CLEAN AND RENEWABLE ENERGY PRODUCTION
According to the World Renewable Energy Council (WREC), by the year
2100, the world's population will increase to 12 billion and the
worldwide energy demand will increase steeply to about five times the
present scenario. Researchers are striving to find alternative forms
of energy, and this quest is strongly forced by the increasing worry
over climate change and planetary heating. Among the diverse varieties
of alternative energy sources, biomass has the singular advantage of
being carbon neutral. The carbon that is discharged to the atmosphere
during its exercise is read back during the utilization of biomass
resources for energy output. Currently, biomass provides approximately
13% of the world's primary energy supply and more than 75% of global
renewable energy. Indeed, it is estimated that bioenergy could
contribute 25-33% of the global energy supply by 2050. Continued
adoption of biomass will require efficient conversion rates and
avoidance of competition with food and fibers.
This book focuses on the recent practices in clean energy and
renewable energy. The contributors highlight how newer technologies
are reducing the dependency on non-renewable resources, benefiting the
researchers who are working in the area of clean and renewable energy
production. This new volume will also benefit mechanical engineers,
electrical engineers, and bioengineers as they will be updated with
the recent work progressing all over the globe. It will benefit the
professionals working in the renewable energy sector such as solar,
wind, hydrothermal, hydrogen, and bioenergy, including professors,
research scholars, industry professionals, and students working in
this field.
