Energy crops

27 September 2010

For hundreds of years, coal and fuel oil have been singing the Kingdom “hero.” Imagine the old coal and oil “ancestor” Since ancient times plants are then planted energy crops can do? The same as harvesting crops to “harvest” the oil it? This will be the 21st century, a new issue of common concern.

Many countries have begun “petroleum plant” and planting of, and through introduction, cultivation, and establish a new energy base of an “oil (more…)

And types of nuclear power plants

27 September 2010

Atomic reactors use a lot. From the energy point of view, atomic reactors for submarines, icebreakers and other large ships and provide the impetus, but also can be used to generate electricity and heat. Is called nuclear power plant for power generation; for heating is called nuclear heating; both power generation, it is called the nuclear thermal power station heat.

With atomic-powered power plants, known as the nuclear power plant. Atomic power generation and general thermal difference not only fuel, (more…)

Advantages of nuclear energy and safety

27 September 2010

The reason why the development of nuclear power plants so fast because it has many advantages.

First, it is an effective alternative energy sources. Small size of nuclear fuel high energy, nuclear chemistry is greater than a few hundred times. 1 kg of uranium -235 release energy equivalent to 2700 tons of standard coal, the energy released. A one million kilowatts of large-scale thermal power plants, coal 3 million per year? 4 million tons, transport the coal trains need to 2760, equivalent to eight trains a day, but also removed (more…)

History of nuclear fuel uranium cold

21 September 2010

Important raw material for uranium atomic energy industry, with its magic power of fame, much loved scientists. However, today’s leader, Xi said, there is a long history of miles out in the cold!

1789, German mineral chemistry analysts Klaproth in chemical experiments, the precipitation of a yellow precipitate, which he believes is a new element oxides. He will be such a yellow precipitate together with the carbon is heated to very high temperatures, the final state into the black metal material, Klaproth think this is a new element, named “uranit” and the second years and renamed uranium. Uranit is not a new elements? (more…)

The production of plutonium -239

21 September 2010

Is the second generation of plutonium fast breeder reactor fuel.

The second generation of reactors is a French design called the second generation of fast breeder reactors, since they gave it a nice name “Phoenix” reactor to plutonium as nuclear fuel, no moderator, and only liquid sodium as coolant (heat carrier agent). This type of breeder reactor has reached the commercialization stage. France has built an ultra-”Phoenix” type breeder reactor, used for power generation, power is 1.3 million kilowatts. France in the second-generation commercial fast breeder reactor, the leader in 10 years than any other country. Fast (more…)

Uranium nuclear fuel

13 September 2010

Within the crust of uranium ore accounts for 0.0002% of uranium content, according to geologists estimated that there are some 10 trillion tons of total reserves to 100 trillion tons, in nature can form various compounds REEs crust (including water, plants and animals) in the. Because uranium has a strong migration characteristics, looking for uranium deposits of industrial value, is quite complex and difficult task. Many (more…)

Section II of the oil, the modern industry’s “blood”

13 September 2010

Oil is a liquid mineral resources, it can be good flammability, unit heat value than coal twice as powerful than coal cleaning, and easy transportation. Oil is now the world’s industrialized countries is not only a major source of energy, but also an important industrial raw material; not only an important military supplies, but also a normal daily life necessities. Indeed, it is the modern oil industry’s “blood.”

Oil is the driving force for high-quality fuel. 1 kg of oil combustion, can produce about 40 000 Joule heat. Modern industrial, defense, transportation, oil dependence is a great aircraft, automobiles, tractors, missiles, tanks, rockets and other high-speed, large power vehicles and weapons, mainly relying on petroleum products 11 petrol diesel and kerosene as a power source.

Oil can be extracted out from a variety of lubricants and greases. The lubricant into the machinery inside, can reduce the mechanical wear and tear, protect parts, extended service life.

Oil is still important chemical raw material. The daily life of people can not do without petroleum products. Some statistics, petroleum products over 5,000 kinds have penetrated into all spheres of human life. For example, the three synthetic materials: synthetic fiber, synthetic Dell Inspiron 1300 battery plastics, synthetic rubber, are using oil as raw material, through a series of chemical processing to produce products. Department stores, colorful plastic products, an array of chemical fiber clothing and blankets, are new contributions to the oil.

According to the British “Economist” magazine, the current global proven oil reserves of 138 billion tons, of which 65% of the reserves in the Middle East, this proportion increased slightly more than 10 years ago. In the remaining proven oil reserves in North America, Europe and Latin America each hold 8%, respectively, in Africa and Asia-Pacific region has 7% and 4%.

According to statistics, to 1998, proven oil reserves in the world top 5 countries in the Middle East, followed by Saudi Arabia, Iraq, UAE, Kuwait and Iran. Which Saudi Arabia has proven oil reserves available up to 36.2 billion tons, according to the current production rate, the Middle East region has proven oil reserves can be mining 88. Formed by the Middle East oil-producing countries (OPEC) oil reserves to exploitation for 75 years.

In general, the formation of oil and gas reserves can not be estimated very accurately, because the large investment in geological exploration, and often to find oil and gas and mining profit only after 30 years. It is this very slow effective long-term projects, the global oil and gas reserves will always be just estimates.

Some energy experts say, as oil extraction technology can also increase the oil supply. Recoverable oil reserves of the general rate of 25%. Later, the people through the water or gas into the reservoir to maintain reservoir pressure, the oil reserves recoverable rate to 32%. This is called Lenovo 3000 G530 battery secondary recovery techniques. In addition, there is a recovery technology called three times, that is to steam or chemicals into the reservoir to reduce oil viscosity, allowing easy flow, increase recoverable rate. This technology is applicable with viscous oil. In individual cases, may take the rate of 80%. This technology as too expensive and not widely used at present.
