PYROLYSIS, The Science & Engineering of Thermochemical Decomposition

By Charles Nehme

Pyrolysis stands at the crossroads of chemistry, engineering, and sustainability. As the world grapples with mounting waste streams, depleting fossil fuels, and the urgent need for cleaner energy, pyrolysis emerges as one of the most versatile thermochemical tools at humanity's disposal. This book provides a thorough exploration of pyrolysis - from its fundamental chemistry to its diverse industrial applications.

Whether you are a chemical engineer designing a commercial plant, an environmental scientist assessing waste treatment options, a student entering the field, or a policymaker shaping the future of energy infrastructure, this book offers the depth and breadth needed to understand and apply pyrolysis technology.

The text is organized to take the reader from first principles through to real-world case studies, covering biomass, plastics, tires, and emerging feedstocks. Each chapter builds upon the last, creating a coherent narrative that spans laboratory chemistry, reactor engineering, product characterization, economic analysis, and environmental impact.
