Nuclear Hydrogen Production Handbook

Description:

A comprehensive review of the current state and future prospects of nuclear hydrogen production, this volume offers substantial scholarly analyses, industrial data, and extensive references. It discusses research sponsored by Japan, the US, Korea, China, France, and the EU. Coverage includes all major nuclear reactors and associated hydrogen processes, including nuclear hydrogen production methods and systems. Contributors address applications such as high-temperature electrolysis of steam-, heat- and corrosion-resistant construction materials. They also explore topics including design of chemical reactors and development of ceramic process heat exchangers, operation management and safety, and thermochemical iodine-sulfur processes.

Review Quotes:

Nuclear hydrogen will be significant for a low carbon society. This book is excellent for the first step.
--Dr. Yoshimi Okada, Chiyoda Corporation, Japan

Hydrogen economy as an alternative energy source to reduce CO2 emission has been discussed for decades. The fact that nuclear hydrogen production is now almost reality is not widely known. This handbook gives us the most thorough review of the state of art of nuclear hydrogen, which could be used not only for scientific and technological communities, but also for the potential users to assess its reality.
--Dr. Toru Ogawa, Japan Atomic Energy Agency, Japan
