Types of pollution

Hi we all know that, what is meant by pollution? And basically we also know that there are 3 types of pollution. They are Air pollution, Noise pollution, water pollution. But other than these, there are many types of pollutions that take place in our world. This post reveals all the other types of pollutions that exist. First of all what is meant by pollution? Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into an environment that causes instability, disorder, harm or discomfort to the physical systems or living organisms they are in. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances, or energy, such as noise, heat, or light energy. Pollutants, the elements of pollution, can be foreign substances or energies, or naturally occurring; when naturally occurring, they are considered contaminants when they exceed natural levels. Pollution is often classed as point source or nonpoint source pollution.
Types of pollution:
1. Air pollution
Acid rain • Air Quality Index • Atmospheric dispersion modeling • Chlorofluorocarbon • Global dimming • Global distillation etc.
2. Water pollution
Eutrophication • Hypoxia • Marine pollution • Marine debris • Ocean acidification • Oil spill • Ship pollution • Surface runoff etc.
3. Soil contamination
Bioremediation • Electrical resistance heating • Herbicide • Pesticide • Soil Guideline Values etc.
4. Radioactive contamination
Actinides in the environment • Environmental radioactivity • Fission product • Nuclear fallout • Plutonium in the environment etc.
5. Other pollutions
Invasive species • Light pollution • Noise pollution • Radio spectrum pollution • Visual pollution

Silver Bullet

Today is the first day of this year… On this auspicious day, our post is going to be about silver bullet… we came to know about silver bullets only in comics and stories… but all like to know more about it… And I help you to know it… The metaphor of the silver bullet applies to any straightforward solution perceived to have extreme effectiveness. The phrase typically appears with an expectation that some new technology or practice will easily cure a major prevailing problem.
The term originates from folklore. Traditionally, the silver bullet is the only kind of bullet for firearms that is effective against a Werewolf, Vampire, witch, monster, or a person living a charmed life.
The idea of the werewolf's supposed vulnerability to silver probably dates back to the legend of the Beast of Gevaudan, in which a gigantic wolf is killed by a person wielding a gun loaded with silver bullets.
In the Brothers Grimm fairy-tale of The Two Brothers, a bullet-proof witch is shot down by silver buttons, fired from a gun.
In different traditions, silver is thought to be the metal associated with the moon and with the human soul. It is likely that these associations have contributed to the legend of the silver bullet.
It should be noted that actual silver bullets are less dense than lead bullets. As a result they have less momentum after being fired from a gun and cause less damage. Because of this, silver bullets are in fact less effective than lead bullets.
Thus there is much information available about silver bullets…. Some are true and some are non-proved or fake… So for what silver bullets are used? Still a mystery, riddle, puzzle and whatever it is…

Happy New year

Largest birds

Our today’s post is about, the largest birds based on their height, weight etc. The largest living bird, a member of the Struthioniformes, is the ostrich reaching a height of over 2.7 m (9 ft) and weighing over 156 kg (345 lb). Eggs laid by the Ostrich can weigh 1.4 kg (3 lb) and are the largest eggs in the world today.
The largest bird in the fossil record may be the extinct Elephant Birds of Madagascar, which were related to the Ostrich. They exceeded 3 m (10 ft) and 500 kg (1,120 lb). The last of the Elephant Birds became extinct about 300 years ago. Of almost exactly the same proportions as the largest Elephant Birds was Dromornis stirtoni of Australia, part of a 26,000-year old group called mihirungs of the family Dromornithidae. The tallest bird ever however was the Giant Moa, part of the moa family of New Zealand that went extinct about 200 years ago. This moa stood up to 3.7 m (12 ft) tall when it was erected in an unnatural position, but weighed about half as much as a large Elephant Bird or mihirung due to its comparatively slender frame. The largest carnivorous bird was the phorusrhacid Brontornis, an extinct flightless bird from South America which reached a weight of 350 to 400 kg (770 to 880 lb) and a height of about 2.8 m (9.2 ft).
The largest bird ever capable of flight was Argentavis magnificens, a now extinct member of the Teratornithidae group, with a wingspan of up to 8.3 m (28 ft), a length of over 3 m (10 ft) and a body weight of 80 kg (176 lb.).
Thus I think that you got some info about some of the largest birds... Keep in touch and see you in next post...

Werewolf

Hi everyone, our today’s post is about a character that is well known by us through films, comics and so on… The character is none other than Werewolves, also known as lycanthropes. They are mythological or folkloric humans with the ability to shape shift into wolves or anthropomorphic wolf-like creatures, either purposely, by being bitten by another werewolf, or after being placed under a curse. This transformation is often associated with the appearance of the full moon, as popularly noted by the medieval chronicler Gervase of Tilbury, although it may have been recognized in earlier times among the ancient Greeks through the writings of Petronius. Werewolves are often granted extra-human strength and senses, far beyond those of either wolves or men. The werewolf is generally held as a European character, although its lore spread through the world in later times. Shape-shifters, similar to werewolves, are common in tales from all over the world, most notably amongst the American Indians, though most of them involve animal forms other than wolves. Werewolves are a frequent subject of modern fictional books and films, although fictional werewolves have been attributed traits distinct from those of original folklore, most notably the vulnerability to silver bullets. Werewolves continue to endure in modern culture and fiction, with books, films and television shows cementing the werewolf's stance as a dominant figure in horror.
Thus there are no proofs for Werewolves to exist, but if they exist, then humans can’t able to exist…

Fuel cell

Hi everyone, our today’s post is about fuel cell. A fuel cell is an electrochemical conversion device. It produces electricity from fuel (on the anode side) and an oxidant (on the cathode side), which react in the presence of an electrolyte. The reactants flow into the cell, and the reaction products flow out of it, while the electrolyte remains within it. Fuel cells can operate virtually continuously as long as the necessary flows are maintained.
Fuel cells are different from electrochemical cell batteries in that they consume reactant, which must be replenished, whereas batteries store electrical energy chemically in a closed system. Additionally, while the electrodes within a battery react and change as a battery is charged or discharged, a fuel cell's electrodes are catalytic and relatively stable.
Many combinations of fuel and oxidant are possible. A hydrogen cell uses hydrogen as fuel and oxygen (usually from air) as oxidant. Other fuels include hydrocarbons and alcohols. Other oxidants include air, chlorine and chlorine dioxide.
Thus I think that this post is very helpful for you to know about the fuel cell. So see you in next post. Until then it’s bye from Monterines.
