This book presents a holistic view of climate change by examining a number of energy and transportation technologies and their impact on the climate. High-quality technical research results from specific test-cases around the globe are presented, and developments in global warming are discussed, focusing on current emissions policies from air and maritime transport to fossil fuel applications. Novel technologies such as carbon capture and storage are investigated together with the corresponding process and systems analysis, as well as optimization for mitigating CO2 emissions. Water resources management, waste water treatment, and waste management issues are also covered. Finally, biomass, hydrogen and solar energy applications are presented along with some insights on green buildings. Energy, Transportation and Global Warming is of great interest to researchers in the field of renewable and green energy as well as professionals in climate change management, the transportation sector, and environmental policy.

Este libro presenta una visión holística del cambio climático mediante el examen de una serie de tecnologías de energía y transporte y su impacto en el clima. Se presentan los resultados de investigación técnica de alta calidad de casos de prueba específicos en todo el mundo, y se discuten los desarrollos en el calentamiento global, centrándose en las políticas de emisiones actuales del transporte aéreo y marítimo a las aplicaciones de combustibles fósiles. Se investigan nuevas tecnologías, como la captura y el almacenamiento de carbono, junto con el análisis de procesos y sistemas correspondiente, así como la optimización para mitigar las emisiones de CO2. La gestión de recursos hídricos, el tratamiento de aguas residuales y los problemas de gestión de residuos también están cubiertos. Finalmente, las aplicaciones de biomasa, hidrógeno y energía solar se presentan junto con algunas ideas sobre edificios ecológicos. La energía, el transporte y el calentamiento global son de gran interés para los investigadores en el campo de las energías renovables y ecológicas, así como para los profesionales en la gestión del cambio climático, el sector del transporte y la política ambiental. Energy, Transportation and Global Warming is of great interest to researchers in the field of renewable and green energy as well as professionals in climate change management, the transportation sector, and environmental policy.
