INTRODUCTION Since carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere is accumulating rapidly because of burning fossil fuel‚ coal‚ oil and natural gas for power generation‚ transportation‚ industrial and domestic uses‚ our earth has been facing global warming‚ sea level rising‚ flooding and other adverse changes which damage to our ecosystem. To address this challenge‚ we need to find out other alternative ways that do not produce carbon dioxide or that reduce the release of enormous amount of carbon

research on hydropower and biomass energy. So if you find out what it is‚ roughly explain‚ and then say how we would use it to benefit Venezuela: hydropower: what it is; ydro power is used to generate electricity. Eg Boulder dam Once the electricity is generated‚ it is mixed in with the rest of the power grid. So users of electricity can’t tell if their electricity came from a hydroelectric power plant‚ a nuclear power plant‚ or a wind turbine power plant. Things powered by electricity:

technique that is able to convert waste plastics into gasoline-range hydrocarbons [1]. There are four major methods for conversion of organic wastes to synthetic fuels: (1) hydrogenation‚ (2) pyrolysis‚ (3) thermal and/or catalytic cracking‚ (4) gasification and bioconversion [2‚ 3]. Literature reports several papers on pyrolysis of plastic wastes [4]. The decomposition of a polymer mixture over HZSM-5 modified with phosphoric acid zeolite catalysts (PZSM-5) has been comparatively studied [5]. Catalytic

SOTA Review Carbon Capture and Storage(CCS) This research paper will briefly go over some of the designs that are being used and have been used throughout the history of carbon capture. To start‚ it is important to put in perspective what kind of money is spent on the capturing of carbon in a general sense. Another thing that is important to understand is a few of the main ways to capture carbon. Since the project definition is very specific‚ it is easy to find which types of capture will be

Evaluating the sustainability of the EU policy: “By 2020‚ 10% of transport fuel in the EU should be supplied from Biofuels” Introduction: The 2009 Renewable Energy Directive (RED) required a 10% share of renewable energy in the transport sector by 2020; biofuels must emit a minimum of 35% less greenhouse gases (GHG) than the fossil fuels they replace‚ increasing to 50% for existing plants in 2017 and 60% for new infrastructure thereafter. The Fuel Quality Directive‚ setting a target of a 6% GHG
