Description for Carbon Capture
Hardcover. This book on the fundamental aspects of carbon capture covers a plethora of issues such as thermodynamics, kinetics, mass transfer, and material properties, and features Policy maker-friendly summaries at the end of each chapter as well as practice problems. Num Pages: 348 pages, biography. BIC Classification: RNP; TDC; TGMB; THF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 242 x 161 x 15. Weight in Grams: 648.
This book approaches the energy science sub-field carbon capture with an interdisciplinary discussion based upon fundamental chemical concepts ranging from thermodynamics, combustion, kinetics, mass transfer, material properties, and the relationship between the chemistry and process of carbon capture technologies. Energy science itself is a broad field that spans many disciplines -- policy, mathematics, physical chemistry, chemical engineering, geology, materials science and mineralogy -- and the author has selected the material, as well as end-of-chapter problems and policy discussions, that provide the necessary tools to interested students.
