Among those inventions were the deep drilling for gas and the parachute as well as tea which will be explained later in the essay. Deep Drilling for gas was a technique developed in 100 BC‚ for the use of drilling for gasoline which runs most of the world. The parachute was invented in the Second Century BC and was used for recreational apparatuses for thrill seeking Chinese

Specifically‚ it will discuss how the increase in shale gas production in the United States has validated the commercial viability of shale gas drilling through the use of new technological processes including hydraulic fractures in horizontal wells. This technology is then being applied to Canada where according to the NEB‚ over 1000 tcf of shale gas has been discovered to date. Introduction

Geothermal energy plants work? Dry steam‚ Flash steam‚ and Binary cycle are just 3 of several different types of geothermal systems. These three are the ones that are mainly used in bigger plants‚ not as personal ones for your house. They work by drilling deep into the earth until they find what they call a “geothermal reservoir” where superheated water stays. They pump out the water‚ which when it becomes less pressurized‚ it turns into steam which turns a turbine which generates electricity. Once
