  • fossil fuels
    • a hydrocarbon (CH4) which contains coal, oil, natural gas

    • a hydrocarbon (CH4) which contains coal, oil, natural gas
  • formation of fossil fuels
    • naturally in Earths crust from remains of diatoms (plants and animals) that is extracted and burned as fuel
    • from ancient plants and organisms during Carboniferous Period
    • through decomposition of matter under specific conditions

  • combustion
    • CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
    • reaction when susbatance reacts with oxygen
    • releases light and heat energy
    • types of scales are small (candle) and large (fireworks)

  • forms of fossil fuels
    1. coal
    2. oil
    3. natural gas
  • formation of coal
    1. before dinasaurs, plants died in swamps
    2. overtime, water and dirt covered the plants
    3. resulting heat and pressure turned plants to coal

  • formation of oil and natural gas
    1. plants and animals died in the ocean
    2. overtime, water, sand and silt covered the remains
    3. resulting heart and pressure turned the remains to oil and natural gas
    4. today, we drill through, sand, silt and rock to reach rock formations that contain deposits

    • is a combustible sedimentary rock
    • contains energy stored by plants that lived in swampy forests

  • semirara mining corporation
    • largest coal producer in the philippines
    • main mine is located in Semirara Island
    • according to department of energy, it produces 92% of the countrys coal

  • classification of coal as heat and carbon content increases
    1. peat (not a coal)
    2. lignite (brown coal)
    3. bituminous (soft coal)
    4. anthracite (hard coal)
  • classification of coal as heat and carbon content increases
    1. peat (not a coal)
    2. lignite (brown coal)
    3. bituminous (soft coal)
    4. anthracite (hard coal)
  • classification of coal
    1. peat partially is decayed plant in swamps
    2. lignite has limited supply
    3. bituminous is extensively used as fuel because of large supply and high heat content
    4. anthracite is a highly desirable fuel because of high heat content and low sulfur content

  • malampaya gas field
    • a deep water gas to power project
    • located 50 km Northwest of Palawan
    • produced 1456 billion cubic ft of gas per year
    • biggest success story in the philippine energy sectro because it signaled the birth of natural gas industry in the country
