Alternative Fuels (Applied Energy Technology Series)
Product Description Environmentally acceptable alternative fuels are in demand. This book dicusses the energy resources that are directly tied to the alleviation of petroleum dependence, and the science and technology in the area of alternative fuels. Various process treatments leading to cleaner and better use of existing fuel resources are discussed. This comprehensive reference book is consistent and is helpful for students and researchers. Book Info Special emphasis is placed on various process treatments leading to cleaner and better use to existing fuel resources, as well as on energy resources that are directly tied to the alleviation of petroleum dependence. DLC: Synthetic fuels. Reader Reviews With all the talk, since 1973, of an "energy crisis", the World is drowning in energy sources and resources. This book is highly recommended by 'moi' or me, because in the 1920' and the 1930's, ersatz or synthetic oil, gasoline, and lubricants, were being developed in Germany. This means that there have been alternative fuels in use before World War Two, and this technology has been economically viable for more than sixty years. Is U.S. Energy Independence really possible? This book states that it's more than possible, more than probable, if not a "slam-dunk" if we utilize our Free Enterprise system, in this quest for Alternative Fuels. Professor Lee's book on Alternative Fuels is super-excellent, and you get your "money's-worth" in the process. Also, we MUST develop Cars, not just a few thousand hybrid vehicles per year. I would also read books by the late R. Buckmaster Fuller. This is where Dr. Lee's fine text is going. Alternative Fuels--YES----Alternative Transportation--also-YES. I back Dr. Lee's book--ALTERNATIVE FUELS. Read It. You just might learn a great deal. It offers many approaches that are a "MUST READ". From this, energy policies will be a "MUST DO". The technical reading are down to Earth. There are many examples of the future of World energy resources. So--BUY THE BOOK!! Dr. Nick Stage-PHD., from Indiana Comments (2) | | (Report this)
