Arise of only 3 Degrees affects on our world
Arise of 3°C in global temperatures above pre-industrial levels by 2100 would be disastrous. Its effects would be felt differently around the world, but nowhere would be immune. Prolonged heatwaves, droughts and extreme weather events could all become increasingly common and severe. Worryingly, slow progress from governments in cutting emissions make this an uncomfortably plausible scenario. This film shows what that…
Difference Between Biomass and Biogas
Biomass and biogas are growing in popularity – if you’ll excuse the pun – in today’s ever more focused ‘green society’. So what is the difference between biomass and biogas? To understand the difference between biomass and biogas, first, you must understand biofuels. Both biomass and biogas are what’s known as biofuels. Put simply, a biofuel is a fuel that…
what is geothermal heating and cooling and how it works?
Geothermal heating and cooling, also known as geothermal HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), is an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly way to heat and cool buildings by harnessing the natural heat stored in the Earth’s crust. It takes advantage of the fact that the temperature beneath the Earth’s surface remains relatively constant throughout the year, regardless of the weather above…
The Efficiency of Power Plants in Different Types
Coal Fired Power Plants Coal based power accounts for almost 41 % of the world’s electricity generation. Coal fired power plants operate on the modified Rankine thermodynamic cycle.The efficiency is dictated by the parameters of this thermodynamic cycle. The overall coal plant efficiency ranges from 32 % to 42 %. This is mainly dictated by the Superheat and Reheat steam…
