Description
Description
Advances and Technology Development in Greenhouse Gases: Emission, Capture and Conversion is a comprehensive series that discusses the composition and properties of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and introduces different sources of GHGs’ emission and the relation between GHGs and global warming. The comprehensive and detailed presentation of common technologies as well as novel research related to all aspects of GHGs makes this work an indispensable encyclopedic resource for researchers in academia and industry.
Greenhouse Gases Emissions and Climate Change reviews the sources of GHGs’ emissions and controlling techniques and introduces the sources of GHGs from domestic and industrial to agricultural. The book addresses the impact of their release on human health followed by politics and economics. Section 1 deals with the sources GHGs’ emission and its health impact and political and economic effects, followed by the environmental and economic assessments of inhibition techniques. Section 2 is devoted to mineral carbonation as an efficient tool for controlling GHGs’ emission. Section 3 discusses other strategies such as stratospheric aerosol injection and ocean mirror that help control GHGs’ emission.

Mohammad Reza Rahimpour
Prof. Mohammad Reza Rahimpour is a professor in Chemical Engineering at Shiraz University, Iran. He received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Shiraz University joint with University of Sydney, Australia 1988. He started his independent career as Assistant Professor in September 1998 at Shiraz University. Prof. M.R. Rahimpour, was a Research Associate at University of California, Davis from 2012 till 2017. During his stay in University of California, he developed different reaction networks and catalytic processes such as thermal and plasma reactors for upgrading of lignin bio-oil to biofuel with collaboration of UCDAVIS. He has been a Chair of Department of Chemical Engineering at Shiraz University from 2005 till 2009 and from 2015 till 2020. Prof. M.R. Rahimpour leads a research group in fuel processing technology focused on the catalytic conversion of fossil fuels such as natural gas, and renewable fuels such as bio-oils derived from lignin to valuable energy sources. He provides young distinguished scholars with perfect educational opportunities in both experimental methods and theoretical tools in developing countries to investigate in-depth research in the various field of chemical engineering including carbon capture, chemical looping, membrane separation, storage and utilization technologies, novel technologies for natural gas conversion and improving the energy efficiency in the production and use of natural gas industries.
