ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SOURCES AND TECHNOLOGIES GEB...

Presenting a comprehensive analysis of the use of alternative sources of energy and
technologies to produce fuels and power  this book describes the energy value chain from
harvesting the raw material  (i.e solar  wind  biomass or shale gas) followed by analysis of
the processing steps into power  fuels and or chemicals and finally the distribution of the
products.Featuring an examination of the techno-economic processes and integration
opportunities which can add value to by-products or promote the use of different sources of
energy within the same facility  this book looks at the tools that can make this integration
possible as well as utilising a real world case study. The case study of the operation of El
hierro island is used as an example of the current effort towards more efficient use of the
resources available. Tackling head on the open challenges of the supply  the variability of the
source and its prediction  the description of novel processes that are being developed and
evaluated for their transformation as well as how we can distribute them to the consumer and
how we can integrate the new chemicals  fuels and power within the current system and
infrastructure  the book takes a process based perspective with such an approach able to help
us in the use and integration of these sources of energy and novel technologies.
