Gasification Technologies 'A Primer for Engineers and Scientists'

Gasification technologies offer the potential for converting coal and low or negative-value feedstocks, such as petroleum, coke, and various waste materials into a usable energy source. This monograph is a primer to coal and biomass gasification technologies. It provides an introduction and overview of current technology developments and an understanding of the challenges for commercialization of this technology. Chapters also discuss gasification techniques and the benefits of each technology, including gas clean-up technologies, and those used in hybrid systems and fuel cells. This volume helps place the technology, research, and development challenges into a broad perspective.
