Green Fuel
GREEN FUEL
1. With the present constraints in the supply line of crude oil through Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), ‘Green fuel’ rather well famous as biofuel has already set a new dimension to world’s fuel mythologies of exhausting fossil fuels by next century. It paved the way to the scientists to divert from the traditional chase behind the carbon cycle to discover the ideal fuel for man kind’s usage amidst preserving globe.
2. Biofuel is mainly a type which is distilled from plants, crops and animal material. The fuel is much environmental friendly than presently used fossilised fuels and believed to have lesser emissions during burning process. In the desperate search of the ideal alternative for fossil fuel, ‘Green fuel’ as the name denotes has added a green light of pollution free outcome for the future of the mankind.
3. The human, being the most active and intelligent creature on the earth, is in the search for an environmental friendly option for world’s fuel demands well before 19th century. The transesterification process or simply identified as the conversion of ‘green oil’ extracted from natural sources to glycerin was invented as early as in 1853 by scientists, which was many years before the conventional diesel engine was found. To add to its glory, Rudolf Diesel’s prime model on four stroke diesel engine ran on peanut oil on 10th August 1893 during it’s limelight show to public. Hence, to mark this historical incident and one would highlight as a co-incident of gifting bio fuel, the date 10th August is declared as ‘International Biodiesel Day’ by the Society of Automotive Engineers. It is high time to remind the scientists of present day about the famous words of Rudolf Diesel during his address to German Automobile Engineers Guild in 1912, when a confusion arose to identify the efficiency of thermal cycle. He emphasized that the use of vegetable oils for engine fuels might seem insignificant that day but such oils
