Description
As the cleanest source of fossil energy with the most advantageous CO2 footprint, natural gas continues to increase its share in the global energy market. This book provides state-of-the-art contributions in the area of gas processing. Special emphasis is given to Liquified Natural Gas (LNG); the book also covers the following gas processing applications in parallel sessions: * Natural Gas processing and treatment * Gas To Power and water * Gas To Liquid (GTL) * Gas To Petrochemicals, including olefins, ammonia and methanol

Audience
process engineers and technology developers in the oil and gas industry; researchers in the field of energy, chemical engineering, petroleum engineering, mechanical engineering
