Exporting products is truly beneficial for every country's economic development. Canada having the third largest volume of oil reserves in the world, export oil through pipelines by transporting it over long distances (Asia Pacific, 2010). Recently, eight major pipeline projects are being proposed in Canada to transport increased oil production to the market (Joseph et al., 2015). Many economists saw these projects as something that would provide economic benefits to the country such as…

The development of simple methods for generating molecular complexity with defined stereochemistry from easily accessible starting materials became significant and fascinating over last few decades. A simple methoxyphenol is found to be most appropriate precursor for generating wide range of complex cyclic and acyclic architectures. Several chemical1-5 and electrochemical methods6 have been used for the umpolung of electron-rich nucleophilic 2-methoxyphenols and 4-methoxyphenols to electrophilic…

One solution to reduce traffic –related air pollution is to use natural gas vehicles. According to U.S. department of energy there are about 150,000 vehicles in the Unites states and approximate 15.2 million vehicles worldwide powered by natural gas. Natural gas vehicles, which can run on compressed natural gas (CNG), are good choice for high mileage. Natural gas vehicles generally emit 13-21 % fewer greenhouse gas emissions than comparable gasoline and diesel vehicles. CNG is considered…

John D. Rockefeller was considered one of the first major philanthropists and entrepreneurs of the United States. He created the Standard Oil Company and from then, he revolutionized refinery production. It is important to analyze and study the methods he used and the period of time he used them in. The time period plays a major role because there was no industries being established around 1865 and yet Rockefeller managed to gain about ninety percent of the nations capacity of the refinery…

Northrop Grumman is a major government contractor that is well known for its work with the United States military and on occasion with NASA as well. It works on numerous manufacturing projects and technological innovations for cutting edge programs and with this massive sphere of influence, a certain level of responsibility for safe operation is expected of them. Publically, Grumman has vowed “Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) organization is heading the company’s efforts to provide a safe…

it could be brought down to around $1 per gallon.”(Clark, Josh “Grassoline” 6-7) Unfortunately, transportation is another problem that cellulose ethanol is dealing with. “Ethanol is highly corrosive and can’t be shipped via pipelines as oil and petroleum can. This means that it must be transported by trucks, which adds to the cost of production and lowers the energy ratio, since big tanker trucks require more fossil fuels to transport the ethanol for distribution.” (Clark, Josh “Gassoline” 7) On…
