Description

Power Valorization to Gas Chemicals: Exploring the Membrane Technology Role addresses the significant knowledge gap in the understanding of power-to-gas technologies, processes, and applications. The book offers solutions to the technical challenges and barriers that need to be overcome for widespread adoption, also providing an overview of conventional and emerging technologies in the field. In addition, it explores the current state of technology, discusses ongoing research, and proposes potential solutions to address technological challenges. Users will find existing policies, highlights of successful regulatory frameworks, and proposed policy recommendations to facilitate the growth of power-to-gas initiatives.

Economic considerations, including cost analyses, financial models, and potential revenue streams are also explored. Offering case studies and best practices for the integration of power-to-gas systems into energy grids, the book also addresses environmental considerations, exploring lifecycle assessments, carbon footprints, and sustainability aspects associated with power valorization to gas.

Key features

  • Analyzes emerging technologies for renewable energy conversion to gas production
  • Examines the integration of conventional and innovative procedures for efficiency improvement in power conversion to gas products
