Hydrogen is one of the most promising next-generation fuels. It has the highest energy content per unit weight of any known fuel and in comparison to the other known natural gases it is environmentally safe - in fact, its combustion results only in water vapour and energy. This …
Hydrogen can be used for electricity generation, for transportation, as well as, mixed with natural gas, for heating, thus reducing the carbon emissions of all parts of the energy system. This book describes the current techniques for producing hydrogen and discusses the current…
The following topics are dealt with: hydrogen production; reforming process; catalysts; supercritical water gasification; biofuels; fixed bed membrane reactors; micromembrane reactors; perovskite membrane reactors; hydrogen separation; and carbon-based membranes.
Biotechnology is a fascinating interdisciplinary field uniquely poised to take on some of the world's most complex problems. This takes a refreshing problems-based approach to exploring the field. Novice readers will come away with a broad appreciation for the significance of cu…
