Principles of gasification -- Coal gasification technologies -- Biogasification -- Pyrolysis -- Gas cleanup technologies -- Integration of gasification technologies. "In contrast to traditional combustion, gasification technologies offer the potential for converting carbonatious material including low or negative-value feedstocks, such as petroleum coke, and various waste materials into usable energy sources or chemical feedstocks. With a growing number of companies operating and marketing systems based on gasification concepts worldwide, this book combines the latest information and real-world experience in developing coal and biomass gasification technologies." "Gasification Technologies: A Primer for Engineers and Scientists discusses gasification techniques and the benefits of each technology, including gas clean-up technologies and those used in hybrid systems and fuel cells. It also accounts for the primary products that are recovered and explains how these products are purified and can be used as fuel or for applications in petrochemical processes. The book describes the conditions in which optimal value intermediate products can be recovered, focusing on key factors such as oxygen and air blown reactors, operating temperature, internal and external heating, and reactor design. The authors also establish how gasification can help meet renewable energy targets, address concerns about global warming, and contribute to achieving Kyoto Protocol commitments." "Gasification Technologies provides a multidimensional and well-rounded examination of current technology, research, applications, and development challenges for the large-scale commercialization of this increasingly popular technology."--Jacket. |
