✦ Synopsis

With the depletion of the world's natural resources, the field of chemistry is moving towards other methods for the generation of sustainable energy. This book examines the various catalytic approaches to energy generation, covering everything from fuel cells to hydrogen storage and provides in-depth information on the principles behind an approach and the variations of them.

The authority behind this reference book is the IDECAT Networks of Excellence and it is clearly divided into four parts covering fuel cells, hydrogen and methane storage, hydrogen and hydrogen vectors production and industrial catalysis for sustainable energy.

Theoretical and practical chemistry is combined incorporating industrial, governmental and academic points of view.

An invaluable information source for a variety of chemists, engineers and libraries and anyone with an interest in the use of catalysis for energy production.

The world-renowned industrial chemist Professor Gabriele Centi provides the foreword to this lovely edition to any bookshelf.
