Comprehensive and technically detailed approach to addressing environmental and energy challenges through the advance of adsorption theory and techniques
Supercritical Adsorption for Cleaner Energy and the Environment delves into the novel theory of supercritical adsorption and its practical applications in energy and environmental management issues. The book addresses critical topics such as supercritical adsorption and sustainable energy solutions, provides a deep understanding of advanced theories and techniques of supercritical adsorption, and addresses innovative methods for fuel desulfurization, natural gas storage, hydrogen energy, and emission-free coal power generation in the energy industry.
The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a comprehensive theory of supercritical adsorption, illustrated with examples that showcase significant progress in both applied and theoretical research due to recent advancements. Building on this theoretical foundation, the second part demonstrates how supercritical adsorption theory can address research questions in the fields of energy and environmental science.
Supercritical Adsorption for Cleaner Energy and the Environment includes information on:
- Solutions for theoretical problems of supercritical adsorption, such as determination of absolute adsorption and the volume or density of the adsorbed phase
- Adsorptive technology to enhance natural gas storage, and methane enrichment from low-quality gas
- Ideas, chemical reactions, and materials and adsorbents used in supercritical adsorption research with the potential to transform approaches in environmental challenges
- Efficient and feasible strategies for achieving carbon circulation within the energy consumption and generation cycle
Supercritical Adsorption for Cleaner Energy and the Environment is an essential forward-thinking reference for practitioners and researchers in the fields of chemistry, chemical engineering, energy, and environmental science.
