SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This book introduces principles and concepts of membrane technology and explores the use of it in clean energy applications. Topics include: utilization of membrane technology in production of clean and renewable powers; membranes for biofuel production and processing; membranes for syngas, hydrogen and oxygen production and processing; steam reforming of biofuels for the production of hydrogen-rich gas membrane reactors; environmental analysis of hydrogen-methane blends for transportation; membranes for fuel cells including ceramic membranes for intermediate (SOFC), microbial fuel cells, and direct bioethanol fuel cells; membranes integrated with solar, wind energy and water-related applications including membrane technologies for solar-hydrogen production, solar-desalination plants, and the storage as methane of energy generated by wind power and other renewable sources; wastewater processing, energy conservation and energy generation. --
