Conventional coal, oil and gas resources used worldwide for power
production and transportation are limited and unsustainable.
Research and development into clean, alternative hydrocarbon fuels
is therefore aimed at improving fuel security through exploring new
feedstock conversion techniques, improving production efficiency
and reducing environmental impacts. Advances in clean hydrocarbon
fuel processing provides a comprehensive and systematic reference
on the range of alternative conversion processes and technologies.
Following introductory overviews of the feedstocks, environmental
issues and life cycle assessment for alternative hydrocarbon fuel
processing, sections go on to review solid, liquid and gaseous fuel
conversion. Solid fuel coverage includes reviews of liquefaction,
gasification, pyrolysis and biomass catalysis. Liquid fuel coverage
includes reviews of sulfur removal, partial oxidation and
hydroconversion. Gaseous fuel coverage includes reviews of
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, methanol and dimethyl ether production,
water-gas shift technology and natural gas hydrate conversion. The
final section examines environmental degradation issues in fuel
processing plants as well as automation, advanced process control
and process modelling techniques for plant optimisation Written by
an international team of expert contributors, Advances in clean
hydrocarbon fuel processing provides a valuable reference for fuel
processing engineers, industrial petrochemists and energy
professionals, as well as for researchers and academics in this
field.
