3 What is alternative sources of energy 什麼是另類能源
Alternative energy sources(另類能源) are defined as any energy source and certain non-energy applications that can replace or reduce(取代或減少) the use of conventional(傳 統的) crude oil, natural gas, and coal(原油,天然氣和 媒).  This is a broad definition but it is helpful in avoiding concentrating on only pristine alternative energy sources, e.g., solar energy, wind energy, tidal energy, biomass, etc.

4 Why do we use alternative sources of energy? 為何人類需要使用另類能源?
Alternative sources of energy are much cleaner than fossil fuels They are permanent supply They produce much less pollution than fossil fuels 另類能源遠比化石燃料清潔 它們有無限的供應量 它們產生的污染遠比化石燃料少

5 Solar energy 太陽能 Solar energy is an energy from sun which is renewable and very clean. It will not produce any pollution and consume natural resources or cause global warming. Solar energy can be converted directly or indirectly into other forms of energy, such as heat and electricity. Nowadays, solar energy is used widely in our life. In general, there are two main method to take advantage of solar energy including photoelectric transformation and opto-thermal transformation. 太陽能是來自太陽的可再生能源，它是非常清潔，而且不 會產生任何污染、耗損自然資源和導致全球增溫。而太陽 能可以直接或間接地轉化成其他的能量形式，如熱能和電 能。今時今日，太陽能已被廣泛應用於我們的生活中。一 般上，我們有兩種途徑利用太陽能，包括”光電轉換”及” 光熱轉換”。

6 Photoelectric transformation 光電轉換
Photoelectric transformation is the conversion of sunlight into electricity through a photovoltaic (PVs) cell (solar cell) using the principle of photoelectric effect. A photovoltaic cell is a non-mechanical device usually made from semiconductor (silicon). 光電轉換意指利用光電效應的原理，以太陽 能電池來把陽光轉換成電能。而太陽能電池 是以矽 半導體製成的。

7 Opto-thermal transformation 光熱轉換
Opto-thermal transformation is the conversion of sunlight to thermal energy using solar collector. The energy produced are used in heating water, heating swimming pool, etc. 光熱轉換是指利用集熱器把陽光轉換成熱能。 而所得的熱能可用作把水加熱，暖化游泳池 等。

8 Advantages of using solar energy 使用太陽能的優點
Renewable energy Solar energy come from the sun, permanent supply The process of production do not cause environmental pollution The process of production do not consume natural resources or cause global warming 可再生能源 太陽能來自太陽，有源源不絕的供應 製造過程不會導致環境污染 製造過程不會耗損自然資源及導致全球增溫

15 生物氣是一種來自有機廢料,清潔而且容易控制的 可再生能源。它可取代柴木,化石燃料(價格由於存 量下降而提升)。
Biogas 生物氣 Biogas can provide a clean, easily controlled source of renewable energy from organic waste materials for a small labour input, replacing firewoood or fossil fuels (which are becoming more expensive as supply falls behind demand). Biogas include marsh gas、landfill gas、digester gas.They distinguish by the producing location. 生物氣是一種來自有機廢料,清潔而且容易控制的 可再生能源。它可取代柴木,化石燃料(價格由於存 量下降而提升)。 生物氣包括沼氣、堆填氣體、胃腸氣,由產生的地 點來區分類別。

16 How to form biogas? 如何形成生物氣?
Biogas produce by the anaerobic digestion or fermentation of organic matter including manure, sewage sludge, municipal solid waste, biodegradable waste or any other biodegradable feedstock, under anaerobic conditions. biogas form naturally ,for example marsh gas. 在缺氧環境下,糞肥、污水、都市固體廢物及其他生物可降 解的有機物質經由無氧消化或發酵作用後,生物氣便產生。 生物氣會自然形成的,例如沼氣。

17 Types of biogas 生物氣的種類 Landfill gas堆填氣體 Landfill gas is produced from organic waste disposed of in landfill. The waste is covered and compressed mechanically and by the pressure of higher levels. As conditions become anaerobic the organic waste is broken down and landfill gas is produced. This gas builds up and is slowly released into the atmosphere 堆填氣體由深埋在堆填區地底的廢物形成。在地 底的高壓、缺氧環境下，這些有機廢物會給降解 ，產生堆填氣體，並會慢慢釋出。

18 Types of biogas 生物氣的種類 腸胃氣最通常來自於牛羊等家畜。 Digester gas腸胃氣
Digester gas always come form critter. 腸胃氣最通常來自於牛羊等家畜。

19 Compostion of biogas 生物氣的成份
Matter % Methane, CH4 甲烷 50-75 Hydrogen, H2 氫 0-1 Carbon dioxide, CO2 二氧化碳 25-50 Hydrogen sulphide, H2S 0-3 Nitrogen, N2 氮 0-10 Oxygen, O2 氧 0-2 Compare with natural gas,biogas contain more impurity 跟天然氣比較,生物氣的雜質較多 注: The primary component of natural gas is methane 天然氣的主要成份為甲烷

20 Advantages of using biogas 使用生物氣的優點
Reuse the organic wastes A renewable energy The price is cheaper than other energy, for example fossil fuel Easy to control and collect 可循環再用有機廢料 一種可再生能源 價格較便宜,例如化石燃料 容易控制及收集

21 Disadvantages of using biogas 使用生物氣的缺點

24 Applications of biogas 生物氣的應用
If biogas is cleaned up sufficiently, biogas has the same characteristics as natural gas. Water (H2O), hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and particulates are removed if present at high levels or if the gas is to be completely cleaned. Carbon dioxide is less frequently removed, but it must also be separated to achieve pipeline quality gas. 生物氣體只要經過淨化，其特性便能與天然氣無 異，氣體供應商需去除生化氣體中的水份、硫化 氫及微粒等雜質，為求使氣體更能完全燃燒，供 應商會減少氣體中的二氧化碳含量。 未經上述淨化程序處理的氣體有時會與天然氣混 合燃燒。

25 Applications of biogas 生物氣的應用
In this form the gas can be now used in any application that natural gas is used for. Such applications include distribution via the natural gas grid, electricity production, space heating, water heating and process heating. If compressed, it can replace compressed natural gas for use in vehicles, where it can fuel an internal combustion engine or fuel cells. 這些經淨化的氣體在應用上也與天然氣無異，包括發電、 爐具等，而經壓縮的氣體也能成為壓縮天然氣的代替品， 可用在汽車的內燃機或燃料電池上。 Transport the excretion to a container, after fermentation, biogas , which can be use, is released, for example, cooking 排泄物從厠所送到容器中發酵,再將釋出的生物氣 送回屋中使用,例如煮食

26 Nuclear energy 核能 Nuclear energy is produced by a controlled nuclear chain reaction, which will form heat, and the generation of electricity. 利用可控核反應來獲取能量，從而得到動力，熱量和電能。
