Series: Developments in Physical & Theoretical Chemistry
As the demands for cleaner, more efficient, reduced and zero carbon emitting transportation increase, the traditional focus of Combustion Chemistry research is stretching and adapting to help provide solutions to these contemporary issues. Combustion Chemistry and the Carbon Neutral Future: What will the Next 25 Years of Research Require? presents a guide to current research in the field and an exploration of possible future steps as we move towards cleaner, greener and reduced carbon combustion chemistry.

Beginning with a discussion of engine emissions and soot, the book goes on to discuss a range of alternative fuels, including hydrogen, ammonia, small alcohols and other bio-oxygenates, natural gas, syngas and synthesized hydrocarbon fuels. Methods for predicting and improving efficiency and sustainability, such as low temperature and catalytic combustion, chemical looping, supercritical fluid combustion, and diagnostic monitoring even at high pressure, are then explored. Some novel aspects of biomass derived aviation fuels and combustion synthesis are also covered.

Combining the knowledge and experience of an interdisciplinary team of experts in the field, Combustion Chemistry and the Carbon Neutral Future: What will the Next 25 Years of Research Require? is an insightful guide to current and future focus areas for combustion chemistry researchers in line with the transition to greener, cleaner technologies.

Dr. Brezinsky received his B.S. degree from the City College of New York with Honors in Chemistry. After devoting a few years to teaching science at the secondary school level he returned to the City University of New York to pursue graduate studies where he received his Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry. At the completion of his graduate work, Dr. Brezinsky joined the Chemistry Department of Brookhaven National Laboratory as a Postdoctoral Research Associate. Subsequently, he went to the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department of Princeton University to join the Fuels Research Laboratory of Professor I. Glassman as a Professional Research Staff member. Dr. Brezinsky was promoted to Research Scientist and then Senior Research Scientist. In 1996, Dr. Brezinsky was appointed Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and in 2003 assumed his current position as Professor of Mechanical Engineering. Dr. Brezinsky has published over two hundred publications and made more than one hundred seventy scientific presentations. He is the former Associate and Deputy Editor of the journal Combustion Science and Technology (1986-1996), and has been recognized for his contribution to combustion science by his designation as an Inaugural Fellow of the Combustion Institute.
