Plasma Gasification and Pyrolysis

This book provides a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to the process of thermal plasma gasification and pyrolysis.

"Currently, the most widely used treatment of waste is thermal processing, such as incineration. However, thermal plasma technologies offer an alternative, cutting-edge and environmentally friendly process which is also considered more energy efficient and safe. This book provides a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to the process of thermal plasma gasification and pyrolysis. It is an ideal guide for graduate students pursuing further studies in plasma technologies and engineering, in addition toearly-career researchers and scientists from related areas looking for material contextual to their own subject-matter. Features Presents an interdisciplinary approach, applicable to a wide range of researchers in waste treatment companies, authorities, and energy and environmental policymakers. Authored by authorities in the field. Up to date with the latest developments and technologies"--
