McGraw-Hill Professional. 2008. 422p
Capitalize on the Vast Potential of Alteative Energy Sources Such as Fuel Cells and Biofuels

Synthetic Fuels Handbook is a comprehensive guide to the benefits and trade-offs of numerous alteative fuels, presenting expert analyses of the different properties, processes, and performance characteristics of each fuel. It discusses the concept systems and technology involved in the production of fuels on both industrial and individual scales.

Written by inteationally renowned fuels expert James G. Speight, this vital resource describes the production and properties of fuels from natural gas and natural gas hydrates…tar sand bitumen…coal…oil shale…synthesis gas…crops…wood sources…biomass…industrial and domestic waste…landfill gas.and much more. Using both U.S. and SI units, Synthetic Fuels Handbook features:

Information on conventional and nonconventional fuel sources
Discussion of the production of alteative fuels on both industrial and individual scales
Analyses of properties and uses of gaseous, liquid, and solid fuels from different sources
Comparison of properties of alteative fuels with petroleum-based fuels
