Energy from Volcanoes Flashcards
Volcanic Gases (WV, CD, SD, HS, H)
Water Vapor, Carbon Dioxide, Sulfur Dioxide, Hydrogen Sulfide, Halides
Plant nutrients that create fertile farmlands
Potassium and Phosphorus
Heat produced from deep beneath the surface of the Earth where magma is near the surface
Geothermal energy
Bring a mixture of steam and hot water to the surface (magma heats rock which heats up underground water)
Geothermal reservoirs
Type of geologic formation wherein it contains hot water and or steam trapped in fractured or porous rock formations by a layer of impermeable rock on top.
a. Hydrothermal reservoir
b. Geo-pressurized resources
c. Hot dry rock reservoirs
d. Magma
Hydrothermal reservoir
Type of geologic formation wherein it involves formations where moderately high temperature brines are trapped in a permeable layer of rock under high pressures.
a. Hydrothermal reservoir
b. Geo-pressurized resources
c. Hot dry rock reservoirs
d. Magma
Geo-pressurized resources
Type of geologic formation wherein hot impermeable rocks at depths shallow enough to be accessible.
a. Hydrothermal reservoir
b. Geo-pressurized resources
c. Hot dry rock reservoirs
d. Magma
Hot dry rock reservoirs
Type of geologic formation wherein it is the largest geothermal resource. Its great depth and high temperature makes the resource difficult to access and harness.
a. Hydrothermal reservoir
b. Geo-pressurized resources
c. Hot dry rock reservoirs
d. Magma
Magma
Hot springs, cooking, heating system, electricity
Uses
Industrial facility that generates electricity from primary energy
Power plant
Type of power plant in which is steam is directly piped to the power plant from underground wells where it is directed into a turbine-generator unit.
a. Dry Steam (Geyser) Plants
b. Flash Steam Power Plants
c. Binary Cycle Power Plants
Dry Steam (Geyser) Plants
Type of power plant in which high-pressure hot water from deep inside the Earth converted to steam; when the steam cools, it condenses to water and is injected back into the ground to be used again.
a. Dry Steam (Geyser) Plants
b. Flash Steam Power Plants
c. Binary Cycle Power Plants
Flash Steam Power Plants
Type of power plant in which water is pumped into heat exchanger where a second liquid is heated.
a. Dry Steam (Geyser) Plants
b. Flash Steam Power Plants
c. Binary Cycle Power Plants
