Atmospheric Photochemistry and Hydrocarbon Genesis

The Origins of Hydrocarbons: A Balanced Perspective challenges conventional views on hydrocarbon formation by presenting a unified model that bridges the biogenic and abiogenic theories. Suresh Bansal argues that biomass, rather than being the primary source, has been preserved and blended into sedimentary rocks through natural processes. He suggests that by incorporating additional vital signatures into current exploration methods, India could potentially transform from a petroleum-importing nation to an exporting one. Written in an engaging and accessible style, this book aims to captivate a broad audience-from young students and experienced scientists to female researchers and curious readers of all ages. Bansal also emphasizes the importance of understanding Earth's atmospheric lab to recycle greenhouse gases into future energy sources and vital organic matter
