Introduction: The aim of this project is to prove that the development of the former Creamery site will be good for the future of Ellesmere. This project is about using different forms and types of data and information to find out how the redevelopment would change Ellesmere for the better or worse by using people opinions, my opinion and various types of data and information. There are four main different types of data I am going to collect for this coursework. I am going to use questionnaires with set question. I asked my questions in the town centre. I asked them hear because this in the busiest area in Ellesmere and I am more likely to find people who are willing to answer my questions than if I was in a quiet housing estate. We were organised into eight different groups where only one or two groups where aloud to ask the set question in the town centre for thirty minutes. We did it in these numbers so that the town centre would not become overcrowded and so over the he space of two days the groups would get a wide range of results. In our allocated time we divided ourselves up into smaller groups of two or three so we did not scare or intimidate the people we asked our questions too. There were two main aims of the questionnaires were to find out why people came to Ellesmere, how they came, what on/in and where from. The second aim was to find out how much they new
CHP Potential in Indian Industrial Sectors
CHP Potential in Indian Industrial Sectors There are significant opportunities in various industrial sectors in India for producing electrical and thermal energy simultaneously in the co-generation mode. There is a potential of generating electricity to the extent of about 15,000 MW through cogeneration in core industries such as sugar, breweries/ distilleries, Chlor-alkali, aluminium, fertilizer, paper & pulp, textile, petrochemicals & refineries, rice mills etc. The fuel used for cogeneration can be conventional like coal, lignite, oil, gas or renewable sources like bagasse, rice husk, biogas and biomass based fuels. A review of cogeneration / CHP opportunities in some of energy intensive sectors is presented below. . Aluminium Introduction: Production of Aluminium from bauxite ore involves purification steps to produce pure Alumina (Al2O3) and then electrolysis of Alumina. The whole process is energy intensive. Energy accounts for about 40% of cost of production. There are four major aluminium producers in India viz. BALCO, NALCO, HINDALCO and INDAL. Bayer-Hall-Heroult technology used by all producers During purification of Alumina from bauxite ore digestion of ore at a temperature of about 2500 C at a pressure of about 35 bar. Further the heat is required in calcinations of the alumina at about 1000 to 12000C. Finally the electrolysis process of producing aluminum
Investigate the impact of tourism and of a Park and Ride scheme on the natural limestone environment of Cheddar, in order to decide whether this Park and Ride should be built.
Paragraph 1: Introduction Cheddar, in Southwest England, is famous for its gorge and caves, which are features of the limestone area in which the town is located. Every year, these interesting landforms attract increasing amounts of tourists, which endanger the natural limestone environment of Cheddar, in particular the gorge. A Park and Ride, which would be built at the Eastern entrance to the gorge, has been suggested as a possible way of solving this problem. The aim of my coursework will be to investigate the impact of tourism and of a Park and Ride scheme on the natural limestone environment of Cheddar, in order to decide whether this Park and Ride should be built. This decision-making exercise will be a cross-unit task, referring to two parts of the syllabus: "Water, Landforms and People"(physical geography) and "People, Work and Development"(human geography). In the context of physical geography, I will look at the formation of the limestone scenery in Cheddar. The human aspect of my coursework will cover the impacts of tourism on this scenery, as well as the economical and social effects of a Park and Ride on the local area. Collection of primary data: In order to understand how the landforms at Cheddar were made, and how tourism can damage them, I have studied in class the action of water on limestone and the features it creates. The primary data I needed, in
Visit to the central Business district of Kidderminster.
GCSE Geography Fieldwork Investigation Introduction For my GCSE fieldwork we were required to visit the central Business District (CBD for short) of a town or a city. The town that I will investigate is called Kidderminster, and is located in Central England, near the Wyre Forest District in the countryside of Worcestershire on the Stour River. Kidderminster is just 19 miles south of Birmingham. It has a very industrial history and is known as the origin of the Carpet Industry. The carpet manufacturing industry was established in 1735. The population of the town is 54,644, which were recorded last in 1991. Aim My aim is to find out if the number of pedestrians increases in number when moving towards the CBD. Also another aim is that I will find out if Kidderminster has the same features as a CBD. Predictions I have made some predictions to accompany my aim. . The closer you get to the CBD, the more shops there are present. 2. As you get closer to the CBD, the population density will increase. 3. The Shop and Environmental quality will increase, as you get closer to the CBD. 4. The frontages will become smaller as you get closer to the CBD. 5. There will be an increase in specialist shops as distance is shortened towards the CBD. 6. As the houses near the CBD, they will become more nucleated. I believe in these hypothesizes because of many geographical factors
What factors influence people who choose to shop at Edgeware and Willesden?
Introduction WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCE PEOPLE WHO CHOOSE TO SHOP AT EDGWARE AND WILLESDEN? HYPOTHESIS: - . 'The quality of environment gets poorer as you move away from the centre of an area.' This is because High Order centres have more money to maintain their environment and make it more attractive to customers. 2. 'Where there are more pedestrians there is more litter.' This is to see how clean the pedestrians are because people drop litter, so if there are more people there will be more litter. 3. 'People visit High Order centres more frequently than Low Order centres.' This is because High Order centres sell things that you do not buy a lot unless you are very rich while in Low Order centres they sell everyday things like food, so you have to go there often. I chose these areas Willesden high street and Edgware broadwalk and high street because they are ver different in a lot of ways, like in Edgware there are a lot of high order shops while Willesden has mostly low order shops. I also chose Willesden because it is near my home, while Edgware is near my partner's home. Edgware has a relatively large high street and a covered shopping centre called the Edgware broadwalk. The high street has 100 stores while the broadwalk has 45 shops so Edgware has an overall of 145 shops. The shops are mostly high order and the high street is in a nucleated shape that is it is like
Geography Coursework - shopping areas
The aim of my coursework is to compare two shopping areas; Forster Square Retail Park and Kirkgate Shopping Centre. These shopping areas both sell companion goods so this will determine a fair project. I have some objectives which will tell you what I want to achieve from this project: 1) To find out the number of people going into chain stores at both shopping areas 2) To find out how many pedestrians there are in a flow near each shopping area 3) To find out how many shoppers tend to spend at both shopping areas 4) To find out what sort of transport is used to get to Forster Square Retail Park 5) To know the size of each chain store in both areas to make a comparison 6) To find out where the people that shop at Forster Square and Kirkgate Centre live 7) To know how frequently people shop at both shopping areas 8) To find out the reasons why shoppers chose to shop at their desired location 9) To find out the age pattern of the people that shop at both shopping areas I chose to base my project on the town of Bradford as it is where I live, also because I thought I would find it interesting to do a project on 2 shopping areas that I visit quite frequently. The Bradford District covers an area of 143 square miles, 60% of which is made up of green open spaces. Scattered within the area you can find the rolling landscapes of the Airedale and Wharfedale

The aim of this piece of coursework is to study tourism and its importance in Britain. Tourism is one way of spending leisure time. It involves visiting places and learning new things from places of different interest and having pleasure all the while. In the last fifty years the demand for tourism has soared. As a result tourism employs about 120 million people world-wide and is one of the world's fastest growing industries. Today people are becoming much more adventurous in their holiday destinations. People visit other countries instead of just staying in Britain to know more about different cultures and also to enjoy themselves away from work. It is a chance to explore what other countries have to offer. Many tourists visit the Caribbean for a most part of their holidays now because of it various activities and climate. There are lots of things that attract tourism to a place. The climatic conditions of the place, people prefer hot weathers and would rather avoid the wet weather for their holidays. Tourists are also attracted to natural waterfalls, mountains, jungles, wildlife, famous places with collections of history and monuments from earlier civilizations. Others also prefer the coastal areas to relax and hangout within peaceful environments. Families on holidays may also prefer places with facilities for children attract tourism. Also most people travel
Geography- Whistable Coast Project
GCSE Geography Coursework Coastal Management at Whistable Does Long shore Drift exist in the Whistable (North Kent) Coast? Name: Hari Kumar Form: 10C Candidate No: 5104 School: Dartford grammar school Centre No: 61103 Coastal Management at Whistable Hari Kumar 10C - England Chapter 1- Introduction Geographical Background-The Theme of my investigation is Coastal management in Whistable. Coastal management is the act of stopping or slowing down natural processes such as erosion, this is done by using different types of coastal management such as sea wall and groynes. There are several different themes and ideas that revolve around the coast. One is the idea of coastal erosion; there are four main types of coastal erosion. And they are Hydraulic (the constant force of the waves crashing against the shore), Abrasion (where material being carried by the waves wears away the cliff), Attrition (this is where rocks and pebbles being carries by the wave are smashed against each other) and Corrosion (where acidic solutions in the water dissolve away the rock). The Weather conditions at the time of the trip were: Very windy, Cloudy with a couple of sunny spells. The direction of the wind was South- west and the wind speed was around 20mph. The two processes of transportation and deposition happed due to two different types of waves, Constructive
Factors affectting shopping patterns and behaviour in Bracknell
Introduction I chose to carry out this study because I wanted to see what factors affect shopping patterns and behaviour. I also wanted to see what factors influenced people's choice of shopping, and how far out of their way they would go to follow these factors. I chose the optional question of 'what importance does the quality of the shopping environment have for attracting shoppers', for the reason that the shopping environment is a hugely contributing factor to the reason that shoppers choose a certain area to shop in. examples of these factors would be attractiveness, security, catering, etc . These would all add up to increase the shops overall attractiveness, and therefore increase its sphere of influence. Bracknell is within central Berkshire, in the south- east of Britain. Bracknell is located approximately 50km west of London, and is situated in the M4 corridor. Because of this, it is an important communication link to London. Also, Bracknell is in the 'silicon strip', an area of high computer business and offices. This brings in most of the town's GNP. Bracknell was quite a small town, a quite and local place until 1949 when it became a new town. This now became a planned urban community, designed for self-efficiency, and paved the way for it to become a central business district. Bracknell's population is 110,000, with the neighbourhood principle to thank for
