Description
Focusing on today's major fuel resources – ethanol, biodiesel, wood, natural gas, petroleum products and coal – this book discusses the formation, composition and properties of the fuels, and the ways in which they are processed for commercial use. The book examines the origin of fuels through natural processes such as photosynthesis and the geological transformation of ancient plant material; the relationships between their composition, molecular structures, and physical properties; and the various processes by which they are converted or refined into the fuel products appearing on today's market. Fundamental chemical aspects such as catalysis and the behaviour of reactive intermediates are presented, and global warming and anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are also discussed. The book is suitable for graduate students in energy engineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering and chemistry, as well as professional scientists and engineers.

Ok. So, first off, let me say I have never reviewed a textbook online because most of them are not very good. That being said, this is by far the most useful and easiest to understand book that I have ever used in a class setting. Everything is explained very well and uses real life situations and issues to explain the material. Even someone who does not have a strong science background could understand much of the information in this book. Love the notes at the end of the chapters also that highlight some cool facts. Makes learning much more interesting and fun. On a kind of side note, I was actually watching Jeopardy they asked a question that I read the day before at the end of the page (I got it right.) I just thought that was funny.I honestly wish every college engineering and science book was written in this, or similar, manner. Highly recommended for anyone , especially engineering and chemistry students. Great book and I learned a lot. Thanks!
