Abstract

The twentieth century was an important stage in the rapid development of human civilization. However, this development mainly depends on the uncontrolled development and utilization of natural resources such as coal, oil, natural gas, and other fossil fuels. These limited and non-renewable natural resources cannot meet the growing world energy demand for long.
