This book addresses one of the most important and challenging worldwide issues by thoroughly examining connection between chemical engineering and climate change. In the first part, it presents readers with a basic grasp of climate change, looking at its causes, role of greenhouse gases, and the theoretical foundations of radiative forcing and energy balance. It also explores chemical engineering approaches to all aspects of emissions reductions and storage. It emphasizes on all forms of energy storage systems, developments in sustainable energy, and the hydrogen economy. It goes on to analyze the major roles played by sustainable catalysis in environmental crisis and reduction strategies to make the technologies climate friendly. The book then discusses circular economy and chemical engineering contributions to plastic recycling, waste to energy conversion, and green manufacturing. Finally, the book examines the future of chemical engineering and climate change emphasizing technologies that will create more sustainable future. The role the chemical engineer plays in developing sustainable solutions and tackling complex climate change issues through real-world examples and case studies will also be included.
