Global Warming: Engineering Solutions goes beyond the discussion of what global warming is, and offers complete concrete solutions that can be used to help prevent global warming. Innovative engineering solutions are needed to reduce the effects of global warming. Discussed here are proposed engineering solutions for reducing global warming resulting from carbon dioxide pollution, poor energy and environment policies and emission pollution. Solutions discussed include but are not limited to: energy conversion technologies and their advantages, energy management and conservation, energy saving and energy security, renewable and sustainable energy technologies, emission reduction, sustainable development; pollution control and measures, policy development, global energy stability and sustainability.

Industry Reviews

From the reviews:

"The book under review in its introductory chapter ... describe the global warming problem and its impact on our planet's health and guides us towards the cures based on engineering solutions provided in the rest of the volume. ... The engineering solutions provided in the book are mainly based on lab scale demonstrations with the potential for reducing GHG emissions when implemented on a full scale basis. ... this book is a good read for all those interested in the subject." (Vishal Toro, Green Energy, Vol. 6 (6), November-December, 2010)
