A fire occurred in a transformer vault that supplied power to a pesticide storage warehouse. The warehouse also caught fire. The warehouse was located in a rural area. There was a river adjacent to the warehouse that was the source of drinking water for a town downstream of the warehouse. The chemical products that were used in the transformer and the chemicals that were stored in the warehouse were all industrial strength and were supposed to be handled with extreme caution. All of these chemicals

Biodiesel. Due to cost considerations Jatropha oil‚Karanja oil‚Crude Palm Oil and Palm oil Stearin are being used as raw material to manufacture biodiesel. Biodiesel is safe‚ biodegradable‚ and reduces serious air pollutants such as particulate‚ carbon monoxide‚ hydrocarbons‚ and air toxic. Blends of 20% biodiesel with 80% petroleum diesel (B20) can generally be used in unmodified diesel engines. Biodiesel can also be used in its pure form (B100)‚ but it too may require certain engine modifications to avoid

In this investigation I will be burning alcohol ’s to heat up a can of water. I will be burning four alcohol ’s‚ methanol‚ ethanol‚ propanol and butanol. The aim is to find out how much energy is produced when burning these alcohols. Alcohol ’s react with oxygen in the air to form water and carbon dioxide. The reaction that is involved in burning alcohols is exothermic because heat is given out. From this reason the reactant energy is higher than that of the product. The energy is given out when

An atmosphere (New Latin atmosphaera‚ created in the 17th century from Greek ἀτμός [atmos] "vapor"[1] and σφαῖρα [sphaira] "sphere"[2]) is a layer ofgases surrounding a planet or other material body of sufficient mass[3] that is held in place

gasses and different sized particles that fills the air with over 4000 chemicals‚ including 43 carcinogens and over 400 other toxins (Glantz & Daynard‚ 1991). One of the gasses emitted by cigarette is carbon monoxide‚ a colorless and orderless poison. By attaching to hemoglobin‚ the carbon monoxide lessens the blood ’s ability to carry oxygen. There are many effects of cigarette smoking on the actual smoker. They include lung cancer and other cancers‚ cardiovascular malfunctions‚ strokes‚ chronic

Happy land Social Club Happy Land was a great place for the poor individuals living in that area at the time. The place had cheap drinks and everyone came there for fun. People from the Bronx would come here on the weekends to party and celebrate. People from the area would always end up here. Then on March 25‚ 1990‚ one of New York’s worst fire disasters took 87 lives in only minutes. This was one of the worst fires in 79 years since the hotel fire killing 97 people.
