7. What parameters can impact heat extraction for geothermal energy?
8. What is the purpose of Life Cycle Analysis?
9. What are the potential applications for microalgae and how can they be grown for biofuel?
What are the different system processes that are required and their advantages and
disadvantages?
10. Explain how a raceway would be used to grow microalgae. What are the commercial
bottlenecks. What are the typical growth rates and what are the requirements for
microalgal growth and implications for CO2 sequestration using microalgae (1.8 kg of
CO2 per produces 1 kg of microalgae)?
11. What is the relationship between growth rate and potential energy yield, how would you
increase the energy yield.
Emissions from coal are approximately 1 tonne of CO₂/MWh (e.g. tCO₂MWh¹)
Emissions from natural gas are about 0.5 tCO₂MWh¹¹.
