Fuel efficiency

Renewable energy vs Fossil fuels The earth has been around for a copious amount of years. Everyday people affect the earth in both a positive and negative way. The most common way of producing energy is by the use fossil fuels. The use of fossil fuels can have a major impact on the earth’s environment. For instance, oil spills, global warming, etc. While some difference between fossil fuels and renewable energy are evident, the similarities are sometimes overlooked. Many of the devices people…

volatile fuels. The fuel mixing was done in carburettor in earlier days but now it is done using fuel injection. Petrol engines runs at higher speed than diesel engine, this is due to the small size of piston. Petrol engine has many applications like: 1) Motorcars 2) Motorcycles 3) Aircrafts 4) Motorboats Diesel engine: It is also called compression-ignition engine. It is an IC engine that uses of heat of compression for ignition and burning of fuels. It has highest thermal efficiency due…

proposal covered a range of global issues that need to be dealt with by 2030. The 7th goal emphasizing on closing the energy gap and ensure that sustainable, safe and modern energy services are accessible globally. It also aims to double the energy efficiency without having to compromise the increase in the share of renewable energy in the global energy production. “If access to modern energy services were an independent human right, obligations would be imposed on states, both at the…

every part of their life. The energy consumption is expected to grow about 60% in the next two decades throughout the world. As a large part of the total energy is provided by fossil fuels, the future of the world economy growth is highly dependent on whether the ever-increasing energy demand can be met. Fossil fuels are not ever lasting and economic crisis may happen if world economy will heavily dependent on them in future. Electrical Power is one of the most critical components of…

depends on a finite resource: fossil fuels. Easily accessible deposits of fossil fuels are dwindling, prompting stakeholders on both sides of the aisle to innovate and present options that either prolong the usage of our current energy sources, or harness renewable resources to reduce atmospheric greenhouse gases. Firmly backed by the President of the United States and top research institutions, solar energy, specifically converting light energy into liquid fuels, warrants discussion. However,…

invention of CARBON NANO TUBES. The invented tubes can store hydrogen in a better way in terms of security and efficiency. With respect to the annual production of hydrogen fuel, transportation of hydrogen to the refueling stations is a major challenge, but with the recent comprehensive research by NREI, transporting energy to the stations is made possible by the mixture of both hydrogen and natural gas in the natural gas pipelines, and this comes with a low mixing rates of 3% to 5%. And due to…

panels create a good alternative. Another reason many people prefer solar panels is because they are renewable and long-lasting. “No possible possibility that solar energy will run out, unlike fossil fuel” (Source B). For this reason, many tend to adapt to the idea of the solar panel. Fossil fuels, now, are becoming very hard to attain, because of its long process in forming and high demand, requiring conductors to burn more of it. Consequently, this creates a low supply, while also harming the…

misnomer that whenever term “biofuel” is prompted, it is somehow associated with use in automobiles, trucks and possibly planes. Whereas, due to diversity, biofuels have the capacity to replace all types of human energy needs from home heating to vehicle fuel and most importantly electricity generation. This has been explained below:-. (a) Transportation. Globally, transportation accounts for 25% of energy demand and consumes nearly 62% of fossil oil. Two-thirds of this energy is used to…

on fossil fuels such as coal. This is an issue because natural fuels such as coal are nonrenewable and harmful to the earth we live on. Since fossil fuels are nonrenewable, that means they will run out eventually because it takes tens of thousands of years for them to form. Other sources of energy include, but are not limited to, nuclear energy, solar energy, wind energy, and hydroelectric energy. Nuclear energy is very efficient but there are major liabilities…

discussing the beneficial and non-beneficial of fuel cells and associating it with fossil fuels. But first, you might query what fuel cells and fossil is? Well fuel cell is an electrochemical energy stratagem that converts hydrogen fuel as well as oxygen to produce electricity, heat and water. While on the other hand fossil fuel are the products fossils that are really old. For instance the animal and plant fossils but however, the three main sources of fuel are coal, natural gas and…
