Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Contents: Foreword. Preface. 1. Introduction. 2. General geology of Bangladesh. 3. Natural gas. 4. Crude oil. 5. Coal and peat. 6. Renewable energy-biomass and others. References. Abbreviation. Index. "This book presents a comprehensive account of the commercial energy resources of Bangladesh. The three main commercial energy sources i.e. natural gas, crude oil and coal are discussed in the context of historical development, exploration, geological occurrence, reserve and resources exploitation and utilization in the country. An introductory chapter gives an overview of energy scenario of the country. This is followed by a chapter on the general geology of Bangladesh in order to facilitate the readers on the basic geological aspects of the country as these relate to the occurrences of energy resources. The coverage on natural gas, oil and coal in individual chapter is illustrated by many diagrams and tables to make the database more comprehensive and easy to understand. Up-to-date status of the exploration and exploitation of these resources is reviewed. Discussions on individual gas field, oil field, coal field and coal mine are presented on case by case basis. In addition to the discussion on exploitation of presently known reserves, the book also throws light on the options or prospect of harnessing unconventional and undeveloped energy resources. As mentioned already, major emphasis is given in this book on the nonrenewable fossil fuels on the ground that commercial renewable energy in Bangladesh is yet to contribute to any significant scale. Short discussions are included on renewable energy sources including solar and hydro-energy as well as non-commercial biomass in the last chapter.".…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Contents: Preface. 1. Overview of the hydrosphere. 2. The physical properties of water. 3. The Physical Laws Governing Water Movement. 4. Surface water flow. 5.

Conversion factors. Solutions. Glossary. Index. "The utilization of water resources to sustain the human civilization is commonly known as "Water Engineering". In that, spirit, this book presents the overarching concepts on water for the student engineer to utilize it as a resource within the context of Bangladesh. Recent advances on understanding the environment have taught us that every single natural system has complex interactions with other natural system across various scales within the biosphere. This book therefore stresses the very important aspect of 'Interactions' among various systems of water resources that is usually absent in most water engineering textbooks. It first begins with a broad introduction of the composition of water, emphasizing particularly the phsycio-chemical properties that make it unique as an engineering resource. Subsequent chapters introduce the reader to the fundamental physical principles behind Water Movement which is then used as a background to introduce the dynamics of specific water systems (e.g. surface water, ground water and atmospheric water. The principles of remote sensing for water measurement are also introduced for those unfamiliar with modern electromagnetic technologies. The book has been written primarily for university freshman or junior level students in engineering, particularly those majoring in Civil or Environmental Engineering. With more than 60 solved examples, the book can be used as a textbook for a semester long course. Biographies of important engineering personalities who shaped water engineering as we know today, including various mind-boggling phenomena, punctuate the book at regular intervals. The ultimate aim of the book is to sustain the reader's imagination and curiosity and to attract more engineering students to study water as a precious resource utilizing modern concepts for the sustainable development of Bangladesh."
