Review Paper Waste plastic Pyrolysis oil Alternative Fuel for CI Engine – A Review Pawar Harshal R. and Lawankar Shailendra M. Department of Mechanical Engineering‚ GCOE‚ Amravati‚ MS‚ INDIA Available online at: www.isca.in Received 10th January 2013‚ revised 20th January 2013‚ accepted 5th February 2013 Abstract Environmental concern and availability of petroleum fuels have caused interests in the search for alternate fuels for internal combustion engines. Conversion of waste to energy

Alternative fuels‚ also known as non- renewable sources‚ are substances that can be used as fuels‚ other than conventional fuels. Conventional fuels include: fossil fuels (petroleum (oil)‚ coal‚ propane‚ and natural gas)‚ and nuclear materials such as uranium. [ 1] The fuels we use now are finite‚ meaning they have a limited life expectancy. This along with the toxic waste they produce has made environmentalist and government officials alike take precautionary steps so that we do not

Hydrogen Fuel As An Alternative Energy Source To Replace Fossil Fuels Since the beginning of industry humans have been in search of fuel to power machines and generate energy. Fossil fuels‚ such as crude oil and coal‚ discovered beneath the Earth’s surface were found to be an excellent source of fuel. These fossil fuels are burnt in order to generate the energy required to complete various tasks. Many nations count on coal‚ oil and natural gas to supply most of their energy needs‚ but reliance

Dependency of Fossil Fuels The flip of a switch‚ turn of a key‚ or the press of a button is all it takes to power up almost everything today. One simple motion holds the key to our future and unlocks our past‚ but at what price? With sources that were once thought to be endless‚ energy consumption and its byproducts has now become a front runner among debates. A far sight from the campfire and miles away from its full potential what does tomorrow hold for energy consumption and its

autos an additional 100 years? Will we raze our forests for our energy needs? I certainly hope our country will never come to those conclusions. However‚ someone must make a conclusion hopefully toward an alternate fuel source. The fuel source I would propose is biomass fuel derived from hemp. Hemp is the world’s most versatile plant. It actually improves the soil in which it grows‚ without chemical fertilizers‚ while choking out weeds by virtue of its fast dense growth. According to the

Cell Respiration Respiration is the process by which organisms burn food to produce energy. The starting material of cellular respiration is the sugar glucose‚ which has energy stored in its chemical bonds. You can think of glucose as a kind of cellular piece of coal: chock-full of energy‚ but useless when you want to power a stereo. Just as burning coal produces heat and energy in the form of electricity‚ the chemical processes of respiration convert the energy in glucose into usable form. Adenosine

Research Paper – Biofuels and the World Food Shortage The morning commute of many Americans includes stopping at the local convenience store or gas station to fill up their vehicle’s tank and grab a portable breakfast. In this seemingly normal and routine act these Americans are performing two daily functions that much of the world cannot‚ either because of shortages‚ government regulations‚ or a lack of assets by which to do so. The starving and malnourished children that are pictured in

Alternatives to Destruction Gas prices got you down? They should. However‚ the rise in petroleum prices is the least of my worries. Our nation ’s supply of fossil fuels is running out and we ’re doing more damage to our environment than humanly reversible. Now it ’s time for the good news‚ there are alternatives and loads of them. Legislation from federal and state governments along with biofuels are constantly being introduced and researched to the betterment of the environment. These alternatives

Abstract In this paper I will explore the use of ethanol as an alternative fuel source. Ethanol is considered a renewable energy resource; as it is derived from crops such as: corn‚ sugarcane‚ beets‚ as well as‚ other organic materials. The use of ethanol could decrease our dependence on ever depleting supplies of fossil fuels; such as oil. In this paper‚ I will briefly review how ethanol is produced in different parts of the world. I will also review several of the advantages of using ethanol
