Download or read book Sulfur Energy and Environment written by Beat Meyer and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-11 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sulfur, Energy, and Environment is a guide to the properties of sulfur; its three important compounds; and a review of the production, use, and recovery of sulfur in relation to energy production and environmental protection. After a brief introduction to the history of sulfur, the chemical properties of the element and some important compounds are reviewed, using common analytical methods. Sulfur is a strategic chemical in many modern applications and may make headway into high-volume non-chemical uses as it is being modified according to our changing technology and needs. The sources of sulfur and where it frequently occurs is explained. This discussion is followed by citing reviews of the four most important cycles, that is, the global sulfur cycle, hydrosphere, atmospheric sulfur budget, and the anthropogenic sulfur cycle. Sulfur production methods, coal combustion chemistry, and flue gas desulfurization are then described. The many uses of sulfur are described, including in medicine, agriculture, chemical industry, and the plastic industry. However, throughout the production of sulfur, problems affecting the environment occur, so environmental control and legislation are also discussed. Finally, the trends of sulfur research, production, use and recovery, role of chemistry, and the future overall area where science, energy, chemistry, and the environment exist together are presented. Chemists and chemistry students, industrialists, and environmental planners will find this guide to sulfur helpful. Lecturers in chemistry and researchers in the many fields of application of sulfur will likewise benefit from it.

Download or read book Effects of Sulfur Compounds and Other Air Pollutants on Soil and Groundwater written by Lars Nordberg and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a condensed literature survey of published material on the acidification of soil and groundwater. Three criteria describe soil acidification, viz. a decrease of exchangeable base cations, an increase of the aluminum concentration in the soil solution, and a pH decline over time. The degradation of soils due to acid deposition follows a pattern in three steps: (1) the excess load of hydrogen ions increases the weathering rate of soil minerals, keeping the pH almost constant. (2) the leaching losses of Mg, K and certain trace elements increase and cause nutrient deficiency in the soil, the soil pH decreases gradually and the solubility of toxic metals increases, (3) the primary forest productivity decreases and plant damages occur. Step 2 is reached in large parts of central and northern Europe as far as forest soils are concerned. Step 3 is reached in parts of central and southern Sweden. However, there is no general agreement as to the factors causing the deterioration. Concerning groundwater it is stated that a number of inventories report the occurrence of acid groundwater in various aquifers. Also corrosion is mentioned. Changes with time during the last decades have been observed in a small number of reported cases, e.g. as decreasing pH and alkalinity, and increasing content of Ca and Mg in the groundwater, particularly in sensitive, shallow systems Apart from acid deposition also biogeochemical processes, changed land use and pumping, and groundwater recharge conditions are referred to for the explanation of the observed changes.
Download or read book Crude Oil Fouling written by Francesco Coletti and published by Gulf Professional Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With production from unconventional rigs continuing to escalate and refineries grappling with the challenges of shale and heavier oil feedstocks, petroleum engineers and refinery managers must ensure that equipment used with today's crude oil is protected from fouling deposits Crude Oil Fouling addresses this overarching challenge for the petroleum community with clear explanations on what causes fouling, current models and new approaches to evaluate and study the formation of deposits, and how today's models could be applied from lab experiment to onsite field usability for not just the refinery, but for the rig, platform, or pipeline. Crude Oil Fouling is a must-have reference for every petroleum engineer's library that gives the basic framework needed to analyze, model, and integrate the best fouling strategies and operations for crude oil systems. - Defines the most critical variables and events that cause fouling - Explains the consequences of fouling and its impact on operations, safety, and economics - Provides the technical models available to better predict and eliminate the potential for fouling in any crude system
Download or read book The Sulfur Problem written by Diane Stirling and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sulfur compounds contaminate many industrially important feedstocks and, on release to the atmosphere as sulfur oxides, can cause widespread damage to the ecosystem. The main objectives of The Sulfur Problem: Cleaning Up Industrial Feedstocks are to demonstrate the importance of eliminating sulfur contaminants from the environment and the measures necessary to effect this. Using a systematic and pedagogical approach, the reader is first presented with the problem. Current technology for solving it is then outlined together with appropriate theory on the synthesis, structure and sorption behaviour of the materials used. Relevant characterisation techniques are described with reference to typical sorbents, to demonstrate how the sorption behaviour of the materials correlates with their properties. The book is unique in blending together aspects of environmental chemistry, materials/solid state chemistry, surface chemistry, catalysis and separation processes to address the problem of sulfur contaminants in a wide range of feedstocks.

Download or read book Organic Sulfur Compounds written by N. Kharasch and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organic Sulfur Compounds, Volume I deals with the chemistry of organic sulfur compounds such as disulfides, polysulfides, olefins, acetylenes, and chloroethylenes. Topics covered range from the inorganic acids of sulfur and the thermodynamics of organic sulfur compounds to some applications of isotopic sulfur and the stereochemistry of disulfides and polysulfides. The mechanism of oxidation of thiols to disulfides is also discussed. Comprised of 40 chapters, this volume first considers the precise structures of elemental sulfur in relation to the reactions of sulfur compounds, followed by an analysis of the inorganic acids of sulfur. The reader is then introduced to the thermodynamics of organic sulfur compounds and the bonding characteristics of the sulfur atom, as well as the infrared spectra of organosulfur compounds. Subsequent chapters focus on the ionic scission of the sulfur-sulfur bond; nucleophilic reactions of thiols with acetylene and chloroethylene; reactions of sulfur with olefins; and the chemistry of isothiocyanates. This book should prove useful to advanced students, practitioners, and research workers in the field of organic chemistry.
