Opis

Non-conventional hydrocarbon exists in all three solid, liquid (oil), and gaseous states and is recovered from widely spread resource rock. It differs from the conventional hydrocarbon (petroleum oil & gas) which is produced from traditional sub-surface reservoir rock. Brief discussion on science and technology of conventional hydrocarbons is given. Distinguishable feature of the book is that it describes 15 non-conventional hydrocarbons resources in 12 chapters in 244 pages. Other books in the market include 4 to 7 non-conventional hydrocarbons. Targeted readers are student/teacher in the petroleum & chemical engineering, geology, applied chemistry departments of educational Institutions and environmentalists. Professional and technicians involved in exploration and development of hydrocarbon will find the book useful. Details of 11 major non-conventional hydrocarbons and 4 less important natural hydrocarbon resources are briefly discussed. Commercial use is related to local regulation and economic feasibility. Environmental issues associated with non-conventional hydrocarbon is reviewed and remedial measures are suggested.
