Energy Sources and Uses
• Energy - The capacity to do work.• Work - Application of force through a distance. • Power - Rate at which work is done or rate of flow
of energy.Units of energy– Joule - Amount of work done when a force of
1 Newton is exerted over 1 meter (or about 0.238cal).
– Calorie - Amount of energy necessary to heat 1 gram of water 1oC.
– Watt - 1 joule/sec3

Per Capita/yr Energy Use and GDP
Source: Massachusetts Institute of Technology
The higher the standard of living, the greater the use of energy.United States: 5% of the world’s population, uses about 20% of the total energy

Per Capita Consumption
• On average, each person in the U.S. and Canada uses more than 300 GJ of energy annually.
• In poorest countries of the world, each person generally consumes less than one GJ annually.
• Richest 20 countries consume annually :– nearly 80% of natural gas,
– 65% of oil, and
– 50% of coal production.

How We Use Energy in the US• Industry - 33%• Residential, commercial buildings - 38%• Transportation - 27%• About 50% of all the energy in primary fuels is lost
– during conversion to more useful forms (eg, 2/3 energy of coal lost in thermal conversion, ie, combustion),
– while being shipped to the site of end use, or (eg, 10% energy lost in transmission lines)
– during use.
• Natural gas is our most efficient fossil fuel (10% lost during processing & shipping, 75-95% efficient in furnaces).

What is a Resource?
Source of raw material
used by society
16
How can it be used sustainably?
![Page 17: Ch 10 Energy Energy Sources and Uses Coal - Oil - Natural Gas Nuclear Power Conservation Solar Energy –Photovoltaic Cells Fuel Cells Energy From Biomass](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649de95503460f94ae35d3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Resource Management
Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) is :
harvest rate = renewal rate
17
![Page 18: Ch 10 Energy Energy Sources and Uses Coal - Oil - Natural Gas Nuclear Power Conservation Solar Energy –Photovoltaic Cells Fuel Cells Energy From Biomass](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649de95503460f94ae35d3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
IF the
Harvest rate > Renewable rate
Then the renewable resource can become
Depleted in the short term18

Fossil Fuels
• Fossil fuels - organic chemicals that were created by living organisms millions of years ago, buried in sediments, and transformed into energy-rich compounds
• Because fossil fuels take so long to form, they are essentially nonrenewable resources.

Coal Extraction and Use• Mining & drainage -
dangerous to humans and the environment
• Coal burning releases large amounts of air pollution (CO2, SO2, NOx , dust, heavy metals, etc), and is the largest single source of acid rain in many areas.
• Economic damages - billions of dollars

• One of the largest and most controversial strip mines is at Black Mesa, Arizona
• Partially located on Hopi Indian land• Relies on non-renewable 10,000 year old
groundwater to transport coal slurry

Oil Extraction and Use• The Middle East control two-thirds of all known
oil reserves.
• The U.S. has already used up about 40% of its original recoverable petroleum resource.– Drilling - soil and water pollution
– Combustion - substantial air pollution
– Controversies – ANWR, Coastal Drilling

Natural Gas Consumption
• Natural gas produces only half as much CO2 as an energy-equivalent amount of coal.
• Problems: – difficult to ship
across oceans or to store in large quantities
– Flaring off - wasted

Nuclear Power
• “Atoms for Peace” in 1953 by Eisenhower (produce enough power ‘to cheap to monitor’)
• Nuclear power now produces only about 7% of the U.S. energy supply.
• Problems have made nuclear power much less attractive than was originally expected :
– construction costs and
– safety concerns and….
– waste disposal.28

Nuclear EnergyTwo types of nuclear power & both involve
rearranging the structure of the atom.– Fission - splitting of a radioactive isotope of a heavy
element into daughter products (smaller atoms) with the release of energy
– Fusion - joining of isotopes of a light element into a heavier element with the release of energy.
• All commercial energy generation is run by fission.
• The Sun generates heat and light by fusion.
• Some nuclear weapons use fusion reactions but controlled fusion is still in the developmental stage.

Chernobyl - 1986
Accidents???

Public alarm but was under control.
Reactors in US are different than the one in Chernobyl
and are MUCH safer!!
Bad accident!!! Also poor reactor design
Three Mile Island - 1979

Nuclear Wastes
• One of the most difficult problems associated with nuclear power is the disposal of wastes produced during mining, fuel production, reactor operation, and decommissioning of reactors.
• Ocean dumping – until 1970?
• Radioactive mine wastes, mill tailings
• Dry cask storage
• High-level waste repository - Yucca Mountain, NV??
• Monitored, retrievable storage?

• Hanford buried radioactive waste which began leaking, esp into the ground water & Columbia River. Shut down in 1960s.
• Nuclear testing peaks in 1950-60s. Trees absorb cesium which accumulates in
wood.
Plant roots absorbed the radioactive material and transported it to the ground surface.
Wood ash from trees growing during this time period can be radioactive – 100X higher cesium than other environmental samples.

• Utilization Efficiencies– Most potential energy in fuel is lost as
– In response to 1970’s oil prices, average US automobile gas-mileage increased from 13 mpg in 1975 to 28.8 mpg in 1988.
–Falling fuel prices of the 1980’s discouraged further conservation.

Energy Conversion Efficiencies
• Energy Efficiency is a measure of energy produced compared to energy consumed.– Household energy losses can be reduced by
one-half to three-fourths by using better insulation, double-paned glass, protective covers, and general sealing procedures.(Indoor Pollution?)• Orient homes to gain advantage of passive
solar gain in the winter.40
