Industrial and Process Furnaces: Principles, Design and Operation
Industrial and Process Furnaces: Principles, Design and Operation, Third Edition continues to provide comprehensive coverage on all aspects of furnace operation and design, including topics essential for process engineers and operators to better understand furnaces. New to this edition are sections on production, handling and utilization of alternative fuels such as biomass, hydrogen and various wastes, modeling of the process, combustion and heat transfer, their benefits, advantages and limitations, mitigation and removal of CO2 , the role of solar and other renewable energy, recent research, and the practical approach of the Whyalla steelworks for harnessing solar energy for sustainable steelmaking, hydrogen and as a "clean fuel". The book also includes a discussion on the limitations of hydrogen supply owing to fresh water supply constraints, the difficulty of storing and transporting hydrogen, and the current sociopolitical impetus of CO2. - Covers the manufacture and utilization of hydrogen as a clean fuel - Includes process modeling and expands on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), with a special focus on flames and burners, costs, efficiencies and future trends - Expands on future trends, including sociopolitical impacts on CO2 emissions and control
