What are the fossil energy sources?

Question 1: What are the fossil fuels Cite five Oh New energy is relative to conventional energy, in order to adopt new technologies and new materials and obtain, based on new technologies and systematic development and utilization of energy, such as solar energy, wind energy, ocean energy, geothermal energy, etc.

Fossil fuels are mainly conventional energy, such as coal, oil, natural gas

Question 2: How many types of fossil fuels are there?

Fossil fuels are mainly conventional energy sources, such as coal, oil, natural gas

Question 2: How many types of fossil energy There are several types of fossil energy! Primary energy: natural energy resources such as coal, oil, nuclear energy; Secondary energy: man-made energy resources such as gasoline, electricity, steam, etc. Fossil energy is polluting! Fossil fuels are polluting! Fossil fuels contain elements such as sulfur, which produces sulfur dioxide, which creates acid rain, which produces carbon dioxide, which creates the greenhouse effect, and fossil fuels are non-renewable, which leads to energy depletion.

Question 3: What are the most common types of fossil fuels? Oil, natural gas, coal

Question 4: What are fossil fuels? Fossil fuels, also known as fossil fuels, are hydrocarbons or their derivatives. The natural resources included in fossil fuels are coal, oil and natural gas. The use of fossil fuels has enabled large-scale industrial development and the replacement of watercraft, and the burning of wood or peat for heating. (Spanish bustible Fósil)

When electricity is generated, the process of burning fossil fuels creates energy that drives a turbine to produce power. Older generators would use steam as the fuel to push the turbine. Nowadays, many power stations use gas turbine engines directly.

At the pace of global modernization in the 20th and 21st centuries, fossil fuels, especially gasoline derived from oil, were a potential source of energy shortages and a cause of the global oil crisis. Now, there is a global trend towards renewable energy and nuclear power, which can help to increase the world's energy needs.

The continuous burning of fossil fuels is one of the sources of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and one of the factors accelerating global warming. In addition, the carbon dioxide content of biofuels comes from the atmosphere, so the development of biofuels can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, thus reducing the greenhouse effect.

Until now, the fuels used in countries around the world have been almost exclusively fossil fuels, i.e., oil, natural gas, and coal. Fossil fuels, which have been gradually formed by nature over millions of years, may be completely exhausted by human beings in a few hundred years. Observations and studies have shown that there is no coal or oil in the ground today. Petroleum, also known as crude oil, is a yellow to black flammable viscous liquid, often stored with natural gas***, and is a very complex mixture. The properties of petroleum are different depending on the origin, density, viscosity and freezing point are very different, for example, the freezing point of some as high as 30 ℃, some as low as -66 ℃. The calorific value from 43.7 ~ 46.2MJ / kg. The boiling point of the components of the oil also varies greatly, from 25 ℃ to more than 500 ℃. The main elements in petroleum are carbon and hydrogen, accounting for 83-87% and 11-14% respectively. In addition, it also contains a small amount of sulfur (0.06-8%), nitrogen (0.02-1.7%), oxygen (0.08-1.8%) and trace metal elements (nickel, vanadium, iron, copper). Natural gas, in a broader sense, is a generic term for naturally occurring gases buried in the earth. But usually referred to as natural gas only refers to the storage in the deeper part of the combustible gas (gaseous fossil fuels) and with the oil **** storage of gas (often referred to as oilfield associated gas). The main component of natural gas is methane. In addition, depending on the geological conditions, it contains different amounts of low carbon alkanes such as ethane, propane, butane, pentane, hexane, etc., as well as non-hydrocarbons such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen, and sulfur compounds. Some fields also contain helium. Natural gas with high methane content is called dry gas, and natural gas with high alkane content of two or more carbon atoms is called wet gas. Natural gas is abundant in Zigong, Sichuan Province, China. Coal, also known as coal, is a solid combustible mineral buried underground. Coal is a mixture, there is no single molecular structure, after a long time of research by scientists, there has been a common type of coal structure introduced. There are a large number of rings of carbon atoms in the structure of coal, some of them are thickened with each other, and some of them are bonded into long chains. There is a common model of the structure of bituminous coal by W.H. Wiser, but it has not yet revealed the substantial structure of coal. The organic elements in coal are mainly carbon, followed by hydrogen, and oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur.
