UNIT 3 – ENERGY AND POWERTopic 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?

Why a watermark of the Sun?
The Sun is the source of all energy on Earth.
Topic 1
Energy Sources – Fuels
IOT
POLY ENGINEERING3-1
1. Energy is NOT fuel used for transportation and heating, for lights and appliances, and foods for consumption.
FUEL ENERGY2. Fuels are a source of energy.3. Fuels are the material source of energy,
containing it as a potential.

Topic 1
Energy Sources – Fuels
IOT
POLY ENGINEERING3-1
1. 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 petroleum5. Nonvolatile: coal
Non-Renewable Fuels – Fossil Fuels
IOT
POLY ENGINEERING3-1
Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal1. Coal is formed from the remains of terrestrial
plants that died around 350 million years ago. 2. Plant remains preserved in water and mud.

Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal
1. 4,000 B.C.E. – China carved ornaments2. 2,000 B.C.E. – funeral pyres in Britain3. 1,200s C.E. – underground mining developed

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.

Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal
Methods of ExtractionUnderground 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 ENGINEERING3-1
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

Non-Renewable Fuels – Natural Gas
1. Sea plants and animals died, were buried on the ocean floor, covered by layers of silt and sand.
2. 50-100 million years – remains buried deeper.3. Heat and pressure turned remains into oil and gas.
IOT

Non-Renewable Fuels – Natural Gas
1. Often referred to as “gas”2. Gaseous fuel consisting mostly of methane, but
includes quantities of other hydrocarbonsHydrocarbons are molecules made up of H and C
CH4 – Methane C3H8 – Propane
IOT
POLY ENGINEERING3-1
Non-Renewable Fuels – Natural Gas
Methods of Extraction1. Associated – found in oil fields2. Non-associated – found in natural gas fields3. Coalbed Methane – found in coal beds4. Before use, it must undergo processing to remove
everything but methane (such as CO2, N2, H2)
IOT
POLY ENGINEERING3-1
Non-Renewable Fuels – Natural Gas
Methods of Extraction1. Geologists locate types of rock that are known to
contain gas and oil deposits.Seismic surveys – echoes from a vibration source
2. Drilling begins, whether on land or offshore.3. NG flows up the well to the surface.4. Goes to processing or directly to transport pipeline5. NG is colorless, odorless, tasteless, so a chemical is
added to give it odor – Mercaptan
IOT

Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal
Storage and Transport
• NG is moved by pipelines from fields to consumers.• NG demand is greater in winter for heat – stored in
underground storage systemsOld oil and gas wells, caverns formed in old salt beds
• Can be cooled (-260 deg F) to Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)
• LNG can be transported in tankers over the ocean

Non-Renewable Fuels – Coal
Uses - HOME• NG makes up 22% of fuel consumption in U.S.• ~63% homes use for stoves, furnaces, water
heaters, dryers, and other appliances.• NG is raw material for:
• Paints, fertilizers, plastics, antifreeze, dyes, photographic film, medicines, explosives
• Propane – barbecue grills
