Energy and its tranformations, Types - Coggle Diagram

- - - - The turbine converts mechanical energy into the rotating movement of a shaft
      - An alternator has a fixed part, called a stator, and a moving part, called a rotor, connected to the turbine shaft
  - - - Increasing the voltage to 220 000 V or 400 000 V to prevent signif«.ant energy loss, due to the Joule effect
      - Transporting it by high voltage cable~ attached to towers
      - Decreasing the voltage at the electncity substations to 3-30 kV
      - Distnbution to homes, offices, industnes and public faolities Dunng this srage, the voltage is reduced to 230-400 V
- - - - Uranium ts the main fuel used
  - - - The steam that's generated moves the turbine connected to the generator
  - - - Depending on the destination of the water, hydraulic power plants are divided into two types, gravity or pump
- - - - Forestry and agricultural waste
      - pecific crops, such as sunflowers and cougar beet.
      - kyraste from agri-food industries
  - - - The mechanical energy from the tides.
      - The mechanical energy from the wave
      - The energy from the ocean's thermal gradient
- - - - Install special filters on the pipes at the power plant to capture some of the gas pollutants
      - Use coal with a low sulphur content, to reduce acid ram
      - Maintain and increase the size of large forested areas, since they absorb carbon dioxide
      - Waste from nuclear power plants is stored in drums with thick ~ide~ that do not let the nuclear radiation escape These are then stored in ocean trenches and underground.
