Hydrogen Its Technology And Implications

Volume I of this series discusses such topics as hydrogen production from fossil fuels, nuclear energy, and solar energy. Hydrogen production technology from water by traditional methods such as water electrolysis and newer attempts to split water thermochemically are included with details of current research efforts and future directions.This series in 5 volumes represents a serious attempt at providing information on all aspects of hydrogen at the postgraduate and professional level. It discusses recent developments in the science and technology of hydrogen production; hydrogen transmission and storage; hydrogen utilization; and the social, legal, political environmental, and economic implications of hydrogen‘s adoption as an energy medium.

"Volume V of this series is primarily concerned with the nontechnical aspects of hydrogen. Economics of hydrogen energy systems will play a major part in determining the time frame for hydrogen?s adoption. Cost analyses of such systems with return on investment considerations are surveyed from the point of view of production, transmission, and storage of hydrogen. The environmental, political, social, and legal implications of new secondary energy forms such as hydrogen are discussed with reference to governmental energy policy, the social costs of energy production and use, and the public?s acceptance of a hydrogen energy medium.This series in 5 volumes represents a serious attempt at providing information on all aspects of hydrogen at the postgraduate and professional level.

Volume II of this series provides detailed design information on systems necessary for the storage, transfer, and transmission of gaseous and liquid hydrogen.Cost factors, technical aspects, and models of hydrogen pipeline systems are included together with a discussion of materials for hydrogen service. Metallic hydride gaseous storage systems for the utility and transportation industry are covered in detail, and the design Dewars and liquid hydrogen transfer systems are examined.This series in 5 volumes represents a serious attempt at providing information on all aspects of hydrogen at the postgraduate and professional level.

Volume IV of this series covers the present and future uses of hydrogen. Hydrogen has been suggested as a prime candidate for both air and surface transportation. Both present and future domestic and industrial applications of hydrogen are surveyed. Important to all of these applications are the safety considerations in the use of hydrogen to allow for public acceptance of hydrogen‘s role as an energy medium.This series in 5 volumes represents a serious attempt at providing information on all aspects of hydrogen at the postgraduate and professional level.
