Merchant power plants differ from traditional rate-based power plants as to: 1) how they are financed and 2) where they sell the electricity they generate. A merchant power plant is funded by investors and sells electricity in the competitive wholesale power market. Since a merchant plant is not required to serve any specific retail consumers‚ consumers are not obligated to pay for the construction‚ operations or maintenance of the plant. A traditional rate-based power plant‚ on the other hand

Nuclear power plants provide about 6% of the world’s energy and 13–14% of the world’s electricity‚ with the U.S.‚ France‚ and Japan together accounting for about 50% of nuclear generated electricity. In 2007‚ the IAEA reported there were 439 nuclear

sludge is further treated in ’sludge digesters’: large heated tanks in which its chemical decomposition is catalysed by microorganisms. The sludge is largely converted to ’biogas’‚ a mixture of CH4 and CO2‚ which is used to generate electricity for the plant. The liquid is treated by bacteria which break down the organic matter remaining in solution. It is then sent to oxidation ponds where heterotrophic bacteria continue the breakdown of the organics and solar UV light destroys the harmful bacteria. The

populations of six economically important species in the genus Brassica have unusual potential for resolving many problems in plant biology and for use in education. Rapid-cycling brassicas can produce up to ten generations of seed per year and serve as models for research in genetics‚ host-parasite relations‚ molecular biology‚ cell biology‚ plant biochemistry‚ population biology‚ and plant breeding.

Noah Onoff Dr. Ho Intro to Plant Life 10 December 2012 The Evolution of Carnivorous Plants In addition to being a subject in the occasional Hollywood horror movie‚ carnivorous plants are possibly the most fantastic members of the plant world. Over time‚ they have developed unique morphological characteristics in order to survive‚ paying homage to Darwin’s theory of natural selection. How carnivorous plants evolved is still somewhat unknown to botanists‚ this‚ in addition to their morphology

PLANTS AND HUMAN BEINGS Plants and humans are living things that constitute part of the environment. These two depend on each other for their survival. But as plants can live without humans‚ humans can not live for long without plants and this essay explains why this is possible. Plants have the capability to build up organic substances they need from inorganic substances. They only need carbon dioxide‚ water and salts to make their essential substances. Glucose for example is produced from these
