Green Gasoline
Transportation currently takes up around a third of overall energy usage, of which the majority is petroleum-based gasoline. Petroleum is both a finite resource and a big contributor to the carbon emissions that are causing climate change. To continue to benefit from transportation whilst mitigating climate change it is essential to find alternatives to petroleum-based gasoline. Although a lot of recent developments have focused on electrifying transport the infrastructure for large scale uptake of electric vehicles is still lacking and it may be less practical in some parts of the world than others. Biofuels, therefore, still have a role to play in improving the sustainability of our transp...
Uses and Products of Recycled Expanded Polystyrene Foam Wastes
This book addresses the various applications of recycled expanded polystyrene, a material used abundantly in the packaging of items ranging from domestic to industrial items. However, as useful as it is for consumers, it is a major source of environmental challenges due to waste disposal problems. Most are dumped in landfills and deface the environment; in some climes, they are burnt, releasing toxic fumes into the atmosphere. The resulting negative effects on the natural habitat include leaching into underground water and destroying nutrients needed for agricultural activities. Therefore, this book presents recent studies of innovative and sustainable ways to utilize this waste material whe...
Fuels and Energy
Human civilization has long relied on fire from biomass for energy. Burning, an oxidation reaction, liberates energy and continues until the material reaches its highest oxidation state. The evolution of energy sources, from forest fires to nuclear fuels, marks significant progress. Understanding fuel types and classifications is essential for students and educators. This book covers upstream and downstream processing of various fuels—biomass, petroleum, coal, natural gas, nuclear fuels, hydrogen, and fuel cells—along with combustion technology for energy extraction. It also addresses recent advances, emission concerns from energy industries, and stubble burning. The book explores how advanced formulations of coal, petroleum, and alternative fuels can be optimized for existing combustion systems, ensuring efficiency and compliance with EURO VI emission norms. This comprehensive guide aims to inform readers about fuel classification, energy production, and future research prospects.
