1.2(a) OZONE LAYER DEPLETION
• The ozone layer is a concentration of ozone molecules in the stratosphere. About 90% of the planet's ozone is in the ozone layer
• The ozone depletion process begins when CFCs and other ozone-depleting substances (ODS) are emitted into the atmosphere
• It is caused by the release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and other ozone-depleting substances (ODS), which were used widely as refrigerants, insulating foams, and solvents.
• A diminished ozone layer allows more radiation to reach the Earth's surface. For people, over exposure to UV rays can lead to skin cancer, cataracts, and weakened immune systems. Increased UV can also lead to reduced crop yield and disruptions in the marine food chain . (Ref: )

1.2(b) Global Warming
• Green House Effect
• GHGs
GREEN HOUSE EFFECT
• Glass transmits over 90 percent of radiation in the visible range but not the longer-wavelength (infrared regions)
• Radiation emitted by surfaces at room temperature falls in the infrared region.
• Consequently glass allows the solar radiation to enter but does not allow the infrared radiation from the interior surfaces to escape.
• This causes a rise in the interior temperature as a result of the energy buildup known as the greenhouse effect,
GREEN HOUSE EFFECT
• The greenhouse effect is also experienced on a larger scale on earth.
• The surface of the earth, which warms up during the day as a result of the absorption of solar energy, cools down at night by radiating its energy into deep space as infrared radiation.
• The combustion gases such as CO2 and water vapor in the atmosphere transmit the bulk of the solar radiation but absorb the infrared radiation emitted by the surface of the earth.
• Thus, there is concern that the energy trapped on earth will eventually cause global warming and thus drastic changes in weather patterns.
GREEN HOUSE EFFECT
GHGs
• The major greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and ozone (O3). Atmospheric water vapour (H2O) also makes a large contribution to the natural greenhouse
• Global atmospheric concentrations of CO2, CH4 and N2O have increased markedly as a result of human activities since 1750 and now far exceed pre-industrial values
• The global increases in CO2 concentration are due primarily to fossil fuel use and land-use change, while those of CH4 and N2O are primarily due to agricultural/industrial activities.

1.3 RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES
RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES
• Renewable energy is energy which comes from natural resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal heat, biomass etc. which are renewable (naturally replenished).
• In 2010, only about 18% of global final energy consumption came from renewables (Ref: )
WIND ENERGY FOR ELECTRICAL POWER GENERATION
• Airflows can be used to run wind turbines. • Modern wind turbines range from around
600 kW to 5 MW of rated power. Turbines with rated output of 1.5–3 MW have become the most common for commercial use.
• In Malaysia, wind energy is not technically commercially viable resource due to low average wind speed. – may be used in micro application.
DIRECT SOLAR ENERGY
• Solar energy could be harnessed by: Actively -Photovoltaic (PV) cells, or Passively (absorbed by building materials etc)
• Although solar energy is sufficient to meet the entire energy needs of the world, currently it is not economical to do so because of the low concentration of solar energy on earth ( W/m2) and the high capital cost of harnessing it due to low conversion efficiency.
• High potential from emerging technologies
Biomass
• Biomass - (plant material, non-fossil), organic materials which can be burned to produce energy or converted into fuels or other products.
• Biomass is a renewable energy source because the energy it contains comes from the sun. Through the process of photosynthesis, plants capture the sun's energy.
BIOMASS & BIOFUEL
Two approaches to biomass as fuel :
• growing plants specifically for energy or using the residue from plants used for other things.
• as bio-fuel for petroleum subtitute
GEO-THERMAL
Geothermal
• Geothermal energy is energy obtained by tapping the heat of the earth itself, either from kilometers deep into the Earth's crust, or in some places of the globe from some meters, in geothermal heat pump
HYDRO
Hydro
• Hydroelectric energy is a term usually reserved for large-scale hydroelectric dams .
• Micro hydro systems are hydroelectric power installations that typically produce up to 100 kW of power .
• Ocean energy describes all the technologies to harness energy from the ocean/sea. This includes marine current power, ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC), and tidal power.
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Sustainable Development
• Sustainable development is a pattern of resource use that aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for future generations.
• Sustainable development can be
conceptually devided into three constituent parts: environmental sustainability, economic sustainability and sociopolitical sustainability
Energy RecoveryEnergy Recovery
• Most heat engines convert only approximately 20% to 50% of the Most heat engines convert only approximately 20% to 50% of the supplied energy into mechanical work whereas the remaining supplied energy into mechanical work whereas the remaining energy is lost.energy is lost.
• Many scope for technologies to recover wasted energy that takes Many scope for technologies to recover wasted energy that takes the form of heat discharge from exhaust or cooling water, the form of heat discharge from exhaust or cooling water, unburned fuel and thermal transfer. unburned fuel and thermal transfer.
• There are many waste heat recovery systems which were designed There are many waste heat recovery systems which were designed and used on large scale power generators. For example, some and used on large scale power generators. For example, some industries that use process heat and consume a large amount of industries that use process heat and consume a large amount of electrical power exploit a cogeneration plant in their Rankine or electrical power exploit a cogeneration plant in their Rankine or Brayton engine cycle. Brayton engine cycle.
• Another method of optimising energy recovery in industrial power Another method of optimising energy recovery in industrial power generator is by topping the Brayton engine cycle on Rankine generator is by topping the Brayton engine cycle on Rankine engine cycle. In this combined cycle, the latent energy from the engine cycle. In this combined cycle, the latent energy from the gas turbine exhaust is recovered by transferring to the steam gas turbine exhaust is recovered by transferring to the steam energy in a waste heat exchanger (WHE) that has replaced the energy in a waste heat exchanger (WHE) that has replaced the boiler.boiler. 89

End of IntroductionEnd of Introduction
• Renewable energy is the manifestation of solar energy in different forms.Such energy sources include wind energy, hydroelectric power, ocean thermal-energy, ocean wave energy, and wood. For example, no hydroelectric powerplant can generate electricity year after year unless the water evaporates by absorbing solar energy and comes back as a rainfall to replenish the water source.
• Although solar energy is sufficient to meet the entire energy needsof the world, currently it is not economical to do so because of the low concentration of solar energy on earth and the high capital cost of harnessing it.
