Oil shale which is also known as Kerogen Shale is an organic rock from which shale oil is produced. This is popular as a substitute of crude oil but extracting shale oil from oil shale is costly method than processing of crude oil. Deposits of this oil are found around the world which is after […]
Nuclear Energy / Radio Active Fuel
What is nuclear energy? Nuclear energy is the energy that comes from core of an atom and is non-renewable source of energy. Atoms are relatively tiny parts and are enormous source of energy which is released after breaking the bonds that nucleus of atom holds. Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are two best ways used […]
Energy from Natural Gas
How natural gas formed? Natural gas is mixture of methane, with other hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and hydrogen sulfide that occur naturally and turned in hydrocarbon gas. This is a non-renewable source of energy including heat and electricity. Today we use it to cook food, to run our vehicles and in some organic chemicals. This […]
Energy from Petrol and Oil
There are different natural ways to get energy and generate electricity or other kinds of energy; some are renewable while others are non-renewable sources. Non-renewable sources are those natural sources which human cannot reproduce or grow within specific time period. These resources are today used on scale which can sustain their consumption rate and once […]
Energy from Coal
Coal is a combustible black or brownish color rock in form of layers called coal beds. This rock is composed of carbon and hydrocarbon elements and is most abundant fossil fuel produced in the world. Coal takes million of years to create therefore it is considered a non-renewable source of energy. Energy in the coal […]
What is non-renewable energy?
Energy is counted as most important part of everyone’s life because appliances that we use in daily life work because of electricity. To get energy different resources are used, some of them are renewable energy sources, while others are non-renewable. Non-renewable resources are also natural sources which are used to produce electricity. But these natural […]
What is Hydropower?
Hydropower is a renewable source of generated electricity, the production of electrical power is based on gravitational force of water flowing or falling on the ground. In easy terms it is also known as water power and is used from ancient times to operate different devices in watermills, textile mills and domestic lifts etc. Industrial […]
What is Biomass Bio Energy?
Biomass is a great source of renewable energy and is gathered from biological materials. This energy source can be used directly to get power of it can be converted in some other forms of energy like biofuel. This organic material stores sunlight in form of chemical energy and advantage of these products is that they […]
What is biofuel?
Biofuel is a renewable source of energy used to generate electricity or power. This is a type of fuel which gathers energy from biological carbon fixation. Different sources are used to collect biofuel like solid biomass, liquid fuel and biogases etc. Biofuels gained popularity among public after rapid increase in oil and electricity prices, another […]
Geothermal energy – The renewable energy source
With passage of time demand for renewable energy sources is rising and we are also trying to find alternatives of non-renewable sources. Geothermal energy is also famous type of renewable energy sources and is gathered from heat that comes from the earth. Earth is great source of heat at certain points where it combines with […]
