and aqueous biphasic separations.
Prof. Kenneth R. Seddon obtained both his BSc (1970, First Class) and his PhD (1973) in Chemistry at the University of Liverpool, and his MA at Oxford University (1974). He currently holds the Chair of Inorganic Chemistry, and is Director of the QUILL Centre, at The Queen's University of Belfast.
He is inventor on over 20 patents, has published over 220 papers, co-authored four books, and co-edited four books (including this one). Research interests include ionic liquids, green chemistry, crystal engineering, coordination chemistry, conservation of ancient Chinese documents, and chemical
weapons.
