Synopsis

Energy and Fuel Systems Integration

explains how growing energy and fuel demands, paired with the need for environmental preservation, require different sources of energy and fuel to cooperate and integrate with each other rather than simply compete. Providing numerous examples of energy and fuel systems integration success stories, this book:

• Discusses the use of different mixtures of fuels for combustion, gasification, liquefaction, pyrolysis, and anaerobic digestion processes



• Describes the use of hybrid nuclear and renewable energy systems for power and heat cogenerations with nonelectrical applications



• Details the holistic integration of renewable, nuclear, and fossil energy systems by gas, heat, and smart electrical grids

Energy and Fuel Systems Integration emphasizes the many advantages of these integrated systems, including sustainability, flexibility for optimization and scale-up, and more efficient use of storage, transportation, and delivery infrastructures.
