Wind energy vs oil shale

To: Environmental protection agency From: Subject: Wind power versus oil shale Date: September 22 Wind power vs oil shale Introduction The purpose of this report is to analyse if wind power is better than power which is produced from oil shale. The report is based on EWPA (Estonian Wind Power Association) article which is published on their web page. Wind power It is said that the wind power is the most expensive source of power, but this statement is not plausible, because the recourse -wind- is for free. Calculations have shown that if new oil shale blocks were built, it would cost 3473 million EEK in a year per capita. On the other hand, if wind power were renewed in similar amount, it would cost only 868 million EEK per

Environmental problems in Estonia

Good afternoon, i talk about environmental problems in Estonia. ­ plakatile ei kirjuta :D Main environmental problems in estonia: · Oil shale mining and burning · Excessive tree felling · Air pollution · Eutrophication Oil shale mining and burning. Estonia environmental problems are mostly caused by oil shale mining and burning. About 30 000 Hectare ground is unusable. We have a large ash mountains thanks to burning of oil shale. To reduce pollution we need to decrease mining of oil shale and shale-based electricity producing. Air pollution the biggest air pollution is in large cities. It´s caused by big factories, a lot cars and deficient environment ordinance. To decrease air pollution we need to use less cars and more public transport. Eutrophication ­ It means water enrichment of nutrient. In eutrophic water there is less oxygen and water quality low. There are some things to improve it:

Life in Estonia through the eyes of an economics student

differently but I am not sure is it because of TUT or not. Through my entire life I have seen Estonia as a strong and fast growing country which is also a fact because Estonian economy was one of the fastest growing in the world until 2006 with growth rates even exceeding 10% annually. I find it being quite impressive. There are some fields which Estonia can fill with supplies by itself. We are nearly energy independent country, supplying over 90% of our electricity need with locally mined oil shale. Estonia has also an alternative energy sources such as wood and peat. I could call myself earth friendly because I love walking around the forest and breading some fresh air but I do not like the knowing that somewhere else our own people are cutting down the trees and mining oil shale for eleritcity and warmth but I know that we need those two things to survive and it does not make any different if we cut the trees in Estonia or in Finland.

My interest in chemical technology

18.09.2012 Mari-Liis Eha 120876KAKB My interest in chemical engineering I studied for 3 years in an english-science biased class in secondary school. My favourite subjects were chemistry and biology. We had many field trips. For instance, we had field trip to Kohtla-Järve to see the oil shale industry and also tours to see the wind generators. This is where my attraction to environment and chemistry grew together and I wanted to know more about further job and education opportunities in this field. I had a chance to be a job shadower at a company called ,,Orto", which is a chemical industry. One of the employees who I was shadowing had learned food chemistry and the other employee chemistry and environment. The job was truly fascinating and based on their

Enivornment in Estonia - Problems and solutions

Environment in Estonia Nowadays environmental problems are too big to be managed by individual persons or individual countries. In other words, it is an international problem. But what are the biggest problems in Estonia,why and how people could solve it? Air, water, and land pollution rank among Estonia's most significant environmental challenges. The combination of 300,000 tons of dust from the burning of oil shale by power plants in the northeast part of the country and airborne pollutants from industrial centers in Poland and Germany poses a significant hazard to Estonia's air quality. Estonia's water resources have been affected by agricultural and industrial pollutants, including petroleum products, which have also contaminated the nation's soil. Some rivers and lakes within the country have been found to contain toxic sediments in excess of 10 times the accepted level for safety.

Estonia vs England

United Kingdom is at the top thirty, with its public debt being 89.30 percent of the GDP. Natural resources can benefit a country greatly, if the country was lucky to enough to have anything valuable as in oil. United Kingdom is way more lucky at this point as they way surpass Estonia in natural resources. As United Kingdom has gold, iron, natural gas and so on. Estonia’s only natural treasure really is oil shale that they used to make electricity and peat. So UK really dominates Estonia at this category. Same goes for the population, while Estonia has a shy of one million, UK trumps that with around sixty five million. The main population is mostly white ethnic group for both of the countries, so we can consider that a similarity.

Natural resources - our treasure

Hydropower is energy derived from the movement of water in rivers and oceans,it can be used to generate electricity using turbines, or can be used mechanically to do useful work. It is a very common resource. Besides these , there are a lot more renewable resources such as animals, plants, forrests and so on. Non-renewable resources: Some resources take hundreds, thousands and even millions of years to be made. These are called non-renewable resources like coal , oil shale, petroleum, natural gases, rocks. Natural gas- is a gas consisting mostly of methane. It is used to produce electricity and heat, to produce different products like fertilisers, glass, plastic, it can also be used as a fuel to our cars. Petroleum is a liquid that can be found in earth's crust. It is used as fuel and as a raw material in chemical industry. It is very important we use renewable and non-renewable resources wisely.

Estonia

Hinterland is mainly agricultural. Estonia is known for its thousands of lakes and beautiful nature. One of the most interesting sight is Jägala waterfall. The largest Lake called Peipsi separates Estonia from Russia. The biggest river basin is around the Pärnu river. There are very large forested areas in Estonia and wood is an important export article. Unfortunately is Estonia quite poor in other natural resources. The main mineral resources are sand, limestone and shale. The climate in Estonia is moderate, but hinterland winters are pretty rough. Fortunately, the volcanoes, hurricanes, floods and eartsquakes have no threats to Estonia. Estonia is a democratic parliamentary republic and is devided into fifteen counties. The Parliament of Estonia is called Riigikogu. The Riigikogu elects and appoints several high officials of the state, including the President of the Republic.

Järgnevalt on toodud lühiülevaade sellest, milliseid aineid võib sisaldada pesupulber ja millised on neist ohtlikud. Pesupulbrite koostisosadeks on pindaktiivsed ained, polüfosfaadid, perboraadid, persulfaadid, pleegitusained, lõhnaained, jms. Pindaktiivsed ained: puhastus-vahendites ja pesupulbrites leidub peamiselt anioonsed, vähem ka neutraalsed pindaktiivsed ained. Sünteetiliste pesuainete leviku tõttu 1940 aastatel hakkas vahutama jõgede ja järvede vesi, milledesse juhiti linnade heitveed. See oli tingitud sellest, et sünteetilised pindaktiivsed ained ei lagunenud looduskeskkonnas. Alates 1960. aastatest nõutakse enamikes maailma riikides, et sünteetilised pesuvahendid peavad põhiliselt koosnema bioloogiliselt lagunevatest ainetest - see hoiab ära kahjulike ühendite kuhjumise keskkonnas.

PETROLEUM

Formation of petroleum occurs from hydrocarbon pyrolysis in a variety of mainly endothermic reactions at high temperature and/or pressure. There were certain warm nutrient-rich environments such as the Gulf of Mexico and the ancient Tethys Sea where the large amounts of organic material falling to the ocean floor exceeded the rate at which it could decompose. This resulted in large masses of organic material being buried under subsequent deposits such as shale formed from mud. This massive organic deposit later became heated and transformed under pressure into oil. Geologists often refer to the temperature range in which oil forms as an "oil window"below the minimum temperature oil remains trapped in the form of kerogen, and above the maximum temperature the oil is converted to natural gas through the process of thermal cracking. Sometimes, oil formed at extreme depths may migrate and become trapped at a much shallower level

(Estonia TEST english I)

Milestones in Estonian History The Estonians are a Finno-Ugric people who came from the area near the Urals and the Volga and Oka rivers. They migrated westward to the Baltic shores some 5, 000 years ago. In the ninth century A.D. Viking ships invaded Estonia and the country became a vital link in the sea-trade between East and West. By the 12th century, the Arabian geographer al-Idrisi had placed the city on his maps. In the 13th century, Tallinn joined the Hanseatic League, the union of European commercial towns that stretched from London to Novgorod. Pärnu, Viljandi and Tartu were also members. Estonia became a vital link in the sea-trade between East and West. The oldest preserved book written in Estonian, a catechism, dates from 1535. Tartu University was established in 1632, on orders from Sweden's King Gustav II Adolf. Literacy spread. The Bible was translated into Estonian in 1739(pole vaja teada). A period of wars began in...

Radial growth of trees were determined from 65 samples of pines sampled in 2009. Samples were measured on LINTAB instrument and TSAPWin program. Measured data were analysed in Excel and TSAPWin programs. Results show that yearly growth of bog pines was the biggest during 1960-1990 - clear agreement with earlier studies. During last decades the growth has dropped: in Kõrgesoo back to level of 60s, in Puhatu on slightly higher level. Thus, nice agreement with the use of oil shale - the main source of alkaline and nutrient-rich pollution in area is observable. Changes in growth rates were well correlated with the distance of bogs from power plants, age of trees and at Selisoo also with drainage activities. The increase and drop of growth is the most evident for younger trees and almost zero for trees over 100 years old. Thus, younger trees are recommended to study nutrient load influence on growth of trees in bogs

It is a place you must visit. Geography and climate of Estonia Estonia lies on the eastern shores of the Baltic Sea immediately across the Gulf of Finland from Finland on the level northwestern part of the rising east European platform between 57.3° and 59.5° N and 21.5° and 28.1° E. Average elevation reaches only 50 metres (164 ft), and the country's highest point is the Suur Munamägi in the southeast at 318 metres (1,043 ft). Oil shale (or kukersite) and limestone deposits, along with forests which cover 47% of the land, play key economic roles in this generally resource- poor country. Estonia boasts over 1,400 lakes. Most are very small, with the largest, Lake Peipus, (Peipsi in Estonian) being 3555 km²; 1372 sq. mi. There are many rivers in the country. The largest are the Võhandu (162 km), Pärnu (144 km), and Põltsamaa (135 km). Estonia also boasts numerous bogs, and 3794 kilometers (2,357 mi) of coastline

Rahvusvaheline metsapoliitika ja säästev areng

Rahvusvaheline koostöö ja vajadused selle arendamiseks. Globaliseerumine, selle peamised tunnused, arenguetapid. Globaliseerumisega seotud riskid. Eesti rollid ja võimalused rahvusvahelises koostöös. Globaliseerumine ehk üleilmastumine on ühiskonnas ja maailma majanduses toimuvad muutused, mis on põhjustatud üha kasvavast rahvusvahelisest kaubandusest ja üha tihenevast üleilmsest kultuurivahetusest ning mis seisneb kultuuride, ökosüsteemide ja väärtuste ühtlustumises (segunemises), ruumilise mitmekesisuse kahanemises, kaugkommunikatsiooni osatähtsuse olulises suurenemises. Majanduse kontekstis seostatakse seda mõistet eelkõige vabakaubandusest tulenevate nähtustega. Globaliseerumise tõukejõuks on muutused tehnoloogias, eelkõige transpordi ja kommunikatsiooni areng ning energia odavnemine, mille tulemusena on väidetavalt tekkimas globaalne küla. Globaliseerumist seostatakse paljude nähtustega, milledest enamik on alguse saanud pärast T...

Evolutsioon

4. Mille poolest oli tähtis nn Kambriumi plahvatus? Suurel hulgal erinevate skeletiga hulkraksete üheaegne ilmumine. See on oluliseks sündmuseks elu arengus. Esimesed skeletiga organismid olid kõik väikesed. Põhiliste kehaplaanide kujunemine. Kui Kambriumis oli skeleti materjaliks põhiliselt kaltsiumfosfaat, siis Ordoviitsiumistalates kaltsiumkarbonaat. Osadel Kambriumi hõimkondadel on selged järeltulijad tänapäeval, siis esines neid, kellel puuduvad otsesed järglased (Burgess Shale, Hiinas, nad olid 80% ulatuses pehmekoelised või nõrgalt skeleteerunud) ja ei oleks pidanud säilima). Konodondid ­ hambakesed, mis kuulusid nn konodondiloomale, ühed varaseimad selgroogsed. Ilmusid Kambriumi lõpus ja surid välja Triia lõpus. 5. Milline oli liigitekke dünaamika Ordoviitsiumis? Kas tekkis juurde ka mõni suurem rühm? Ajastu teisel poolel toimus suur liigiteke, aga päris lõpus toimus järsk väljasuremine seoses jäätumisega

ESTONIAN SYMPHONIC MUSIC. THE FIRST CENTURY 1896-1996.

woodland. The country is flat; the average elevation is 50 metres above sea level. The highest peak, Suur Munamägi rises to only 317 metres. High limestone features characterise the north of the country, while the south has a drumlin terrain. The maritime climate is temperate, summers are warm and winters mildly cold, the average annual temperature is 5 degrees Celsius and the average annual precipitation is 550 millimetres. The most important assets of the soil are oil shale, phosphorite and peat. The designation “Aestii” was first mentioned by the Roman historian Tacitus in “Germania” (98 AD). By the end of the first millennium the people of Western Europe referred to the land of our ancestors with the name Estonia (derived from Germanic languages and means East). The Estonians, our Finno-Ugric forefathers settled here in approximately 5,000 BC from northern Russia and the Urals, as fishermen and hunters.

Christopher Vogler The Writers Journey

365 T H E W R I T E R ' S JOURNEY ~ T H I R D EDITION Christopher Vogler draining slowly into the canyons, unimaginable amounts of water carving new can­ yons and streams. T i m e and again I rounded a corner to find that the trail ahead simply vanished for fifty yards because a whole hillside had washed away, trail and all, leaving a damp scar of crumbling shale and a waterfall cascading down the raw rock. T h e freshly exposed rock is easily broken into shards called scree that flow downhill almost as easily as water, and can be as treacherous as quicksand. I could see the trail continuing again beyond the stretch where the hillside had collapsed, and had no choice but to scramble like a crab across the shifting, slippery rock face, clinging by fingertips and toes, digging into the tumbling scree until I was back on the level
