Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume covers the utilization of geothermal and related energy resources that exploit variations in temperature, chemistry, etc. and require different plant designs and technologies for each location. Extending beyond power plants using geothermal and…ocean energy, coverage includes hot dry rock systems, geothermal conditioning, solar ponds, osmotic power, dry air, and potential future deep sea hydrothermal sources.Some technologies have reached the prototype stage, some not even that, but where much work has been invested, it is important to provide a complete picture if only to prevent others from following a dead-end path. For geothermal power plants, the greatest challenge remains the geothermal resource itself. Power conversion is the least uncertain part of a geothermal project, as it consists of a straightforward engineering design with work executed by experienced manufacturers, engineering firms, and contractors.The issues associated with integrating largeamounts of ocean energy into the overall supply are also explored.Collecting more than 20 new articles and updated entries, all peer reviewed, this volume in theEncyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology, Second Edition,provides an authoritative introductionfrom exploration techniques to conversion systemsfora wide range of locally available energy sources. This comprehensive reference is suitable for those just entering these fields, but also offers new insights for advanced researchers, industry experts, and decision makers.
