A Handbook for Cogeneration and Combined Cycle Power Plants discusses the design, fabrication, installation, operation, and maintenance of combined cycle power plants. The book has been written to provide an overall view for the experienced engineer working in a specialized aspect of the subject and for the young engineering graduate or undergraduate student who is being exposed to the field of power plants for the first time. The book has proven to be very useful as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses as well as for in-house company training programs related to power generation, and I believe that the new edition will further extend the knowledge of the engineer in this field. The second edition is not only an updating of the technology, which has taken great leaps forward since the year 2001, but I have also rewritten the introductory chapter to bring the reader new information in the power industry, especially carbon sequestration technology, which will be a topic of g
