Can Biofuel Technologies Replace Fossil Fuels?

By: E. B. Chuong | 2010-03-29 | Environment
Over the past couple of decades, extensive research has been conducted on the creation of alternative fuel options. One segment of the alternative fuel market that has been gaining popularity recently is biofuel. Biofuels are considered to be any liquid fuel that originates from renewable plant materials. Unlike gasoline that is refined from limited crude oil supplies, biofuel can be created from a number of plentiful organic sources. Some say that this prospect is too good to be true and the technology has been hotly debated. read more

What’s Worse Than Fossil Fuel? Ethanol!

By: GARKO | 2008-04-18 | Environmental
As the myth around global warming begins to unravel and Operation Desperation sets in, it's important for the public to know why biofuels aren't the answer to solving global warming. Biofuels have achieved a great deal of popularity but that is mainly because the politicians have been pushing it hard along with the media. . The most prevalent variety of biofuel is Ethanol made from corn and combined with gasoline into something called E85, which means it's 15% gasoline and 85% ethanol. But the actual ratio is subject to change due to the outside temperatrue and it might be better named E70-85. During the Winter months you need more gasoline in the mixture to ensure the fuel works properly, so E85 is at least 70% ethanol. read more

Individual Steps to Decreasing Your Dependency on Fossil Fuels

By: Erin Hunt | 2010-04-04 | Environmental
Fossil fuels are hydrocarbons (coal, oil and natural gas), formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants and animals by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over hundreds of millions years ago. 85 percent of all the energy consumed in the United States, nearly two thirds of our electricity and virtually all of our transportation fuels currently all use fossil fuels. The pollution created from them is a constant source of worry and concern. read more

Want To Replace Fossil Fuel With Ethanol? When Did You Start Hating The Environment?

By: GARKO | 2008-04-17 | Environmental
As the myth around global warming begins to unravel and Operation Desperation sets in, it's important for the public to know why biofuels aren't the answer to solving global warming. For those that don't know, biofuels are alternative energy sources derived from living matter, as opposed to fossil fuels, such as oil, which are derived from nonliving matter. The most prevalent variety of biofuel is Ethanol made from corn and combined with gasoline into something called E85, which means it's 15% gasoline and 85% ethanol. However, the gasoline and ethanol content changes depending on the season. During cold weather, more gasoline needs to be added to the mixture to ensure the fuel works properly, so E85 is at least 70% ethanol. read more
