Carroll J.J. Acid Gas Injection and Carbon Dioxide Sequestration

Wiley, 2010. - 300 p.This book provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of two techniques that are rapidly increasing in importance and usage in the natural gas and petroleum industry — acid gas injection and carbon dioxide sequestration. The author, a well-known and respected authority on both processes, presents the theory of the technology, then discusses practical applications the engineer working in the field can implement. Provides a complete treatment on two of the hottest topics in the energy sector – acid gas injection and carbon dioxide sequestration. Both hot–button issues in the industry, these processes will help companies in the energy industry "go green," by creating a safer, cleaner environment. These techniques also create a more efficient and profitable process in the plant, cutting waste and making operations more streamlined.
This outstanding new reference includes:
* Uses of acid gas injection, the method of choice for disposing of small quantities of acid gas
* Coverage of technologies for working towards a zero–emission process in natural gas production
* A practical discussion of carbon dioxide sequestration, an emerging new topic, often described as one of the possible solutions for reversing global warming
* Problems and solutions for students at the graduate level and industry course participantsAcknowledgementHydrogen Sulfide and Carbon Dioxide
