wind‚ solar and hydro energy sources‚ known as renewable sources (Able to be regrown). However‚ one fuel source in particular is currently being used and produced to power both vehicles and electrical generators around the world; biofuels. Biofuels are renewable gas or liquid fuels made from plant matter such as corn‚ sugar cane and vegetable oils. The two main types of biofuels are known as ethanol and biodiesel; both made from feedstock and are expected to largely reduce greenhouse gas emissions

Identify three renewable energy sources and assess their potential to replace fossil fuel The rapid depletion of fossil fuels has given serious warning that the era of using conventional energy is coming to an end. Due to the energy shortage‚ a need to find replacement of fossil fuels has appeared. Moreover‚ problems such as various pollution and serious climate change have occurred‚ which makes renewable and less pollution energy source alternative choices. Therefore‚ three options can be suggested

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 and simplest form‚ a plant that performs photosynthesis.

Effects of Rising of Fuel Price on Society | Paragraph 1 | Nowadays‚ fuel plays a very important role in our daily life. Without fuel‚ most of the vehicles are unable to function and this no doubt‚ will badly affect everyone daily activities. Therefore‚ in my opinion‚ I strongly agree that the rising fuel price has pushed up the price of other consumer products and this will definitely affect the society. | Introductory sentencesThesis Statement | | | In this essay‚ I would like to touch on

Ethanol Fuel‚ the Green Myth Who in the United States of America does not like a good ear of corn or two to eat? It is a food staple in many of our households throughout this great country and helps to feed the world’s ever growing population. It is also used to produce a biofuel and gasoline fuel additive called ethanol‚ and is being promoted as environmentally friendlier‚ has less of a carbon footprint on the earth then fossil fuels like gasoline and oil do‚ and will fully reduce our dependency

Environmental Issue Paper 07/31/12 Biofuels: The Pros and Cons A hot topic all over the world today is whether or not biofuels should be implemented to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Biofuels are defined as “liquid fuels derived from biological materials; can be made from plants‚ vegetable oils‚ forest products‚ or waste materials” (Dale‚ Kline‚ Wiens‚ 2). Currently in Europe‚ the European Commission (EC) is committed to reducing the total green house gas emissions 20% by 2020‚ and

and we can grow more plants and crops to create biomass energy. Advantages of Biomass Energy In many ways‚ biomass is a new source of power. While wood has always served as a fuel source for fires and ovens and conventional heating methods‚ biomass energy advancements are a few steps beyond that. Now these biomass fuel products are harvested and mass-produced and used in everything from engines to power plants. 1.

He also stated when the energy bill was accepted on raising the amount of ethanol in gasoline‚ it was clearly just to improve agriculture and to buy the farmers’ votes‚ to clean America’s air was only an excuse.
