IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1 U NIT 3 – E NERGY AND P OWER Topic 1: Energy Sources – Power Plants and Fuels FUEL: a material used to produce heat or power Most of the following are power plants – what is the fuel shown/used in each image?

IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1 The Sun is the source of all energy on Earth. Topic 1 Energy Sources – Fuels What is the source of all energy on earth?

IOT POLY ENGINEERING Energy is NOT fuel used for transportation and heating, for lights and appliances, and foods for consumption. FUELENERGY 2.Fuels are a source of energy. 3.Fuels are the material source of energy, containing it as a potential. Fuels and Energy – What is the difference? COPY NOTES Energy Sources – Fuels

IOT POLY ENGINEERING Non-renewable 1.Fossil Fuels Coal, Natural Gas, Petroleum (Oil) 2.Nuclear – Uranium ore 2.Renewable Biofuels, Biomass, Geothermal, Hydro, Solar, Tidal, Wave, Wind Fuel Types Topic 1 Energy Sources – Fuels

IOT POLY ENGINEERING Fossil fuels are burned to release stored energy. 2.Formed from the heated and pressurized remains of dead plant and animal life over hundreds of millions of years. 3.Non-renewable – millions of years to form and reserves are being depleted faster than new ones are being formed. 4.Volatile: natural gas and petroleum 5.Nonvolatile: coal THE FACTS: Non-Renewable Fuels – Fossil Fuels

IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1 Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal 1.Coal is formed from the remains of terrestrial plants that died around 350 million years ago. 2.Plant remains preserved in water and mud. Heat and Pressure

IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1 Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal 1.4,000 B.C.E. – China carved ornaments 2.2,000 B.C.E. – funeral pyres in Britain 3.1,200s C.E. – underground mining developed

IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1 Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal History of Extraction and Use Colliery (COLL-yer-ee) – a coal mine and its connected buildings. Coal must be cleaned and refined (improved) after extraction South Wales, Great Britain – oldest known colliery. First commercial coal mining in U.S. in 1730s, VA. Prior to 1880s, coal was picked by hand underground. By 1912, surface mining was used.

IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1 Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal (2) Methods of Extraction Underground Mining: 60% of world production 33% of U.S. mining Uses timber for support tunnel Machines enter and extract coal Surface (Strip) Mining: More coal extracted than underground mining Exposes coal by removing land above deposits IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1

IOT POLY ENGINEERING 3-1 Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal Uses Coal is mostly used as a solid fuel to produce electricity and heat through combustion. It is usually pulverized (crushed into small particles) then burned in a furnace for electricity generation at a power plant. ~40% of world’s electricity comes from coal ~49% of U.S. electricity comes from coal
