E-Books on Natural Gas
This book explains the basic science of natural gas. We first begin by discussing the basic properties of natural gas and how natural gas is used to create electrical power. Then we provide an overview of locating natural gas and the steps required to use natural gas. We then discuss the hazards of natural gas and best methods for minimizing those hazards. Subsequent books will explain the processes for extracting, refining, and transporting natural gas.
Extracting and Refining Natural Gas (includes Fracking) (ebook)
This book discusses everything related to locating, extracting, and refining natural gas. The first chapters discuss where natural gas can be found and the methods for extracting the natural gas from each location. The book then discusses the process of fracking, including the environmental impact of fracking operations and the best methods to minimize environmental damage. The final chapter discusses the most common steps for refining natural gas so that it can be used as a source of energy.
Natural Gas Transportation, Storage, and Use (ebook)
This book discusses how natural gas is delivered and stored after it has been refined. We discuss the three major types of natural gas pipeline systems: Gathering System, Transmission System, and Distribution System. We also discuss practical issues related to natural gas transportation such as the use of compressors and pipeline corrosion protection. We also discuss liquefied natural gas and the storage of natural gas.
