Sustainable Polygeneration with Carbon Capture and Utilisation

An original and up-to-date discussion of a promising sustainable energy technology
In Sustainable Polygeneration with Carbon Capture and Utilisation, a team of distinguished researchers delivers an up-to-date and authoritative discussion of the technologies used in the conversion of solid fuels, especially combustion, gasification, pyrolysis, and hydrothermal processes. The book explores the links between conversion processes, CO2 capture, and utilization. It also discusses the numerical simulation of polygeneration plants based on one-dimensional process simulation models—steady-state and dynamic—as well as three-dimensional CFD models.
Organised into four sections, the book begins with descriptions of conversion processes for fossil and renewable solid fuels. It moves on to explore CO2 capture and utilisation processes for emission sources. It also discusses sustainable polygeneration plants before finishing with an examination of the mathematical models used for polygeneration plant simulations.
Readers will also find: - A thorough introduction to the essentials of CO2 capture and utilisation, fuel conversion, and renewable energy
- Comprehensive explorations of sustainability and polygeneration
- Practical discussions of the numerical simulation of polygeneration
- Insightful treatments of possible future research directions in sustainable polygeneration

Perfect for chemical engineers, process engineers, and industrial chemists, Sustainable Polygeneration with Carbon Capture and Utilisation will also benefit environmental chemists.
