east. Ten of the Nation’s 100 largest natural gas fields and three of its 100 largest oil fields are found in Colorado. Substantial deposits of bituminous‚ sub bituminous‚ and lignite coal are also found in the State." In the house that I live in Thornton Colorado‚ our primary types of energy are electricity‚ natural gas as well as a pellet-burning stove for the winter. Electricity is the foundation of the energy usage in Thornton. Per EIA‚ "Coal- and natural gas-fired power plants dominate electricity

creates jobs and makes us less dependent on foreign oil. Also in the last two decades their have been many laws to improve the drilling‚ transport and clean up of oil. We as Americans have a comfortable lifestyle. A large part of which comes from using natural resources. There are a lot of reasons why earth conscious people would want to prevent oil drilling in an area that is protected called The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Spills are probably the first thing on anyone’s mind when they talk about

through underground piping network applying environmentally friendly energy sources like central chilling plant. Over the past decade‚ India’s economy has seen unprecedented growth‚ which has given rise to an increase in energy demand and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The availability of clean and affordable energy and electricity has become a growing concern for the Government of India (GOI)‚ as well as industrial‚ commercial and residential end-users. DCS has fundamental cost and space saving advantages

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

But for how long can Bangladesh maintain this? It has recently been seen that we are facing various types of problems and shortages in the power and energy sector of our country. It has also been predicted that sometime in the near future all the natural resource of the country might as well be exhausted. In this paper we have tried to present a current scenario of the power and energy sector of the country and also tried to project some future figures. We have also tried to provide some solutions

drilling for natural gas in the Marcellus Shale. Tioga County was one of the first counties in Pennsylvania to experience Marcellus Shale drilling activity. It ranks second by number of Marcellus wells in PA‚ with a total of 388 drilling wells between 2008 and 2010 (including 266 in 2010) (DEP). Once disgusted by the inherent wrongs of drilling on bountiful land‚ I have become open to the potential benefits that natural gas provides through shale‚ domestically and internationally. Natural gas is a critical

Abstract Dimethyl Ether(DME) is a clean and economical alternative fuel which can be produced from various resources as natural gas‚ coal or biomass through synthesis gas. The properties of DME are similar to those of LPG and it can be used for various fields; power generation fuel‚ transportation fuel‚ home fuel‚ etc. An innovative process of direct synthesis of DME from synthesis gas has been developed. Newly developed catalyst in a slurry phase reactor gave a high conversion and high selectivity
