Petroleum It’s a fossil fuel formedbytheremains of sea plants and animalsthatwereburiedwithsandmillions of years ago. It’s a non-renewableenergysource.
PetroleumComposition • Main components: Carbon ( 83%) , Hydrogen ( 10%) , Nitrogen ( 0.1%-2%) , Oxygen ( 0.1% - 1.5%) and Sulphu ( 0.5% – 6%). • Under surface : Methane , Ethane , Propane and Butane like gases and Pentane like liquid or solid. • Crude oil : Paraffin's ( 15% to 60%) , Napthenes ( 30 % to 60 ) , Aromatics ( 3% to 30 % ) and Asphaltic .
PetroleumFormation • Petroleum is a fossil fuel. • First : huge quantities of organic material settled on the sea and being buried. • Then in the decomposition , bacteria clean the remain of some chemicals and later we obtain the raw material for the formation of petroleum. To obtain it , it has to spend a lot of time.
Petroleum History
Petroleum Uses
EnviromentalEffects • Petroleum is a natural substance of the Earth so it mustn’t contaminate but with some accidents and routine activities like extraction, refining, combustion … it contaminates and produces some environments effects. • Global warming • Oil Spills • An advantage of petroleum
Petroleum production’sFuture • The production of petroleum will continue growing until petroleum reservoirs don’t have more and what we are going to have to do is start to moderate our consumption toward the oil or that when it runs out , we have to use another type of energy as effective as the oil.
Natural Gas • Natural gas is a natural form of hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting of methane and carbon dioxide. • It is use like important energy
Whereisitfound ? • Natural gas is found in deep underground natural rock formations or in other hydrocarbon reservoirs, in coal beds…
Howweobtain natural gas ? • Before use natural gas as a fuel, it must be process to clean the gas and remove impurities including water. • We can obtain natural gas through process of decomposition of organic rests or of plants
Advantages and disadvantages of Natural Gas • Natural gas produces much less CO2 that other fuels • Natural gas is versatile • The CO2 contributes to Global warming and produces the greenhouse effect but it absorbs infrared rays that are emitted into space and it makes slower the nocturnal cooling of the planet.
