Fossil Fuel
• Fossil fuels are source of energy derived from the
fossilized remains of once living plants and animals
million years ago. Those remains of dead plants and
animals long time ago were buried and fossilized in the
earth’s crust, thus this fuels are found beneath the
earth’s surface.
• Since this fuel originated from the remains of once living
organisms, fossil fuels composed mainly of high content
of carbon and hydrogen, called hydrocarbons.
• Fossil fuels includes coal, oil (includes petroleum or
crude oil) and natural gas.
1. Coal
•Coal is a type of fossil fuel that is non-
renewable source of energy. It is a solid
rock form of fossil fuel that originated from
the dead plant and animal matter that piled
up in layers for over million years ago. Its
material is highly composed of carbon
content.
1. Coal
• Coal can be extracted using two methods:
surface mining and underground mining.
Surface mining, also known as strip mining,
involves the removal of the entire layer of rock
and soil to access the coal deposit beneath the
surface. Underground mining involves the
usage of heavy machinery to cut coal from
deep underground deposits.
2. Oil / Crude oil
• Oil / Crude oil or also known as
Petroleum is another type of fossil
fuel that is non- renewable. It is a
liquid type of fossil fuel composed
mostly of hydrocarbons. Like coal,
petroleum originates from the
remains of living organisms.
2. Oil / Crude oil
• Petroleum comes from ancient
marine organisms like marine
plants, algae and bacteria. This can
be extracted by drilling on land or at
sea. It can also be extracted
through strip mining in the case of
tar sands oil and oil shale.
2. Oil / Crude oil

• Once extracted, this oil will be


transported to refineries to
transform oil into usable fuels like
propane, kerosene, gasoline and
other fuel products. Also, it is used
in making plastic and paint
products.
3. Natural gas
• Natural gas is a type of fossil fuel that is
odorless, colorless hydrocarbon gas. It made up
of hydrocarbon that is mostly methane (CH4).
Natural gas, like other types of fossil fuels, is
originated from the remains of plants, animals,
microorganisms that once lived millions of years
ago.
3. Natural gas
• If a natural gas is found in porous and
permeable rock beds or mixed into oil reservoirs
which can be extracted through drilling, this is
called conventional natural gas.
• On the other hand, unconventional natural gas
are those that are too difficult or expensive to
extract and require a special stimulation
technique like fracking.
Compare me Not! Direction: It’s time to synthesize your
learning. Table 2 below contains statements that will describe coal and oil.
Organize them on the Venn diagram to show comparison and contrast
between coal and oil.
SUMMARY!
1.Fossil fuels are source of energy derived from
the fossilized remains of once living
2.plants and animals million years ago.
3.Fossil Fuels are non-renewable type of energy
resource.
4.Fossil fuels are composed of hydrocarbons.
5.There are three types of fossil fuels: coal, oil
and natural gas.
6. Coal is a solid rock form of fossil fuel that
originated from the dead plant and animal matter
that piled up in layers for over million years ago.
7. Oil also known as petroleum, is a liquid type of
fossil fuel composed mostly of hydrocarbons.
8. Natural gas is a type of fossil fuel that is
odorless, colorless hydrocarbon gas. And is
made mostly of methane (CH4).
9. Fossil fuels are commonly used as energy
to power engines and other materials at
home and industries for these to work.
10. Fossil fuels as non-renewable source of
energy have disadvantages and could
impact negatively to the environment
especially during its combustion since it
produces carbon dioxide and other
greenhouse gases.
