There are six types of different fuels we can use Electric‚ Ethanol‚ Biodiesel‚ Natural Gas‚ Propane‚ and Hydrogen. Also provided on fueleconomy.gov it explains the green house gas emission for each type of fuel. In great detail this site explains about the tax incentive for switching to an alternative fuel vehicle. This would

4. 1) Labor demand is more elastic the greater the elasticity of demand for the output. When the wage rises‚ the marginal cost of production increases. A wage increase‚ therefore‚ raises the industry’s price and reduces consumers’ demand for the product. Because less output is being sold‚ firms cut employment. The greater the reduction is consumer demand‚ the larger the cut in employment and the more elastic the industry’s labor demand curve. Unions want to limit the availability of goods that compete

FEASIBILITY STUDY ON MICROALGAL BIOFUEL PRODUCTION Joash Savaris Castro Abstract Oil price is a major issue globally as oil is a major requirement in almost all industries to operate. Another arising issue is the diminishing supply of fossil fuel or crude oil from major suppliers. With these in mind‚ researches for a potential alternative source of fuel are conducted all over the world. Microalgae is found to be a potential feedstock for the production of biofuel. Production of biofuel from

A biofuel is a source of energy that is made from living things or their products. Biobutanol‚ a four-carbon alcohol‚ is a type of biofuel. It has a higher energy than ethanol and can be used in vehicles without them needing modifications to their engines (1). Biobutanol is related to photosynthesis because the biobutanol can come from plants of biomass feedstocks‚ hence the name‚ biomass butanol (2). Biomass feedstocks are the plant matter that fuels are derived from. Biobutanol can be‚ in its first

fuel for cars besides gasoline has been advancing rapidly over the years. In light of this‚ car manufacturers have introduced hybrid cars which combine two or more sources of energy as fuel. However‚ many argue that most of these sources‚ such as biodiesel‚ ethanol‚ methanol‚ and natural gas‚ have either consume other types of oil or combine with traditional gasoline or diesel. Therefore‚ these do not solve the root cause of oil consumption. It may even create a shortage in another resource and other

Biomass can be converted to many useful forms of energy like transportation fuels ( such as ethanol and biodiesel). Biomass is one of the biggest green energy sources in the world. Converting Biomass‚ first goes through chemical and thermal to mechanical and finally to electrical. That is the process we use when we burn biomass. So an example would be cow manure

Market Equilibrium of Crude Oil Gina Brazelton Economics 561 April 17‚ 2012 Dr. Jill Trask Market Equilibrium of Crude Oil Market equilibrium occurs when there is no shortage or surplus of a product‚ therefore‚ buyers and sellers get what they want. When there is a change in either the supply or demand this will eventually adjust to a new equilibrium of price and quantity. Right now‚ industries are not only faced with ever-changing periods of consumer demand but their own production inventory
