The technology for the chemical conversion of carbon dioxide has made remarkable progress at a pace that can be described as "a step forward every second," and researchers and engineers engaged in research and development targeting carbon dioxide should always keep up with the latest information. I hope this book will serve as a helpful resource for such individuals. Furthermore, for those who are still unable to take action despite being pressed to implement measures such as reducing carbon dioxide, I strongly encourage you to refer to this book in order to determine the direction you should aim for.

Without the utilization of energy storage technologies, including batteries, it is impossible to expand the use of renewable energy or to implement measures against large-scale disasters or individual energy supply interruptions. Therefore, active research and development, as well as demonstration of energy storage devices and the system technologies to effectively utilize them, are being conducted. This book explains the characteristics and demonstration effects of energy storage devices and systems in Chapters 1 and 2, while Chapters 3 and beyond discuss individual technologies, demonstration trends, future expectations, and the challenges derived from them, articulated in the words of the researchers and demonstrators themselves. It is structured in a way that clearly shows which technologies can be utilized and targeted in various applications and fields. This book is recommended not only for those involved in research and technology related to energy storage and energy storage device/system development and users but also for those engaged in business planning.

While there are books discussing IoT technology from the perspectives of communication, software, services, or big data, there are very few comprehensive works that summarize the key components of hardware and electronic devices and materials that underpin it. On the other hand, it is expected that by 2030, over one trillion nodes will be connected through IoT and utilized for new services, making IoT an attractive prospect as a massive hardware market. In light of this situation, this book summarizes the relationship between IoT and device and material technologies. This book dedicates a significant portion to sensor networks, emphasizing that it is not just about data in virtual spaces, but that interfacing with the physical world is becoming increasingly important. However, it also covers the larger overall picture. It is hoped that Japan, known for its high-reliability and high-performance hardware and material technologies, will contribute to supplying the hardware technologies that support IoT and help build a better world.

This book focuses on membrane separation, a new process technology that is useful for solving global environmental issues and developing new energy sources. It summarizes the trends in the development and application of polymer membranes, the development and application trends of new membrane materials that have rapidly advanced in the 21st century, such as zeolites, silica, and carbon membranes, which are porous inorganic membranes. It also discusses the application of these membranes in carbon dioxide separation, hydrogen separation, and various chemical processes, fuel cells, and bioprocesses, in order to envision the direction we are heading. For the practical application of membranes, it is essential to establish various technological elements, starting from the research of membrane materials, followed by membrane fabrication technology, modularization technology, and the construction of separation systems. This book introduces numerous real-world examples, and it is expected to provide many insights. In the future, membrane separation is anticipated to increase in importance as a technology for sustainable development of the Earth, attracting many researchers. I am confident that this book will also serve as a valuable text for researchers who are about to embark on research and development.
