Carbon fibre reinforced polymer Name Institutional analysis Introduction Carbon Fibre reinforced polymer commonly known as CFRP is a very strong composite material that is majorly preferred for many automotive and aeronautical application due to the fact that despite their strength that still light that the traditional metallic materials. The polymers often used to make this composite material is epoxy‚ polyester‚ vinyl and even nylon. Thus in making CFRP carbon fibre is often combined with polymers

Nanotechnology Uses to Enhance Computer Performance Nanotechnology Uses to Enhance Computer Performance Introduction Although the core concepts of nanotechnology were introduced in the early 1950’s‚ nanotechnology was not properly introduced to the world until 1974. That was the year a Japanese scientist‚ named Tanigushi‚ coined the word “nanotechnology”. Nanotechnology refers to the constructing and engineering of systems at the atomic level. “Nanotechnology will be the major technology

Literature Review on households / individual carbon footprints Households’ carbon footprints have fluctuated on a regular basis for many years. Why is this the case? Surely our carbon footprint should be reducing with ever increasing pressures from Governments and NGOs to consider the consequences of our lifestyles on the future of our planet. This is not the result though‚ “our needs and desires are expressed in the consumer demand for commodities‚ and it is this demand for goods and services which

Investigating pH Aim: To demonstrate dissolved carbon dioxide changing the ph level of substances. Materials: * 2 beakers * 2 straws * Stop watch * Distilled water * Lime water * Litmus Paper Method: 1. Pour 100ml of Distilled water into the first beaker‚ and label said beaker. 2. Pour 100ml of Lime water into the second‚ also Label beaker. 3. Test the two liquids with litmus paper and note the ph level‚ before any carbon dioxide has been introduced. 4. Place a straw

Adding to that‚ an important component in photosynthesis is carbon dioxide‚ without carbon dioxide‚ photosynthesis can’t occur. If we were to perform photosynthesis‚ from where are going to get

CARBON CREDIT - A NEW MONETARY HARVEST Prologue: Carbon credit is the brain child of United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to bring about a clean environment in the already polluted world. The increasing awareness about the environmental degradation gave rise to the concept called Carbon Credit. The IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) has observed that: Policies that provide a real or implicit price of carbon could create incentives for producers and

making it unfit for survival of aquatic life and drinking purposes. The material used for idols like Plaster of Paris (POP) is mainly the compound of gypsum‚ sulphur‚ phosphorus and magnesium. Chemical paints comprise of mercury‚ cadmium‚ lead and carbon. Immersion of idols with such poisonous and toxic elements raises the level of acidity‚ solid matter‚ organic matter and heavy metals in water bodies. These materials don’t dissolve readily and lowers the oxygen level in water adversely affecting

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide as a Green Solvent Gregory Absillis June 2009 The majority of chemical processes in chemical synthesis are carried out in solution and organic solvents usually are the first choice. To satisfy this demand‚ 15 billion kilograms of organic are produced worldwide each year. [1] These solvents often bear considerable risk due to their toxicity‚ flammability or environmental hazards. Furthermore‚ they have to be separated from the products and recycled or disposed at

Practical 3 Title: Effect of dissolved Carbon Dioxide on the pH of Water Aim: To investigate the effect of dissolved carbon dioxide on the pH of water. Hypothesis: The dissolved carbon dioxide will cause the water to turn acid‚ lowering the pH when carbon dioxide dissolves in water in which it forms carbonic acid (H2CO3). Materials: Straws‚ distilled water‚ safety glasses‚ pH probe‚ computer‚ universal indicator‚ gloves‚ lab coats‚ measuring cylinder‚ data logger‚ printer

In Let Them Eat Carbon‚ Sinclair repeatedly stresses that the attempts politicians and governments are making to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are very expensive and generally ineffective. Ordinary families pay a heavy price for the attempts governments make to control emissions‚ as they increase electricity bills‚ raise the price of gasoline‚ and put manufacturing jobs at risk. This issue hits certain people particularly hard: industrial worker‚ as they are already struggling to compete with
