The Future of Helium as a Natural Resource by William J. Nuttall,Richard Clarke,Bartek Glowacki Pdf

The book reveals the changing dynamics of the helium industry on both the supply-side and the demand-side. The helium industry has a long-term future and this important gas will have a role to play for many decades to come. Major new users of helium are expected to enter the market, especially in nuclear energy (both fission and fusion). Prices and volumes supplied and expected to rise and this will prompt greater efforts towards the development of new helium sources and helium conservation and recycling.

The Impact of Selling the Federal Helium Reserve by National Research Council,Commission on Engineering and Technical Systems,National Materials Advisory Board,Commission on Physical Sciences, Mathematics, and Applications,Board on Physics and Astronomy,Committee on the Impact of Selling the Federal Helium Reserve Pdf

The Helium Privatization Act of 1996 (P.L. 104-273) directs the Department of the Interior to begin liquidating the U.S. Federal Helium Reserve by 2005 in a manner consistent with "minimum market disruption" and at a price given by a formula specified in the act. It also mandates that the Department of the Interior "enter into appropriate arrangements with the National Academy of Sciences to study and report on whether such disposal of helium reserves will have a substantial adverse effect on U.S. scientific, technical, biomedical, or national security interests." This report is the product of that mandate. To provide context, the committee has examined the helium market and the helium industry as a whole to determine how helium users would be affected under various scenarios for selling the reserve within the act's constraints. The Federal Helium Reserve, the Bush Dome reservoir, and the Cliffside facility are mentioned throughout this report. It is important to recognize that they are distinct entities. The Federal Helium Reserve is federally owned crude helium gas that currently resides in the Bush Dome reservoir. The Cliffside facility includes the storage facility on the Bush Dome reservoir and the associated buildings pipeline.

Selling the Nation's Helium Reserve by National Research Council,Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences,National Materials Advisory Board,Board on Physics and Astronomy,Committee on Understanding the Impact of Selling the Helium Reserve Pdf

Helium has long been the subject of public policy deliberation and management, largely because of its many strategic uses and its unusual source-it is a derived product of natural gas and its market has several anomalous characteristics. Shortly after sources of helium were discovered at the beginning of the last century, the U.S. government recognized helium's potential importance to the nation's interests and placed its production and availability under strict governmental control. In the 1960s, helium's strategic value in cold war efforts was reflected in policies that resulted in the accumulation of a large reserve of helium owned by the federal government. The latest manifestation of public policy is expressed in the Helium Privatization Act of 1996 (1996 12 Act), which directs that substantially all of the helium accumulated as a result of those earlier policies be sold off by 2015 at prices sufficient to repay the federal government for its outlays associated with the helium program. The present volume assesses whether the interests of the United States have been well served by the 1996 Act and, in particular, whether selling off the helium reserve has had any adverse effect on U.S. scientific, technical, biomedical, and national security users of helium.

Advances in Natural Gas: Formation, Processing, and Applications. Volume 5: Natural Gas Impurities and Condensate Removal by Mohammad Reza Rahimpour,Mohammad Amin Makarem,Maryam Meshksar Pdf

Advances in Natural Gas: Formation, Processing, and Applications is a comprehensive eight-volume set of books that discusses in detail the theoretical basics and practical methods of various aspects of natural gas from exploration and extraction, to synthesizing, processing and purifying, producing valuable chemicals and energy. The volumes introduce transportation and storage challenges as well as hydrates formation, extraction, and prevention. Volume 5 titled Natural Gas Impurities and Condensates Removal comprehensively discusses the characteristics and properties of natural gas condensates and dehydrated non-acidic impurities. The book describes related environmental challenges, removal standards, policies and regulations as well as economic assessment. It covers particulates (such as aerosols, arsenic, etc.) and condensates removal techniques from natural gas as well as mercury, nitrogen and helium removal from natural gas by absorption, adsorption and membrane-based processes. Introduces different impurities and condensates of natural gas with their characteristics Includes common methods for particulates and condensates removal from natural gas such as adsorption, absorption and cryogenic techniques Describes various membrane technologies for particulates and condensates removal from natural gas
