Tobacco Leaves and Seaweed in the Production of Fuel

Tobacco Leaves and Seaweed in the Production of Fuel

Introduction

Fuel is referred as any material that is able to release or discharge energy when its physical or chemical structure is altered. It is often observed that the fuel emits or discharges energy either in chemical manner including burning. Fuel may also releases energy through nuclear means like, process of nuclear fusion or nuclear fission. Therefore, fuels are referred as any materials that accumulate latent energy in particular forms that can be practicably used and released as heat energy. It is often observed that this concept specifically applied to those resources who store energy in the form of chemical energy. These materials often release heat energy through the process of combustion. On the other hand, this concept can also be applied on the materials or sources that store energy in the form of nuclear energy. These materials often release energy through the nuclear processes, nuclear fusion or nuclear fission (Mouritsen, 2013).

It is often observed that the combustion of these materials may cause several environmental and health issues. The combustion of these resources are considered as the main reason of global warming, it is because of the reason that, it may greatly affect the environmental conditions. In order to overcome all these issues, technologists and researchers have introduced latest and innovative ways of producing fuel. Those methods may include the production of fuel through tobacco leaves and seaweed (Israel, et.al., 2010).

The proceeding paper demonstrates the actual concept of fuel along with the process of manufacturing fuel. The proceeding paper also incorporates all the negative impacts of the fuel, which is produced by the conventional methods. The paper also demonstrates the methods of producing fuel through seaweed and tobacco leaves, along with all the advantages and benefits.

Discussion

What is Fuel?

Fuel is referred as any material that emits, releases or discharges energy when its physical or chemical structure is changed. It is often observed that, fuel discharges its energy either through chemical or nuclear means. The chemical means may include combustion or burning. The nuclear means may include nuclear fusion or nuclear fission. It is often observed that the combustion of fuel may cause several environmental and health issues. Recent researches and surveys show that energy and fuel engineers have developed and researched the ways to enhance the procedures of producing fuel (Triantafyllidis, et.al., 2013). This may greatly help them in minimizing the environmental impacts while managing the usage of fuel and energy. The process of producing fuel is briefly described in the proceeding discussion.

Production of Fuel

It is often observed that the most used fuel is petrol. It is commonly used in the industries, automobiles and in the production areas. Researches and surveys show that petrol is achieved from crude oil. It can easily be obtained by the process of fractional distillation and successive mixing of some of the materials, in order to get the desired and useful properties. It is often observed that some ...
