Combustion Emissions: Formation, Reaction, and Removal of Trace Metals in Combustion Products de Keith Schofield

Combustion Emissions: Formation, Reaction, and Removal of Trace Metals in Combustion Products

Autor Keith Schofield
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 noi 2020
Combustion Emissions: Formation, Reaction, and Removal of Trace Metals in Combustion Products presents the latest scientific knowledge on combustion, with a particular focus on the behavior of elements in this high temperature method of energy generation. The book describes methods of control and establishes a solid base of understanding for future research. Encyclopedic in style and consistent in format, each chapter systematically presents a complete analysis of the combustion behavior of each element and guides the reader in resolving specific problems. This includes source levels in fuels and fuel usage, emission and pollutant release into the environment and environmental effects, and more.
Societal impacts and environmental concerns are considered throughout, highlighting sustainability aspects across a diverse range of applications, such as within power plants, automobiles and propulsion.


  • Presents the latest research in a very systematic way
  • Includes methods of control and establishes a base of understanding for future research in energy systems
  • Analyzes the individual behavior of 34 elements, considering their chemistry, nature and environmental impacts

Recenzii

"Understanding the mechanisms of emissions of trace metals from solid fuel combustion systems and its control is of immense importance in the design and operation of thermal power plants and equipment for process industries. The book under review by Keith Schofield provides a comprehensive overview of this subject." --Current Science
"In the first part, the commonalities of the behaviour of various trace metals in combustion systems are discussed. It is in these six chapters lie the greatest strength of the book. The first part of the book is ideally suited as a text/reference for graduate level courses dealing with combustion and emissions.
The rest of the book contains a detailed discussion of the behaviour of a large number of trace metals in combustion processes. This part of the book will be a valuable source of information on the known aspects, open questions and ongoing studies. An exhaustive list of references including studies as recent as 2019 is included, making this book a ready reference for students as well as practising engineers.
Overall, the book is a welcome addition to the combustion literature." --CURRENT SCIENCE, VOL. 120, NO. 3, 10 FEBRUARY 2021

Notă biografică

Professor Emeritus, University of California Santa Barbara
Dr. Keith Schofield is President/CEO of ChemData Research Corporation and Emeritus Research Professor at the Materials Research Laboratory, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA. He is currently developing and supplying the technology for a new, low cost method, to control mercury emissions from coal combustors. Before taking up this position in 2009, Dr. Schofield was a Research professor at the University of California studying the combustion chemistry of traces of mercury and other trace metals that exist in fuel emissions. He is the CEO of ChemData Research and is a member of The Combustion Institute. He received his PhD in Physical Chemistry, and studied for his BA, from Cambridge University, United Kingdom.
