The article showed how methane can be generated from water and carbonate rock when the ...             Combustion: Physical and Chemical Fundamentals, Modeling and Simulation, Experiments, Pollutant Formation2 reviews J. Warnatz, U. Maas, ... Springer, 2006 Combustion modeling review This is a very good book. It format is very succictinct and as such spares no space for unecessary content. This give the narrative a somewhat terse style. It must be remembered that the science of combustion wrestles with some formidable concepts; such as turbulent flow, reduced reaction mechanisms for complex chemical reactions, fluid flow and heat transfer. This is not a book for those ...             The Deep Hot Biosphere : The Myth of Fossil Fuels32 reviews Thomas Gold Springer, 2001 The Deep Hot Biosphere: The Myth of Fossil Fuels This book provides a logical and comprehensive explanation of how petroleum hydrocarbons are formed deep in the earth's mantle and migrate upwards to form gas and crude oil fields and coal measures nearer the earth's surface. It coroborates what russian petroleum geologists have known and applied for many years where they drill wells up to 13 km deep to tap crude oil nearer its source and far ...             Geology of Carbonate Reservoirs: The Identification, Description and Characterization of Hydrocarbon ...
