FACTORS The BP oil spill directly affected the health of the environment in very harmful ways. In an account of the environmental losses regarding the BP oil spill, a famous writer for the Washington Post, Kevin Nance (2015), illustrates a reflection of the consequences in the wake of this disaster: “We remember the giant oil slick burning on the water, blackening the beaches, clogging the marshlands, choking and killing the fish and wildlife.” Many forms of wildlife suffered throughout this…

States response too many serious threats too many water resources posed by Fracking. Regulation is very important and due to certain explicit exemptions from cleaning act groups, safe water associations, and others that are granted by the Energy Policy act of 2005. Natural Gas Fracking will play in the United States energy future is quickly evolving. Fracking is known to be one of the largest gas reserves in the world. Also can be referred to as a “Bridge Fuel” that, according to the gas and oil…

The availability of physicians and nurses that were authorized to practice medical had remained an unresolved issue. The USPHS initially planned for one physician to be appointed to every 1,000 inmates, and one nurse for every 200. Nikkei physicians and nurses were employed to adhere to the high demand of medical attention in the camp hospitals but still were not sufficient for the camps. (Fiset, Louis) However the Japanese medical officials and Caucasian doctors were frequently uncooperative.…

cell humans use to store excess fat also act as protection of vital organs and as a layer of insulation. Phospholipids- Phospholipids are made up of two fatty acids bonded to a glycerol. A phosphate group is bonded to hydroxyl on the glycerol. The hydrocarbon tails…

then the transition would require a lot of effort at the micro and macro level. Over the past decade, energy consumption has spiked over a hundred percent, indicating the reliance on coal. Considering that coal is the most polluting out of all the hydrocarbons available, it would be in China’s best interests to make the switch. The smog dilemma will actually hurt the economy further when the tourism rates will decrease. Who would want to risk visiting such a beautiful land and its people if…

manufacturing factories. These are factories that give out power plants emit high levels of carbon monoxide, organic compounds, and chemicals into the air. This happens almost everywhere that people live. Petroleum refineries also release lots of hydrocarbons into the air. Which causes the ozone layer to become very thin? The ozone layer is like a shield to protect the earth from the sun’s harmful rays that can hurt. Exposure to the sun cause different types of skin conditions such as sun burns,…

Agar blocks of the stem TR-S1 endophyte were cut from the pure strain actively growing on PDA Petri dishes and transferred to 1 L Erlenmeyer flasks containing a 200 g sized recipe of Corn Grit Agar(CGA). TR-S1 endophyte was incubated at room temperature at 26-28C for 21 days. Fungal metabolites were then extracted by acetone which was then partitioned with ethyl acetate and methanol respectively. TLC analysis of the ethyl acetate fraction revealed the characteristic blue spots of polyketides…

Evaporation: The rate of heat transfer in the evaporator is calculated using equations 10 and 11 Q_in=(εC)_evap (T_(in,evap)-T_evap ) (10) Where ε is the effectiveness of the evaporator, C is the capacitance rate for the air or chilled water passing through the evaporator. Tevap is the temperature of refrigerant in evaporator and Tin, evap is the temperature of the air or chilled water at the inlet of the evaporator. Equation 11 express Qin in terms of enthalpy. Q_in=m ̇_ref (h_4-h_1)…

igure 13. Saudi Arabia vs. The Globe (Nelson Complexity Index) Saudi Arabian refineries stand at 6.0, i.e. below the global average of 7.9. The reason for low NCI is because historically Saudi Arabian focus was on upstream business and refineries have been an addition to meet local demand. In the past couple of decades, the demand has grown significantly requiring more complex refineries. Furthermore, Saudi Arabia’s strategic vision to be self-sufficient and net exporter of fuels in the future…

filter into their factories exhaust and used of natural gas for their power generators to produce electricity. Other cause is from our car that we drive every day. Here are some examples of major pollutants from our car, particulate matter (PM), hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2), hazardous air pollutants (toxics), and greenhouse gases. We can help reduce air pollution by drive a fuel-efficiency vehicles burn less oil which will put fewer…
