Produktbeschreibung
Understand hydrogen as an energy resource and its potential as a dynamic solution for a carbon-neutral economy Hydrogen is an energy carrier that can be used to store, move, and deliver energy produced from other sources. It has the potential for high energy efficiency, significant environmental and social benefits, and economic competitiveness. Understanding how hydrogen energy can be produced and provide electricity, carbon free alternative fuels, and storage is crucial. Hydrogen Energy: Principles and Applications provides the information needed by energy resource planners, scientists, engineers, and government officials to make informed energy-related decisions. Divided into three parts, the book opens with an introduction to energy issues, resources, policies for hydrogen, fuel cells and thermodynamic considerations. The second part addresses the practical aspects of hydrogen energy including government programs and safety as well as production processes, utilization, conversion to alternative fuels, transportation and storage. The third part details environmental interactions, ethics, economics and future prospects for development of the hydrogen economy. Covering the fundamentals of hydrogen energy with a thorough and accessible approach, this book: * Equips readers with a well-rounded working knowledge of hydrogen energy * Covers the latest technological advances, economic considerations, and the role hydrogen plays in a renewable energy economy * Offers a pragmatic, real-world perspective rather than focusing on theoretical issues * Contains nearly 50 illustrative examples ranging from elementary thermodynamic calculations to optimization applications using linear programming Hydrogen Energy: Principles and Applications is a must-read for those in energy-related fields, particularly environmental engineering students and professionals, energy leaders and policymakers.

Autorenporträt
Vincent J. DelGatto, M.Eng. PE, is recent Chair of the IEEE NY Power and Energy and Industrial Applications Societies and co-author of the IEEE-USA Energy Policy Committee "National Energy Policy Recommendations." His experience spans over 40 years in the electric power industry and academia. His work at Con Edison and GE focused on high voltage electromagnetic fields, cost analysis and safety of shared transmission right of way for electric and gas pipelines. He currently consults on the Levelized Full System Costs of Electricity. Louis Theodore, Eng.Sc.D., is a retired Professor of Chemical Engineering, having taught for 50 years at Manhattan College. He is the author of several publications, including Fluid Flow for the Practicing Chemical Engineer, Thermodynamics for the Practicing Engineer, Mass Transfer Operations for the Practicing Engineer, Air Pollution Control Equipment Calculations, and Pollution Prevention. R. Ryan Dupont, Ph.D., is Cazier Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Utah State University and Research Associate at the Utah Water Research Laboratory. He is a Life Member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, and the author of many research publications and books, including Groundwater and Soil Remediation: Process Design and Cost Estimating of Proven Technologies, Water Resource Management Issues: Basic Principles and Applications, and Unit Operations in Environmental Engineering. Matthew C. Ogwu, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in the Goodnight Family Sustainable Development Department at Appalachian State University. He is an interdisciplinary academic with transdisciplinary skills and diverse convergence research interests pertinent to the assessment of coupled human and natural as well as socio-ecological systems and has numerous awards, research grants, and scholarships to his name. Dr. Ogwu serves on the board of and as a reviewer for many peer-reviewed journals. He continues to volunteer his time and skills to promote sustainable development.
