Chemistry through the food–energy–water nexus

Edited by Satinder Ahuja, this volume frames food, energy, and water as interconnected concerns for scientific research and development. It addresses the challenge of bringing environmental stewardship into conversation with economically viable product development, using the food–energy–water nexus as its organizing concept. The book presents background intended to clarify how these systems relate and why that relationship matters particularly within chemistry, while extending the discussion to the sciences more broadly.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Chemists examining environmental considerations in research and development
  • Students and professionals interested in the food–energy–water nexus
  • Scientists working across sustainability and resource-related fields

Book overview

How will chemists of the future balance competing concerns of environmental stewardship and innovative, cost-effective product development? For chemists to accept the idea that environmental quality and economic prosperity can be intertwined, the concept of the food-energy-water nexus must first be integrated into underlying thought processes. Food, Energy and Water: The Chemistry Connection provides today's scientists with the background information necessary to fully understand the inextricable link between food, energy and water and how this conceptual framework should form the basis for all contemporary research and development in chemistry in particular, and the sciences in general.
