ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF FOSSIL FUEL POWER PLANTS

The growth of the world population (in billions) and its consumption of primary energy (EJ = exajoule, 1018 J). In 2008, eachperson in the OECD countries consumed on the average 191 GJ (GJ = 109 J), in China 67 GJ, in India 23 GJ, and in the rest of theworld, 57 GJ. The average[r]

In one group are the resources that takeso long to replace that they are considerednonrenewable. Nonrenewable resources areavailable in fixed quantities or are used up morequickly[r]

GLOBAL WARMINGGlobal warming refers to the increase of the earth’s average oftemperature due to the increasing amounts of greenhouse gases intheatmosphere. Scientists agree that the burning of fossilfuelslike oil and coal causes greenhouse gases such asCarbonDioxide to escape in[r]

Nowadays, the oily industry in Japan has problems, the degree of selfsufficiency in edible oil is only 3% and most of them is imported from abroad. Beside, biodiesel industry has become important due to the shortage of the fossil oil and increasing awareness of environmental issue. However, use of s[r]
