Innovations in Production and Applications of Alternative Fuels is a comprehensive reference book that covers the basics of alternative fuels, production techniques, physicochemical properties, and their various applications from a thermal engineering perspective. It focuses on alternative fuel production from diverse feedstocks, providing insights into feedstock selection, preparation techniques, combustion performance, emissions, and the use of additives and nanoparticles to enhance fuel performance in internal combustion engines. This book is essential for understanding the field of alternative fuels, and is invaluable for professionals and researchers in energy engineering, thermal engineering, environmental science, and sustainable development.

It delves into different feedstocks, including edible-based, non-edible based, waste-based alternatives, algae-based feedstocks, and hydrogen carriers like ammonia fuel. It also explores the application of nanoparticles and additives to enhance fuel performance. Additionally, economic aspects, energy policies, and challenges associated with alternative fuels are discussed, offering practical insights and recommendations for future advancements.

Hafiz Muhammad Ali is an associate professor of Mechanical Engineering at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Saudi Arabia. He earned his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Queen Mary University of London in 2011 and completed a postdoc at the University of California, Merced, in 2015-16. His primary research areas include thermal sciences, heat transfer, and solar energy. Over his career, he has supervised numerous students and published over 400 papers in reputable international journals, with citations exceeding 30,000. He has received several awards, including the 2017 “Best Young Research Scholar” from the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan, and recognition as a highly cited researcher in 2021 and 2022 by Clarivate. Ali has represented his institution and Pakistan at various international conferences, delivering keynote and invited talks. His research interests also encompass electronics cooling, condensation, nanofluids, heat transfer devices, and thermal management. Additionally, he serves on editorial boards for several prominent journals, contributing to the advancement of thermal sciences research. Haseeb Yaqoob earned a doctoral degree from the School of Mechanical Engineering, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia. He is currently working as a research fellow in the Mechanical and Construction Engineering Department at Northumbria University, United Kingdom. Prior to his work at Northumbria University, he worked as a post-doctoral Research Fellow at KFUPM and has an interest in alternative fuel, renewable energy, and thermal sciences. Over the span of five years, he supervised numerous undergraduate and graduate students and his work produced more than 40 papers featured in various reputed international journals, with over 1000 citations.
