1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 GENERAL Water recycling or the reuse of treated wastewater is becoming a necessity in today’s world. Under constant threat due to climate change‚ explosive population growth‚ and wastage‚ there is tremendous pressure on water‚ a basic and valuable resource. While industrial growth and unplanned water utilization for agricultural use have depleted ground water levels in many parts of India‚ the growth of urban clusters have brought pressure on available water. Increasing

What is the topic all about ? The issue is all about land pollution. It is the destruction of Earth’s land surfaces through misuse of land resources by human activities and misuse of the soil by poor agricultural practices‚ mineral exploitation‚ industrial waste dumping and indiscriminate disposal of urban wastes. It includes the soil pollution and waste disposal. http://www.botany.uwc.ac.za/sci_ed/grade10/ecology/conservation/poll.htm It is significant to study because we’re going to tackle about

Introductory overviewAlmost all coal‚ nuclear‚ geothermal‚ solar thermal electric‚ and waste incineration plants‚ as well as many natural gas power plants are thermal. Natural gas is frequently combusted in gas turbines as well as boilers. The waste heat from a gas turbine can be used to raise steam‚ in a combined cycle plant that improves overall efficiency. Power plants burning coal‚ oil‚ or natural gas are often referred to collectively as fossil-fuel power plants. Some biomass-fueled thermal

Sources of Air Pollution: Firstly‚ air pollution may arise due to basic needs of individuals which includes domestic fire and domestic incineration which is required for cooking and heating. It is a weak and inevitable source of air pollution. Secondly‚ air pollution is caused by vehicles such as road vehicles‚ air craft’s‚ ships‚ railways and other combustion engines.

fossil fuel energies. Nuclear power plants do not release air emissions‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ but the necessary process of mining for uranium does. This is‚ arguably‚ the most essential feature of substituting fossil fuels with nuclear power. The incineration of fossil fuels has greatly contributed to the global warming problems we are having today. In 2010 alone‚ approximately 5‚800 million metric tons of carbon dioxide was released into the atmosphere. (EPA‚ 2010.) Nuclear power can assist our modern

Salt Saturation & How it Affects Salt Crystal Size 12/07/11 Research Question: How does the saturation of water affect the size of the salt crystals? This project was chosen because it was intriguing and to find out if more salt equals bigger crystals. Hypothesis: If the water is more saturated then the salt crystals will be bigger. The Independent Variable is the amount of salt in the water. The Dependent Variable is the size of the salt
