Geothermal Energy, an inexhaustible reservoir of thermal energy within the Earth, holds immense potential for sustainable development. The 2nd edition of this comprehensive book delves into the geologic and technical aspects of harnessing various forms of this renewable green energy. It explores the distribution and transport of thermal energy within the Earth, presenting a reliable and constant source of power, unaffected by climate and weather conditions.
The text examines the efficiency of diverse shallow near-surface installations and deep geothermal systems, encompassing hydrothermal and petrothermal techniques, as well as power plants in volcanic high-enthalpy fields. It also addresses the environmental considerations associated with geothermal energy utilization, such as induced seismicity, noise pollution, and gas release to the atmosphere.
Chapters on hydraulic well tests, chemistry of deep hot water, scale formation and corrosion, development of geothermal probes, well drilling techniques, and geophysical exploration provide a comprehensive understanding of the field. This book, for the first time, comprehensively covers the wide range of applications of Geothermal Energy, making it a valuable resource for professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts alike.
