Summary
"Examining modular approaches for recovery and conversion of energy and fuel, this book illustrates the importance of offering a balance of centralized and distributed energy operations made up of small- and large-scale systems. Coal, oil, natural gas, hydrogen, biomass, waste, nuclear, geothermal solar, wind, and hydroenergy are examined.The book surveys the benefits of the modular approach, where each type of energy system can be most meaningfully applied in the broad-based energy industry, and describes strategies for managing modular systems. It also outlines successful examples of modular approaches implemented across industries and by energy/fuel type"--
