Modular Systems for Energy and Fuel Recovery and Conversion surveys the benefits of the modular approach in the front end of the energy industry. The book also outlines strategies for managing modular approaches for fossil, renewable, and nuclear energy resource recovery and conversion with the help of successful industrial examples. The book points out that while the modular approach is most applicable for distributed and small-scale energy systems, it is also often used for parts of large-scale centralized systems.

With the help of successful industrial examples of modular approaches for energy and fuel recovery and conversion, the book points out the need for more balance between large-scale centralized systems and small-scale distributed systems to serve the energy needs of rural and isolated communities. Coal, oil, natural gas, hydrogen, biomass, waste, nuclear, geothermal solar, wind, and hydro energy are examined, showing that modular operations are very successfully used in all these components of the energy industry.

Aimed at academic researchers and industry professionals, this book provides successful examples and analysis of the modular operation for energy and fuel recovery and conversion. It is also a reference for those who are engaged in the development of modular systems for energy and fuel recovery and conversion.

Industry Reviews

"The main argument of the book is that modular systems are more flexible, easier to build and operate, and eventually more cost-effective than other types. The 10 chapters include detailed discussion and examples from coal, oil, natural gas, hydrogen, and biomass and waste industries, as well as case histories from wind, solar, and hydro energy systems, nuclear reactors, and also geothermal energy recovery and conversion operations. Each chapter cites tens of references to facilitate follow-up for interested readers. The introduction (and selected sections of other parts of the book) are good reads for a general audience with an interest in energy systems, but most of the book will best serve as a reference. This is a recommended acquisition for any library serving patrons with an interest in energy."
