After many years of purchasing electricity from a faraway city, a town decides to generate its own electricity by constructing an oil-fired power plant. (10 points) Briefly discuss the process by which a typical oil-fired power plant generates electricity. Identify one advantage and one disadvantage of using oil rather than coal to generate electricity. Identify one primary air pollutant likely to be emitted by the new oil-fired power plant. Identify one secondary pollutant likely to result from this primary pollutant, and describe the process by which the primary pollutant is converted into the secondary pollutant. Describe one negative effect that either of the pollutants identified in part (b) could have on the health of the townspeople. Describe one negative effect that either of the pollutants identified in part (b) could have on the surrounding environment. Explain how oil-fired power plants contribute to global climate change. Discuss an alternative sourceof energy for the town (other than continuing to purchase electricity from another community) that would not contribute to global climate change.
