that my husband works in it and thought it would be interesting to know more about the process. If it is hard for those within the industry it can be even more difficult to understand for those who depend on their services and or products, which basically covers the vast majority of consumers. In order to understand the industry more completely it is necessary to break it down. The use of the supply chain process outlined in this paper helps to clarify the critical systems, their key functions, and

all things living is due to a combination of gases that collectively form the atmosphere; the imbalance caused by the increase or decrease of the percentage of these gases can be harmful for survival. The pollutants that are a direct result of the process can be called primary pollutants. A classic example of a primary pollutant would be the sulfur-dioxide emitted from factories. The effects of air pollution: 1. Respiratory and heart problems, 2. Global warming: and 3. Depletion of Ozone layer.

self-produced gas from dwindling North Sea reserves to pipeline imports from Europe and liquefied natural gas imports from overseas. There is also potential for the UK to start extracting onshore shale gas resources. Natural gas clean-up is a multi-step process with several aims including the removal of water, removal of acid gases such as CO 2 and H2S, and extraction of liquid hydrocarbons for further sale. The merits of different techniques for achieving these goals are discussed. The environmental

Energy Chapter 13 Section 13-1 WHAT IS NET ENERGY AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT? Basic science: Net energy is the only energy that really counts • The usable amount of high-quality energy available from a given quantity of an energy resource is its net energy yield: the total amount of useful energy available from an energy resource minus the energy needed to make it available to consumers. • We can express net energy as the ratio of energy produced to the energy used to produce it. As the
