Add to basketReduce environmental impacts across petroleum production, refining, and fuel use
Liquid fuel demand is projected to increase by more than 20% over the next three decades, yet petroleum remains the prime source of manmade carbon and methane greenhouse emissions. Cleaner Petroleum Production and Refining Technologies addresses this tension directly, detailing methods to produce and refine crude oils and gas into quality fuels while minimizing environmental impacts throughout the entire production-to-consumption chain.
This edited volume includes authoritative discussions of carbon capture and storage, fugitive methane emissions reduction, and technologies to reduce energy intensity and green house gas emissions for heavy oil production and oil sands operations. It examines refinery reconfiguration to convert carbon residuals into middle distillates and light olefins for petrochemical feed, gas-to-liquid processes including Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, and the use of renewable feedstock in hydrogen production.
Key topics include:
Cleaner Petroleum Production and Refining Technologies serves engineers, scientists, and managers in the petroleum production and refining industries, as well as researchers at government organizations and research centers. University faculty and students working in petroleum production and processing will also find this volume a substantive technical reference.
