A much-needed, up-to-date guide on conventional and alternative power generation'
This book goes beyond the traditional methods of power generation. It introduces the
many recent innovations on the production of electricity and the way they play a major
role in combating global warming and improving the efficiency of generation. It contains
a strong analytical approach to underpin the theory of power plants'for those using
conventional fuels, as well as those using renewable fuels'and looks at the problems
from a unique environmental engineering perspective. The book also includes numerous
worked examples and case studies to demonstrate the working principles of these systems.
Conventional and Alternative Power Generation: Thermodynamics, Mitigation and Sustainability
is divided into 8 chapters that comprehensively cover: thermodynamic systems; vapor
power cycles, gas power cycles, combustion; control of particulates; carbon capture
and storage; air pollution dispersal; and renewable energy and power plants.-Features
an abundance of worked examples and tutorials -Examines the problems of generating
power from an environmental engineering perspective -Includes all of the latest information,
technology, theories, and principles on power generation Conventional and Alternative
Power Generation: Thermodynamics, Mitigation and Sustainability is an ideal text for
courses on mechanical, chemical, and electrical engineering
