Ocean, Geothermal & Biomass Energy
Energy from the tides, hot water from the core of the earth, and plant and animal biomass are broken down in this free renewable and green power course.
This course will introduce you to alternative energy sources using ocean and geothermal energy. Study the basic concepts and types of geothermal reservoirs and tidal energy. Learn how to capture these energy sources to take advantage of their benefits before studying biomass (organic animal and plant material) as an alternative source of energy.
What You Will Learn In This Free Course
OTEC and Geothermal Energy
In this module, you will be introduced to the ocean thermal energy conversion or OTEC. This will include the principle behind OTEC operation, how it is done and what are the challenges associated with this technology. Then, you will study geothermal energy and the real possibilities of obtaining and using it effectively from the crust of the earth. Finally, you will learn about the environmental aspects involved in the extraction of geothermal energy.
Biomass A From Food Perspective
In this module, you will be introduced to the flapping process. This will include the variability of the boiling point according to atmospheric pressure. The concept of blinking and how it is done in the plant will also be discussed along with the different approaches by which biomass is currently used. Next, you will learn about biomass agriculture and how that is evaluated from an energy perspective and a food perspective.
