Green Technologies Green technology‚ also known as environmental or clean technology‚ minimizes impacts on the environment and natural resources. It’s based on concepts such as conserving water and energy‚ reducing waste and pollution‚ harnessing renewable energy sources‚ finding ways to reuse materials‚ and developing less polluting technologies. Green technology is everywhere these days; in the news‚ politics‚ fashion‚ and of course technology. Green Technology is becoming so widespread

HomeExamples and SamplesIs Oil and Gas Conservation Relevant? Is Oil and Gas Conservation Relevant? Oil and natural gas are non-renewable sources of energy. There have been numerous attempts to minimize the depletion of these two resources. Scientists have proposed many reasons for the high importance of their conservation. Oil and natural gas conservation involves the use of these resources in a better and a more well-organized manner with respect to economic‚ social and ambient expenses

hydrogen are by reforming natural gas‚ or electrolysis of water. Reforming natural gas is a method to produce hydrogen by exposing natural gas to high temperature steam‚ and convert carbon monoxide with steam to produce additional hydrogen and carbon dioxide. The production process of electrolysis is to use electric energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gas. Two of the methods to store hydrogen are compressed gas storage tanks‚ or liquid hydrogen. Compressed gas storage tanks are the storage

The Solution to the Earths’ Energy Conservation Problem Gas prices have hit $6.00 a gallon! That is a scary thought‚ but reality is if we don’t start conserving our energy sources now‚ that is exactly what we will get gas for $6.00 a gallon or maybe even more. In today’s society we are only worried about the here‚ and the now. We all need to start thinking long term and come up with ideas for preserving our future. In the United States the industries use up about forty two percent of the nation’s

global warming is a natural occurrence for our planet‚ and doesn’t really exist. While others argue that human activities is causing global warming. Global warming is caused by many things such as pollution that is damaging our environment. The causes are split up into two groups. There are the natural or anthropogenic causes‚ and then there is the man-made human activity that causes damage to our Earth more. Some people believe that the natural causes are a release of methane gas from arctic tundra

are we going to do that? Is it by keeping the status quo and allowing these harmful pollutants to increase? Or are we going to finally realize that our hunger for transport is not going away‚ so we need to look at other sources of fuels for our vehicles that will help our atmosphere regain its balance? Hydrogen happens to be one of those sources for fuel. It is the simplest and most abundant element on. We will never run out of this element as a source for fuel. Compared with gasoline‚ the

Oil and natural gas are non-renewable sources of energy. There have been numerous attempts to minimize the danger of depletion of these two resources. Scientists have proposed many reasons for importance of their conservation and its convenient practical methods. Oil and natural gas conservation involvesthe use of these resources in a better and well-organized manner with respect to economic‚ social and ambient expenses and rewards‚ contributing to an efficient energy utilization and reduction

What is Air Pollution? Air Pollution is the introduction of chemicals‚ particulate matter‚ or biological materials that cause harm or discomfort to humans or other living organisms‚ or damages the natural environment into the atmosphere. What is Atmosphere? The atmosphere is the complex dynamic natural gaseous system that is essential to support life on planet Earth. Stratospheric ozone depletion due to air pollution has long been recognized as a threat to human health as well as to the Earth’s

double bond/s‚ and alkynes – unsaturated hydrocarbons with one or more triple bond/s (Shapley‚ P. 2012). Methane‚ CH4‚ is a type of alkane that is found in oil‚ gas and coal deposits [Refer to Figure 1]. It is the largest component of natural gas. At STP‚ or standard temperature and pressure‚ methane is a colourless and odorless gas (Clean Air Strategic Alliance‚ n.d.). The main reactions associated with methane are combustion and halogenation‚ such as CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O (combustion) and CH4
