| adam_text | Fuel for the 21st Century
Distinguished Professor Emeritus, University of Manitoba, Canada
Natural gas is the world s cleanest fossil fuel; it generates less air
pollution and releases less C02 per unit of useful energy than liquid
fuels or coals. With its vast supplies of conventional resources and
nonconventional stores, the extension of long-distance gas pipelines
and the recent expansion of liquefied natural gas trade, a truly global
market has been created for this clean fuel.
Naturai Gas: Fuel for the 21st Century discusses the place and
prospects of natural gas in modern high-energy societies. Vaclav
Smil presents a systematic survey of the qualities, origins, extraction,
processing, and transportation of natural gas, followed by a detailed
appraisal of its many preferred, traditional and potential uses, and
the recent emergence of the fuel as a globally traded commodity.
The unfolding diversification of sources, particularly hydraulic
fracturing, and the role of natural gas in national and global energy
transitions are described.The book concludes with a discussion on the
advantages, risks, benefits, and costs of natural gas as a leading, if not
dominant, fuel of the 21st Century.
This interdisciplinary text will be of interest to a wide readership
concerned with global energy affairs including professionals and
academics in energy and environmental science, policy makers,
consultants, and advisors with an interest in the rapidly-changing
global energy industry.
