Zusatztext "In this book! the authors discuss (in my opinion extremely thoroughly) gasification techniques that can be carried out in one of many different reactor configurations such as: fixed be; fluid be; bubbling! circulating! entrained win bed; moving bed; rotary kiln; and cyclonic. Each technology is discussed to provide the reader with a working knowledge of the process as well as a view of each system's advantages and disadvantages. ? the whole book is resplendent with cost data and analysis of the operation and advantages of the system reviewed. ?" - Gary F.
