Energy can be dangerous..
In bombs, Chemical energy is transferred to light, heat and radioactive energy which can cause great harm and endanger many people’s lives.
Watch this video that shows a hydrogen bomb exploding.

Can you create energy?
No, energy is conserved.
Energy can be transformed but not
created.Listen to this energy
song.

Examples of Energy Transfer
1. Clap Your Hands
Think about the different types of energy, what energy are we using when we clap our hands
together?We know that energy cannot
be destroyed and only transformed so what energy is this being transformed into?
![Page 7: Bio-Gas](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062418/555e8530d8b42a41328b5537/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

The correct answer was C.When we clap our hands we
use kinetic energy and transfer it into sound energy.
KineticSound
:
What would happen if we clapped our hands together with more force?
What would happen if we waved our hands together but didn’t clap them?

Examples of Energy Transfer
2. Rub Your Hands
(AND SOMETIMES NOISE)
The heat is caused by the kinetic energy transferred to overcome FRICTION

Fuel is stored chemical energy. Can you tell me some examples of fuel?

Disadvantages of Fuel
Expensive Polluting
Diminishing Resources Time to gather
What if we had a fuel that was none of these?
Biogas is an alternative energy, watch this video that explains how India is looking for
alternative energy options.

How Does Biogas Work?
Anaerobic Digestion in Digester
Anaerobic means that there is NO oxygen present!
![Page 21: Bio-Gas](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062418/555e8530d8b42a41328b5537/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What to put in biogas plant?Ratio of Nitrogen to Carbon
Solid waste has both Nitrogen and Carbon in it.
We can use cow manure but we can also put in other ingredients to mix with water e.g. food waste.
Nitrogen (N) is essential for anaerobic digestion.
Carbon (C) is an essential part of the gases released. Coming from carbohydrates e.g. green grass, corn stubble ( Low N quantity)
Ideally you want a material with low nitrogen and high carbon at a ratio of 1N:30C.
![Page 22: Bio-Gas](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062418/555e8530d8b42a41328b5537/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What is importantRatio of water & Nutrients Ratio
1 water :1 solid waste Nutrients
carbon (C) and nitrogen (N)○ N= provide nutrients for the growth and
multiplication of the anaerobic organisms
○ Experiment with different types of solid waste!

What is important Stirring
Prevents scum growth Retention Time
Effected by temperature, dilution, loading rate, etc.
A normal period for the digestion of dung would be 2 to 4 weeks
At high temperature bio-digestion occurs faster○ Between 20 and 30

Summary Questions1. Why is energy transferred?
2. What happens in terms of energy when you hit your hand on a table?
3. Why is it important to use alternative energy?
4. Explain what two nutrients are important in a biomass plant and why?
5. Briefly explain what is happening in this picture.

We now know what energy is and why it is important to use alternative energy. We also
know that biogas is an alternative energy, so lets look now at how we can
construct a biogas plant to begin producing this
important energy!
