In chemistry, a reactive intermediate or an intermediate is a short-lived, high-energy, highly reactive molecule. When generated in a chemical reaction, it will quickly convert into a more stable molecule. Only in exceptional cases can these compounds be isolated and stored, e.g. low temperatures, matrix isolation. When their existence is ...
The Tres Amigas SuperStation (lit. ' Three Friends SuperStation ') was a project proposed in 2009 to unite North America’s two major power grids (the Eastern Interconnection and the Western Interconnection) and one of its three minor grids (the Texas Interconnection), with the goals of enabling faster adoption of renewable energy and increasing the reliability of the U.S. grid.

The Texas Clean Energy Project (TCEP) was a project developed by Summit Power Group, Inc intended to build of the world’s first [1] Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) clean-coal power plant, a type of carbon capture and storage facility, located near Odessa, Texas (coordinates 31° 44' 46" N, 102° 35' 42" W).
This forms a carbocation intermediate, and the X then bonds to the positive carbon that is available, as in the following two-step reaction. [4] CH 2 CH 2 + HX → CH 2 CH + 3 + X − CH 2 CH + 3 + X − → CH 2 XCH 3. Similarly, in an H 2 O addition reaction, the pi bond of an alkene acts as a nucleophile and bonds with the proton of an [H 3 ...
Three-carbon molecules are based on a skeleton made from three carbon atoms. They may be in a chain, or cycles. C3 hydrocarbons are usually gases, they are inflammable, and may be harmful to humans and the environment. [1] The CAS registry number for three-carbon hydrocarbons is 68606-26-8. Hydrocarbons that include three atoms are: Propane C 3 ...
The observed and calculated linear TCRE leads to the notion of a carbon budget. [9] [3] [17] A carbon budget is “the maximum amount of cumulative net global anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions that would result in limiting global warming to a given level with a given probability, taking into account the effect of other anthropogenic ...
The known petroleum deposits of Texas are about 8 billion barrels (1.3 × 10 9 m 3), which makes up approximately one-third of the known U.S. supply. Texas has 4.6 billion barrels (730,000,000 m 3) of proven crude oil reserves. [15] As wells are depleted in the eastern portions of the state, drilling in state has moved westward. [16]
