	Energy Transformation is the process in which energy changes from one form to another. Examples of forms of energy include: Kinetic, Chemical, Thermal, Potential etc. Whenever energy changes its form, there is no net loss of energy (Conservation of Energy). Virtually every process we engage in is accompanied by a transformation of energy. Some common everyday examples of energy transformation include, the chemical energy of coal being converted to thermal energy when burned, or the conversion of electromagnetic energy from the sun into chemical energy in plants.

	Energy has been converted through forms since the beginning of time with the ~~big bang~~, and the formation of the first stars. Humans themselves are constantly converting chemical energy into kinetic energy as we go about our daily lives. It can be argued that transformation of energy really began happening on a large scale with the entrance of the Industrial Revolution in the late ~~1700s~~. At this point in time, the chemical energy in coal was being converted to thermal energy to heat up water, which was then used to turn turbines and generate usable energy. Today, energy conversion is all around us. Perhaps the most common form of energy transformation is electrical energy. A myriad of appliances exist that can convert electrical energy into any form of energy depending on what type of energy is required that situation.

	I am currently very interested in oil refinery and as a chemical engineer, I hope to some day work in this sector. Oil is probably one of the most converted energy sources in the world. The whole point of refinery is to extract the maximum amount of usable energy from the chemical bonds of oil. This is accomplished through the use of changing parameters such as pressure, temperature, volume etc. This is directly applicable to energy transformation since the whole point of this process is to use what we know about the properties of oil and make energy efficiency as close to 100% as possible.
