Comprehensive resource exploring integrated hydrogen technology with guidance for developing practical operating systems

Hydrogen Energy presents all-inclusive knowledge on hydrogen production and storage to enable readers to design guidelines for its production, storage, and applications, addressing the recent renewed interest in hydrogen energy to manage the global energy crisis and discussing the electrochemical potential of hydrogen in transportation and fuel cells.

Written by a highly qualified author, Hydrogen Energy explores sample topics such as:

• Essentials of hydrogen energy, such as its occurrence, physico-chemical properties, production, transmission, delivery, storage, and utilization
• Technology of hydrogen utilization in the land transport sector, such as automobiles, as well as other modes of transport, like marine and air
• Combustion characteristics and environmental pollution features, internal combustion engines, and fuel cells
• Guidelines to design prototype systems, covering their safety, hydrogen induced damages and life cycle analysis

Providing in-depth coverage of the subject, Hydrogen Energy is an ideal resource for researchers and professionals working towards developing time-bound goal-oriented hydrogen-based programs in the chemical, automobile, power, and process engineering sectors.
