The steam engine was also found near cities. Cities produced massive amounts of energy therefore the steam was commonly used. When the steam engine was invented this lead to factories having a demand for working faster. Faster transportation was also popularized. Canals and roads were built to transport goods and people from one

The basic resources for industrialization were iron and textiles‚ along with the development of the steam engine. Furthermore‚ the industrial revolution sought improved systems of transportation. It showed the way to such important changes in the way goods were

approximately 2 percent of total greenhouse gas emissions‚ a figure which is projected to grow through 2050. Although fuel efficiency has improved by nearly 16 percent since the 1990s‚ future technologies—including better flight patterns‚ more-efficient engines‚ and alternative fuels—have promise for further emissions reductions. The profitability challenges of the early twenty-first century‚ however‚ affect the industry’s ability to invest in new technology. (Hill‚ 2010 17-22) Globally‚ air

A-Z Book of Inventions from the Industrial Revolution By: Al Yolles Automated sugar refining Automated sugar refining was created by Norbert Rillieux. Rilliex created sugar as we know it today. He created a safer and much more efficient way of processing sugar in 1843. Battery The battery was invented by Alessandro Volta. It was made of multiple zinc and silver plates stacked on each other‚ with a wire connected to both ends of the pile. With the wire touching both ends‚ this creates electricity

for a) an aircraft jet engine; and b) a land-based gas turbine The name "gas turbine" is somewhat misleading‚ because too many it implies a turbine engine that uses gas as its fuel. Actually a gas turbine (as shown schematically in Fig. 1) has a compressor to draw in and compress gas (most usually air); a combustor (or burner) to add fuel to heat the compressed air; and a turbine to extract power from the hot air flow. The gas turbine is an internal combustion (IC) engine employing a continuous
