Sanjay K. Sharma is Professor of Chemistry, Department of Chemistry & Environmental Engineering at Jaipur Engineering College & Research Centre, JECRC Foundation, Jaipur (Rajasthan) India. He is a member of various international professional societies including American Chemical Society (USA), International Society for Environmental Information Sciences (ISEIS, Canada) and Green Chemistry Network (Royal Society of Chemistry, UK) and life member of Society of Analytical Scientists, Indian Council of Chemists, International Congress of Chemistry and Environment, Indian Chemical Society, etc. Dr. Sharma has 12 Books of Chemistry from National-International Publishers and over 48 research papers of National and International repute to his credit. His recently published books are 'Handbook on Applications of Ultrasound: Sonochemistry and Sustainability' ,'Green Chemistry for Environmental Sustainability'(both from CRC Taylor & Francis Group, LLC, Florida, Boca Raton, USA) and 'Handbook of Applied Biopolymer Technology: Synthesis, Degradation and Applications'(From Royal Society of Chemistry, UK). He has also been appointed as Series Editor by Springer's London for their prestigious book Series 'Green Chemistry for Sustainability'. His work in the field of Green Corrosion Inhibitors is very well recognized and praised by international research community.

With its unique focus on specifically addressing the problems for societies and economies associated with corrosion and their solution, this book provides an up-to-date overview of the progress in corrosion chemistry and engineering. International experts actively involved in research and development place particular emphasis on how to counter the economic and environmental consequences of corrosion with the help of science and technology, making this a valuable resource for researchers as well as decision makers in industry and politics. Further major parts of the book are devoted to corrosion prevention in the naval and energy sector as well as to corrosion monitoring and waste management.<br>
