do you mean "If coal were inexhaustible how is it harnessed for energy?" First, it is not inexhaustible; every bit of coal that is burned adds to the pollution burden of the atmosphere. Second, coal, whether inexhaustible or not, is harnesses for energy the way it always has been. It is burned to boil water to make steam. The steam drives a turbine, which turns a generator which produces electricity.+++I'm afraid the second sentence introduces a non-sequiteur. Coal can be burnt cleanly but its combustion products still include carbon-dioxide. However any polluting effect has nothing to do with being inexhaustible or not. SO to answer the question, coal could not be inexhaustible - it is a finite resource - and it can be harnessed only by burning it to release its potential heat energy as the last sentence details. Coal can also be distilled to give coke, gas and various chemical products.
Drilling companies drill vertically down to the desired distance, and drill horizontally into the shale. They then use hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, to loosen up the rock enough to get the gas out.
When you burn the gas, it explodes, and creates energy.
It makes the transportation of the raw materials easier. Much better to construct a bio-plant in the middle of the countryside - where it's surrounded by bio-mass, than build it in a town or city - miles away from the raw materials.
the bio gas that the algae produce is the energy source.
Biogas from landfill waste has been harnessed in sites around the world.
Yes. Because gas is a natural resource and oil is too.
Thru a process called Bio Gas preparation . In a biodigester there is a mixture of water and Bio waste products which are passed thru holding tanks eventually producing methane . End result Bio gas which is a source of energy
uses of natural gas:- 1.The energy in the natural gas can be harnessed to heat water 2.It is mainly used to light streetlamps 3.It is used as a fuel
by utilizing it in more productive means

Wind energy is harnessed to produce renewable electricity. This replaces non-renewable electricity from greenhouse-gas-polluting fossil fuel power stations.
fracking
We can describe ethanol as a biofuel after the sugar has been fermented. It then gives off a greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, when burnt. However, the sugar cane absorbs the gas during photosynthesis.
A Bio Gas Plant is a factory that makes Bio Gas. Bio Gas is a cleaner gas that many countries use, like Sweden. It takes about a day and a half just to make a few hundred gallons of this stuff.
