How could acid rain be reduced in coal fired power stations?
== == Acid gas emissions cold be reduced by: * Reducing demand on the station (less fuel burned less emissions) * Make the staitons more efficient * Use a lower sulfur coal * Improve NOx forming conditions in the boilers * Remove Acid Gases by treatmnt before discahrge * Close inefficient stations * Have a shedding strategy for the network that uses lower politon emitting stations first
Where does gases from rain acid come from?
Mostly from coal fired power plants.
Why sulfur emissions from coal-fired power plants are considered an environmental problems?
causes acid rain
What is more reduced lactic or pyruvic acid?
Pyruvic acid is more reduced than lactic acid. This is because yruvic acid contains carboxylic acid and a ketone to oxaloacetate.
What is the origin of acid precipitation?
acid precipitation or "acid rain" is caused by coal fired power plants disgorging pollution into the air. the particles of pollution adhere to the moisture in the air and fall attached to the rain drops.
Pyruvic acid can be further reduced without the presence of oxygen in a process called .?
fermentation
Is succinic acid oxidized or reduced in the citric acid cycle?
Oxidized
Imagine you are a molecule of sulfur dioxide being emitted from a power station describe your journey?
It travels upwards and somehow make acid clouds and acid rain. That's all I know ;)
Which species were oxidized or reduced in HCl?
chlorine was oxidized while oxygen was reduced to form hydrochloric acid.
How is limestone used in power station?
In coal plants crushed limestone can be used as a filter to remove acid rain causing emissions before they can go up the stack.
How can the acid in tomato juice be reduced?
You could add milk, cream or butter to decrease the acid in tomato juice.
When oxaloactic acid and Acetyl-CoA combine what product is created?
Citric acid and Coenzyme ASH (reduced CoA).
