This book discusses all aspects of advanced engine technologies, and describes the role of alternative fuels and solution-based modeling studies in meeting the increasingly higher standards of the automotive industry.
This book discusses different types of alternative fuels, including biodiesel, alcohol, synthetic fuels, compressed natural gas (CNG) and its blend with hydrogen, HCNG, and provides detailed information on the utilization of these alternative fuels in internal combustion (IC) engines.
This book focuses on various aspects related to air pollution, including major sources of air pollution, measurement techniques, modeling studies and solution approaches to control.
This book provides extensive information on high-temperature H2S removal for integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) coarse gas, together with briefly introductions to the concept of clean coal technology, and to the mechanism and kinetics of hot coal gas desulfurizers.
This book discusses latest advances in the area of bioenergy, including algal biomass, biodiesel, bioethanol, biomethanation, pyrolysis, biomass gasification, biomass cook stoves and integrated processes.
This book presents the proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Integrated Petroleum Engineering and Geosciences 2016 (ICIPEG 2016), held under the banner of World Engineering, Science & Technology Congress (ESTCON 2016) at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre from August 15 to 17, 2016.
This book describes the scale and complexity of China's energy system, using Sankey diagrams to visualize the energy flows across the economy and categorizing the differences between provinces.
Las normas que en este texto se citan y los fallos a los que se hace referencia han sido decantados a través de los años, y han permitido que el país perciba ingresos para beneficio de muchos colombianos.
This book presents a revised and modern vision of cyclic steam stimulation (CSS) processes to the industry and academic community linked to hydrocarbon production, particularly to the technical community related to heavy oil thermal recovery processes.
Some 35 years ago I was somewhat precariously balanced in a drilling derrick aligning a whipstock into a directional hole in North Holland by the Stokenbury method, and no doubt thinking to myself that I was at the very forefront of technology.
This book presents the fundamental principles of drilling en- gineering, with the primary objective of making a good well using data that can be properly evaluated through geology, reservoir engineering, and management.
Practical reservoir engineering techniques have been adequately described in various publications and textbooks, and virtually all useful techniques are suit- able for implementation on a digital computer.
This book analyses the deep interaction between the world's environmental crises, energy production, conversion and use, and global regulation policies.
Extensive descriptions of a wide range of key or world-class mineral deposits of China are presented in the context of the country's general geology, tectonic units and mineral systems and their geodynamic evolution within the tectonic framework of the Asian continent.
Small island developing states in the Pacific are urgently seeking to address the challenges of climate change, energy security, and energy access by generating more renewable energy and reducing their reliance on imported fossil fuels.
This publication updates the 2015 carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) road map for the People's Republic of China (PRC) developed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in consultation with the government of the PRC and other stakeholders.
El mundo tiende a liberarse de la dependencia de los recursos no renovables y para ello incrementa la eficiencia y rentabilidad de las energías "limpias".
Hoy en día la industria petrolera se enfrenta a grandes desafíos, y por ello requiere de personal altamente cualificado que esté dotado de un conocimiento profundo y una clara comprensión de los principios que gobiernan el movimiento de los fluidos, desde la formación hasta la cabeza del pozo.
The National Clean Energy Fund (NCEF), announced in the Government of India's Budget 2010-11, is seen as a major step in India's quest for energy security and reducing the carbon intensity of energy.
Una discusión acerca de las gasolinas y los carburantes en general, de los que existen hoy en día y de aquellos que en el futuro tendrán un papel preponderante.
While oil price fluctuations in the past can be explained by pure supply factors, this book argues that it is monetary policy that plays a significant role in setting global oil prices.
Advances and Technology Development in Greenhouse Gases: Emission, Capture and Conversion is a comprehensive seven-volume set of books that discusses the composition and properties of greenhouse gases, and introduces different sources of greenhouse gases emission and the relation between greenhouse gases and global warming.
