what is a problem to our environment in obtaining and using Nuclear energy?
Researching,but also:
How does it benefit us?How do we use it as an energy source?What harm are we causing Nuclear Energy by its use or obtaining it? What are 3 effects on using Nuclear Energy to the environment? What are 2 alternatives that would help in using this resource in a more productive way?What are 2 alternatives that would help protect the environment in obtaining/using Nuclear Energy?
I was wondering,my kid asked me and i was unable to answer so please answer,thanks.
I need an alternative that would help protect the environment in obtaining/using Nuclear Energy
Alternative Fuel Vehicles – LPG – (Liquified Petroleum Gas)?
Please answer the following questions according to LPG
(Liquefied/Liquified Petroleum Gas) as an alternative fuel for
vehicles. Please give your answers from the perspective of a
Scientist/Engineer. Give as much detail as possible and list the
websites that you found information on.
? How does the vehicle work? What are the parts? How is it
different from/similar to an internal combustion engine?(keep this
simple)
? What is the fuel? How is the fuel produced? Is there any
energy used in the production of the fuel? If so, what is the source
of this energy?
? What are the by-products from this fuel source, and does
this pose a problem?
? Map the energy conversions involved (all the way back to the
original energy source).
? Discuss the efficiency of the vehicle.
? Include any relevant chemical equations.
Do you know why it is important to recycle?
When we recycle, we are taking back some of our nonrenewable resources and gaining the ability to reuse them. Considering things like minerals, coal, and fossil fuels are in short supply, it is important that we take every opportunity to make the most of these dwindling natural resources. We need to use landfills only when we have done everything necessary to reclaim any useful waste.
Did you know that methane and leachete are both byproducts of slowly rotting waste created in landfills? Where methane occurs naturally and has the potential of being an energy source, leachete does not have benefits; in fact, it has to have special holding ponds with bacteria added so as not to contaminate water sources. Even closed landfills have to retain insurance for a period of 30 years due to possibilities of explosions!
Also another thing to consider is that if we recycle and compost, then our need for mining and garbage pickup would be virtually eliminated!
