The New Age of Non-Petroleum Transportation
ISBN-13: 9783031850271 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 390 str.
The New Age of Non-Petroleum Transportation addresses the broad topic of energy and environmental sustainability for automotive transportation in a balanced, comprehensive, and readable way. Readers will gain a basic understanding of the characteristics, advantages, and limitations of all viable alternatives to fossil fuels, as well as the basics of internal combustion engines. Fuels include ethanol, methanol, hydrogen, biodiesel, biomethane, natural gas, ammonia, dimethyl ether, and synthetic e-Fuels, and methods to calculate the carbon emissions and power output limits for each are covered. The technologies, operation, efficiency, and overall emissions of battery electric, hybrid electric, and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles will be analyzed and compared with all other vehicle fueling options. Also covered are the fueling and charging infrastructure challenges, energy resource requirements, indirect environmental impacts, safety, and economic ramifications of the transition from gasoline and diesel fuel to electric and renewable fuels. The interdependence of transportation with solar, wind, electric energy storage, and emerging renewable energy sources is discussed. The book concludes with an overview of the effect of incentives and carbon credits on the direction of automotive energy and suggestions for future career and investment opportunities enabled by this revolution.
