Abstract:
The continuous progress in the eld of science and technology have given human
race to a convenient and modern lifestyle. Towards the end of the last
century, almost every other region on the earth began experiencing industrialization
to some extent or the other to come rst in the race of modern civilization.
As a consequence, energy has become the most essential ingredient for
the existence of life in a myriad of ways. The need for energy is ever-increasing
and to satisfy our appetite for better life, fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, and
oil) stand by us for more than a century now. More than three quarters of
the world's energy consumption comes directly from burning of fossil fuels.
