Process intensification practices seek to optimise capital, energy, environmental and safety benefits by a radical reduction in the physical size of a chemical plant. It is a hot topic for both the industrial and academic world. Since global energy demands are set to increase alongside the population growth and development of Asian countries, it is critical that the world seeks to develop better, cheaper and more environmentally friendly processes for energy conversion. As described in the book, introducing process intensification clearly has many advantages.
This book uniquely covers the application of process intensification strategies to sustainable energy. It includes chapters on
• Chemical looping combustion
• Concepts for CO2 capture
• Oxyfuel and oxygen permeable membranes
• Blue energy
• Solar energy
• Bioenergy
Process Intensification for Sustainable Energy Conversion is suitable for academic researchers and students in both PI and energy conversion fields. It is also a valuable reference for practicing engineers and researchers in industry.
