Write a report summarizing some of what you have learned of the various fossil fuels including
coal, natural gas and oil. A partial list of things that should be addressed or summarized would
include the following items but would not necessarily be limited to them alone. This is not a
simple question and answer assignment. Prepare an actual report with topics, arguments where
appropriate, supporting data, and conclusions where appropriate. Follow the assignment report
guidelines already established and stay within the page limitations.
1. Identify the current commercially available coal fired electrical power plant types in service,
and state what their various advantages and disadvantages are.
2. Identify what you think is the best type of coal power plant option for future use in terms of
fuel efficiency and environmental friendliness/cleanliness. Present the reasons/argument that
leads you to this conclusion.
3. Identify the differences between Direct Liquefaction and Indirect Liquefaction of coal and
identify the advantages and disadvantages of both.
4. Discuss various current uses of natural gas and how these will be affected if natural gas
becomes unavailable at an affordable price.
5. Shale gas is currently a very important energy resource and will likely remain important into
the future. However, there are some negative opinions about it especially regarding its
environmental aspects. Identify the negative opinions surrounding shale gas and present
your own opinion on it with supporting arguments, data, and conclusions.
6. In the U.S., the faction of oil use in the transportation sector is the biggest and this fraction is
still growing. Simultaneously, the price of gasoline is very important in how it affects our
daily lives and our economy. Develop opinions about whether or not the gasoline price
should be higher than it is now and whether or not the price should be artificially
inflated/taxed to decrease the overall use of gasoline? Form and support opinions based onEnergy Systems and Resources
Submission Guidelines
Your homework assignments are not simple math problems. They are brief but thorough written analytical
reports on a topic and should generally contain the following minimum items. See the grading rubric for more
detail on what should be included and what is expected
–
–
A TITLE PAGE with a descriptive title.
Your name and department.
An abstract. This should be at least 2 sentences but likely will be more. It should summarize all of the core ideas of your report,
all of the main conclusions of your report, and the basic logical thrust of the report. It should be very concise.
A main body. This should be from 3 to 5 pages for homework assignments. It will be more for term papers. This is where the
details of your report are fully developed and it should correspond point-by-point to what is summarized in your abstract and
should be logically organized. It should contain multiple indented paragraphs each of which contains multiple sentences.
A conclusions and discussion section. This section should include all of the conclusions that you reach in your report and any
discussion of their implications. Again, this should correspond to what is summarized in your abstract and should follow
logically from the body of your paper.
An ordered list of properly formatted single spaced references each referred to in the text.
Title lines and author ‘by’ lines as well as the abstract and references DO NOT count towards the total page count.
All reports should be fully typed, including equations, on US standard 8-1/2 x 11 letter size paper using 11 or 12 point Times,
Times New Roman, or other standard fonts and be double spaced with 1 inch margins all around. Figure captions should be
below the figure and should be comprehensive, single spaced, and done in 10 point font. Table headings should be positioned
above the table and likewise be comprehensive and single spaced in same font and font size as the main text. Pages should be
numbered at bottom center. All tables and figures should be referred to in the text.
All reports should be submitted by email as Adobe .pdf files. Usually all you have to do is save a Word document as a .pdf.

Population growth and finite energy resources
by
J. Doe
Nuclear Science and Engineering Institute
Abstract
Simple arithmetic relating population and energy as given by Prof. Bartlett may not be directly applied if
changes in energy use efficiency are considered. …
—page break –A. Title for section.
A.1. Title for subsection.
– Main Body Conclusions and discussion.
It is important to enhance energy efficiency to minimize the gap between the increase of population and
the increased use of finite energy resources. In addition to this technological aspect, it is also important to
reduce the total amount of energy used per household annually. These will also protect our environment by
reducing the total amount of carbon dioxide emitted from the use of fossil fuels. …
