      Comprehensive Methanol Science: Production, Applications, and Emerging Technologies, Four Volume Set covers different aspects of the methanol industry including its production from fossil fuels, CO2, and renewable sources to its applications as a clean-burning fuel and fuel additive, an energy carrier, and a chemical intermediate. Methanol is a key building block in the production of various chemicals and is regarded as one of the most promising potential energy sources. It can be used not only as a fuel and fuel additive in combustion-based vehicles, but it also is a promising energy carrier in fuel cells and can be synthesized from several feedstock, including natural gases, coal, oven gas, biomass, and CO2. Best of all, when methanol is produced from waste or captured CO2, it is a net carbon-neutral fuel and can aid in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fighting climate change.This all-encompassing reference will provide readers with detailed insights into the production and applications of methanol. Economic assessment and environmental opportunities and challenges will be covered. Comprehensive Methanol Science: Production, Applications, and Emerging Technologies serves as an excellent resource for students and professors in chemical engineering, methanol engineers and researchers, and energy sector research and development companies.
