Description
This book is a comprehensive guide to the chemistry, process chemistry, technology, engineering, and economics of methane conversion. It covers methane's availability and increasing importance as an environmentally acceptable natural resource alternative and feedstock, as well as derivative production by synthesis gas and methane conversion routes. It discusses methanol and ammonia synthesis, synthetic gasoline, and oxygenate fuels technologies, and presents data on critical, supercritical, and transport properties, chemical reactions and equilibria, and solubility. It introduces recent gas engineering techniques, from NOx and SOx removal, and membrane gas separation, to multiphase transport phenomena and cryogenic processes surveys. The book also highlights current trends of petrochemical industries.
This self-contained reference covers the chemistry, process chemistry, technology, engineering, and economics of methane conversion, including its environmental impact and commercial exploitation.
