The monograph is dedicated to an urgent problem of today – alternative energy sources. The book comprises the results of many-years multi-area theoretical and empirical system research conducted by the Author. An alternative renewable energy resource was substantiated &ndash annual growth of the Planet's vegetal mass which has “zero” CO2 emissions in the course of energy generation.
The reasons of low heat efficiency of vegetal mass were defined. The conditions of conversion of vegetal mass were determined.
Particular attention is given to the technologies of vegetal mass pyrolysis developed by the Author. They possess theoretical and practical value. There given the consideration of technological features of pyrolysis devices that implement processes of pyrolytic regeneration of vegetal mass developed by the Author (Glushkov's Pyrolytic Regeneration).
The Author uncovers the prospects of application of Glushkov's Pyrolytic Regeneration, considers economical and technical advantages in comparison to conventional technologies of energy generation (for example, fossil oil and natural gas).
The monograph will be useful to scientists and experts who work in the field of energy as well as to those who use methods of system analysis in different fields of science and engineering.
