Provides a complete treatment on two of the hottest topics in the
energy sector - acid gas injection and carbon dioxide sequestration
This book provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of two
techniques that are rapidly increasing in importance and usage in the
natural gas and petroleum industry -- acid gas injection and carbon
dioxide sequestration. The author, a well-known and respected authority
on both processes, presents the theory of the technology, then discusses
practical applications the engineer working in the field can implement.
Both hot-button issues in the industry, these processes will help
companies in the energy industry "go green," by creating a safer,
cleaner environment. These techniques also create a more efficient and
profitable process in the plant, cutting waste and making operations
more streamlined.
This outstanding new reference includes:
-
Uses of acid gas injection, the method of choice for disposing of
small quantities of acid gas
-
Coverage of technologies for working towards a zero-emission process
in natural gas production
-
A practical discussion of carbon dioxide sequestration, an emerging
new topic, often described as one of the possible solutions for
reversing global warming
-
Problems and solutions for students at the graduate level and industry
