An alternative energy source.
Most solid animal waste has a high methane content (especially if cows are considered). If there was an effective way to siphon out the methane from the remainder of the waste, that methane could be used in place of natural gas. However, with current technology, animal waste is not a useful source of energy.
Animal or human waste is an organic solid that can be easily used to produce methane (a fuel gas) by anaerobic digestion. Each kilogram of biodegradable material yields 400 liters of gas. This gas is frequently generated and used to power sewage treatment plants or as a fuel source on livestock farms.
nuclear power,fossil energy and alternative energy.
Fossil fuels are exhaustible. Electric energy is an alternative.
It is not a fossil fuel it is a renewable energy source
No, coal is not an alternative energy source. "Alternative" energy sources means energy sources other than fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas).
Solar energy is a potential alternative for fossil fuels. It is a renewable source of energy and will be available as long as the sun lasts.
alternative resource or just alternative
an alternative
Alternative energy refers to any source of energy that is different from traditional fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. Examples of alternative energy sources include solar, wind, hydropower, geothermal, and biomass. These sources are often considered more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
yes
Usually an "alternative energy source" is one that is not now a major contributor to our energy supplies. That would make "alternative energy" anything that is not based on fossil fuels of one sort or another. Some people exclude nuclear energy from the "alternative" universe
- no air pollution - no greenhouse effects - no fossil fuel - the most important alternative source of energy - it is the energy of the future
Any energy source that is an alternative to fossil fuels. They are used to avoid the damages that fossil fuels do to our environment such as: Carbon dioxide emissions which leads to global warming and acid rain.
