 What is Fossil Fuel?
One of the example of Fuel Cell
Is a source of non-renewable energy.
Are fuels formed by natural processes such as anaerobic decomposition of
buried dead organisms.
Coal Mining and Oil Extraction
Chemical to Electrical Energy Conversion
 How Fossil Fuel Work?
1. Coal is a form of fossil fuel that is formed due to decay of old plants
millions of years before.
- Is used extensively in thermal power plants for generation of
electricity and production of steel.
 2. Oil
- The increasing pressure and heat inside the earth resulted in the formation of oil that
is lying deep beneath the rocks and available abundantly mostly in Middle Eastern
countries.
 3. Natural Gas
is a by product of oil production. It is serving us as one of the major sources
of energy for domestic gas supply.
These natural gases which mostly consist of methane and ethane are
captured before they are released.
