  Hydrocarbons are a linear chain of carbon and hydrogen rich molecules serve as fuel from fossil source from the deep underground. Due to rapid population explosion followed by dynamic development in the Industrial sector, the Indian sub-continent is spending lot of money on energy to the Middle East Countries. Therefore, exploration of hydrocarbon rich regions within our country is one of the needful mission to cut-short the cost of fuel. As a novel theme, the hydrocarbon exploration study was carried out at five different locations each for freshwater site (Cauvery Riverbed region) and Marine site (Chennai Coastal region). About 100 g of soil samples from ten different sampling sites were collected by digging the ground up to three feet deep in both the riverbed and marine coastal sites. Then the soil samples were analyzed for different physio-chemical parameters such as pH, moisture.. View More»
