| oglekļa dioksīds | carbon dioxide | |
| oglekļa dioksīds | carbon dioxide (A colourless gas with a faint tingling smell and taste. Atmospheric carbon dioxide is the source of carbon for plants. As carbon dioxide is heavier than air and does not support combustion, it is used in fire extinguishers. It is a normal constituent of the atmosphere, relatively innocuous in itself but playing an important role in the greenhouse effect. It is produced during the combustion of fossil fuels when the carbon content of the fuels reacts with the oxygen during combustion. It is also produced when living organisms respire. It is essential for plant nutrition and in the ocean phytoplankton is capable of absorbing and releasing large quantities of the gas, CO2) | |
| oglekļa emisiju ietekme | carbon dioxide footprint | |
| oglekļa emisiju pārvirze | carbon leakage | |
| oglekļa iesīkste | carbon lock-in | |
| oglekļa krātuve | carbon pool | |
| oglekļa krātuve | carbon reservoir | |
| oglekļa monoksīds | carbon monoxide (Colorless, odourless, tasteless, non-corrosive, highly poisonous gas of about the same density as that of air. Very flammable, burning in air with bright blue flame. Although each molecule of CO has one carbon atom and one oxygen atom, it has a shape similar to that of an oxygen molecule (two atoms of oxygen), which is important with regard to it's lethality, CO) | |
| oglekļa uzkrājums | carbon stock | |
| ogleklis | carbon (A nonmetallic element existing in the three crystalline forms: graphite, diamond and buckminsterfullerene: occurring in carbon dioxide, coal, oil and all organic compounds) | |
| ogļhidrāts | carbohydrate (Any of the group of organic compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, including sugars, starches and celluloses) | |
| ogļskābā gāze | carbon dioxide | |
| ogļu attīrīšana | coal refining (The processing of coal to remove impurities) | |
| ogļu gazifikācija | coal gasification (Process of conversion of coal to a gaseous product which is used as fuel in electric power stations) | |
| ogļu ieguve | coal mining (The technical and mechanical job of removing coal from the earth and preparing it for market) | |
| ogļu sašķidrināšana | coal liquefaction (The process of preparing a liquid mixture of hydrocarbons by destructive distillation of coal) | |
| ogļu tehnoloģija | coal technology (The processing of coal to make gaseous and liquid fuels) | |
| ogļūdeņradis | hydrocarbon (A very large group of chemical compounds composed only of carbon and hydrogen) | |
| ogļūdeņraža uzglabāšanas tvertne | hydrocarbon storage tank (A container or a reservoir for the storage of hydrocarbons) | |
