Gas Engineering

More about the book

This 3rd volume of 'Gas Engineering' explores liquefied natural gas and gas-to-liquids concepts, reviewing gas stream uses and their environmental impacts. It details properties of gas streams related to corrosion effects, including carburization and metal dusting, as well as corrosion in steel and other materials used in refinery technology. The text summarizes key findings on corrosion processes in gas-processing equipment and offshore structures. Each chapter includes references from open literature and meeting proceedings, providing insight into the current state of gas processing technology and highlighting emerging technologies. A comprehensive glossary is also included. Written in an accessible style, this volume serves as a one-stop guide to the engineering aspects of natural gas properties and processing, addressing their effects on ecosystems and pollutant mitigation. The book offers an overview with considerable detail on various natural gas technology aspects, using elementary chemistry only to clarify specific points.
