Modular Systems for Energy and Fuel Recovery and Conversion: Sustainable Energy Strategies
Autor Yatish T. Shahen Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 iul 2019
With the help of successful industrial examples of modular approaches for energy and fuel recovery and conversion, the book points out the need for more balance between large-scale centralized systems and small-scale distributed systems to serve the energy needs of rural and isolated communities. Coal, oil, natural gas, hydrogen, biomass, waste, nuclear, geothermal solar, wind, and hydro energy are examined, showing that modular operations are very successfully used in all these components of the energy industry.
Aimed at academic researchers and industry professionals, this book provides successful examples and analysis of the modular operation for energy and fuel recovery and conversion. It is also a reference for those who are engaged in the development of modular systems for energy and fuel recovery and conversion.

Notă biografică
Yatish T. Shah received his B.Sc in chemical engineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA, and MS and Sc.D in chemical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA. He has more than 40 years of academic and industrial experience in energy-related areas. He was chairman of the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA; dean of the College of Engineering at the University of Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA, and Drexel University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; chief research officer at Clemson University, South Carolina, USA; and provost at Missouri University of Science and Technology, Rolla, USA, the University of Central Missouri, Warrensburg, USA, and Norfolk State University, Virginia, USA. He was also a visiting scholar at University of Cambridge, UK, and a visiting professor at the University of California, Berkley, USA, and Institut für Technische Chemie I der Universität Erlangen, Nürnberg, Germany. Dr. Shah has previously written eight books related to energy, five of which are under"Sustainable energy strategies" book series by Taylor and Francis of which he is the editor.The present book is another addition to this book series. He has also published more than 250 refereed reviews, book chapters, and research technical publications in the areas of energy, environment, and reaction engineering. He is an active consultant to numerous industries and government organizations in the energy areas.
Recenzii
"The main argument of the book is that modular systems are more flexible, easier to build and operate, and eventually more cost-effective than other types. The 10 chapters include detailed discussion and examples from coal, oil, natural gas, hydrogen, and biomass and waste industries, as well as case histories from wind, solar, and hydro energy systems, nuclear reactors, and also geothermal energy recovery and conversion operations. Each chapter cites tens of references to facilitate follow-up for interested readers. The introduction (and selected sections of other parts of the book) are good reads for a general audience with an interest in energy systems, but most of the book will best serve as a reference. This is a recommended acquisition for any library serving patrons with an interest in energy."

Descriere
Examining modular approaches for recovery and conversion of energy and fuel, this book illustrates the importance of offering a balance of centralized and distributed energy operations made up of small- and large-scale systems. Coal, oil, natural gas, hydrogen, biomass, waste, nuclear, geothermal solar, wind, and hydroenergy are examined.
