"Gasification is one of the most important advancements that has ever occurred in
energy production. Using this technology, for example, coal can be gasified into a
product that has roughly half the carbon footprint of coal. On a large scale, gasification
could be considered a revolutionary development, not only prolonging the life of carbon-based
fuels, but making them "greener" and cleaner. As long as much of the world still depends
on fossil fuels, gasification will be an environmentally friendlier choice for energy
production. But gasification is not just used for fossil fuels. Waste products that
would normally be dumped into landfills or otherwise disposed of can be converted
into energy through the process of gasification. The same is true of biofeedstocks
and other types of feedstocks, thus making another argument for the widespread use
of gasification. The Handbook of Gasification Technology covers all aspects of the
gasification, in a "one-stop shop," from the basic science of gasification and why
it is needed to the energy sources, processes, chemicals, materials, and machinery
used in the technology. Whether a veteran engineer or scientist using it as a reference
or a professor using it as a textbook, this outstanding new volume is a must-have
for any library"
