Natural gas is considered the dominant worldwide bridge between fossil fuels of today and future resources of tomorrow. Thanks to the recent shale boom in North America, natural gas is in a surplus and quickly becoming a major international commodity. Stay current with conventional and now unconventional gas standards and procedures with Natural Gas Processing: Technology and Engineering Design. Covering the entire natural gas process, Bahadori's must-have handbook provides everything you need to know about natural gas, including: - Fundamental background on natural gas properties and single/multiphase flow factors - How to pinpoint equipment selection criteria, such as US and international standards, codes, and critical design considerations - A step-by-step simplification of the major gas processing procedures, like sweetening, dehydration, and sulfur recovery - Detailed explanation on plant engineering and design steps for natural gas projects, helping managers and contractors understand how to schedule, plan, and manage a safe and efficient processing plant - Covers both conventional and unconventional gas resources such as coal bed methane and shale gas - Bridges natural gas processing with basic and advanced engineering design of natural gas projects including real world case studies - Digs deeper with practical equipment sizing calculations for flare systems, safety relief valves, and control valves

An immense treasure trove containing hundreds of equipment symptoms, arranged so as to allow swift identification and elimination of the causes. These rules of thumb are the result of preserving and structuring the immense knowledge of experienced engineers collected and compiled by the author - an experienced engineer himself - into an invaluable book that helps younger engineers find their way from symptoms to causes. This sourcebook is unrivalled in its depth and breadth of coverage, listing five important aspects for each piece of equipment: * area of application * sizing guidelines * capital cost including difficult-to-find installation factors * principles of good practice, and * good approaches to troubleshooting. Extensive cross-referencing takes into account that some items of equipment are used for many different purposes, and covers not only the most familiar types, but special care has been taken to also include less common ones. Consistent terminology and SI units are used throughout the book, while a detailed index quickly and reliably directs readers, thus aiding engineers in their everyday work at chemical plants: from keywords to solutions in a matter of minutes.

Advances in Natural Gas: Formation, Processing, and Applications is a comprehensive eight-volume set of books that discusses in detail the theoretical basics and practical methods of various aspects of natural gas from exploration and extraction, to synthesizing, processing and purifying, producing valuable chemicals and energy. The volumes introduce transportation and storage challenges as well as hydrates formation, extraction, and prevention. Volume 6 titled Natural Gas Transportation and Storage is separated into three sections. The first section discusses different natural gas transportation technologies (such as LNG, CNG, ANG, GTS, etc.). The second section introduces related apparatus for natural gas transportation and storage, including measurement systems, compressors, pumps, etc.as well as pipelines and controlling equipment. The last section explains challenges of natural gas transmission including inhibition of pipeline corrosion, cracking and wax deposition accompanied with pipeline cleaning challenges. - Introduces various natural gas transportation technologies (LNG, CNG, ANG) - Describes different apparatus for natural gas transportation and storage - Includes various challenges of natural gas transportation such as pipeline corrosion and wax deposition
