275 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Electrochemical Pathways for Sustainable Energy and Resource Recovery explores the innovative intersection of electrochemistry, bioenergy, and resource recovery. The book reviews current electrochemical technologies and future trends in sustainable bioenergy and resource recovery, including biodegradable materials into usable forms of energy. It covers the basics of electrochemical principles, electrode materials, and cell configurations and focuses on hydrogen and other energy carriers such as syngas and ammonia. The book also introduces electrochemical CO2 reduction technologies and provides a cost analysis and lifecycle assessment of electrolysis-based bioenergy systems.It begins with fundamentals, covering principles, electrode materials, electrolytes, and cell configurations, and examines the integration of electrolysis with waste-to-energy processes. In addition, the book introduces electrochemical solutions for energy and resource recovery, highlighting the role of electrolysis in sustainable energy production and photoelectrochemical systems. A dedicated chapter on electrolytic hydrogen production, including design considerations and integration with renewable energy sources is also included as are advanced wastewater treatment through electrolysis. The book also explores electrochemical methods for biomass upgrading and valorization, integrating electrolysis with anaerobic digestion and waste-to-energy processes, amongst many other important topics.
