Commercial development of energy from renewables and nuclear is
critical to long-term industry and environmental goals. However, it
will take time for them to economically compete with existing
fossil fuel energy resources and their infrastructures. Gas fuels
play an important role during and beyond this transition away from
fossil fuel dominance to a balanced approach to fossil, nuclear,
and renewable energies. Chemical Energy from Natural and Synthetic
Gas illustrates this point by examining the many roles of natural
and synthetic gas in the energy and fuel industry, addressing it as
both a "transition" and "end game" fuel. The book describes various
types of gaseous fuels and how are they are recovered, purified,
and converted to liquid fuels and electricity generation and used
for other static and mobile applications. It emphasizes methane,
syngas, and hydrogen as fuels, although other volatile hydrocarbons
are considered. It also covers storage and transportation
infrastructure for natural gas and hydrogen and methods and
processes for cleaning and reforming synthetic gas. The book also
deals applications, such as the use of natural gas in power
production in power plants, engines, turbines, and vehicle needs.
Presents a unified and collective look at gas in the energy and
fuel industry, addressing it as both a "transition" and "end game"
fuel. Emphasizes methane, syngas, and hydrogen as fuels. Covers gas
storage and transport infrastructure. Discusses thermal
gasification, gas reforming, processing, purification and
upgrading. Describes biogas and bio-hydrogen production. Deals with
the use of natural gas in power production in power plants,
engines, turbines, and vehicle needs.
