Biodiesel is an efficient alternative fuel‚ for the reason that biodiesel is a safe‚ eco-friendly‚ and affordable option. Biodiesel is a clean burning alternative fuel. It is renewable and generated from a variety of vegetable oils and animal fats‚ not raw vegetable oil. Raw vegetable oil cannot be utilized because it has not

All About the Yellow Bell Flower By J.W. Carpenter ‚ last updated August 23‚ 2011 The Yellow Bell Flower (Allamanda cathartica)‚ also well known as the Golden Trumpet Vine or Buttercup Flower‚ is a fast-growing evergreen shrubby vine commonly enjoyed for its bright‚ bell- or trumpet-shaped blooms. It can be trained to grow on a trellis‚ a tree trunk‚ or another vertical support‚ or it can be maintained as a shrub. As a tropical vine‚ it is typically grown as an annual or wintered indoors in climates

Alternative Fuels – Data By: Denise Claire Tan Yet Nee Structure and physical properties of Molecules Nowadays‚ there are a lot of alternative fuels which have discovered by human beings in order to replace the depleting non-renewable fossil fuels supply. In fact‚ organic chemistry has successfully proved that organic compounds can be served substitution of fossil fuel supply. The structure and physical properties of organic molecules are characteristics that aid them to become useful fuels

In 2000 it was estimated that the US alone consumed nearly 20 million barrels of oil a day‚ which is about 5% more than similar nations (Friedman 195). Oil consumption is only going to increase until it peaks‚ then it will steadily decrease as oil supply goes down. It is predicted that oil consumption will peak by the year

Alternative Fuels for Cars Automobiles are considered one of the largest contributors to climate change – only preceded by the effect of fossil fuel power generation plants [1]. This means that the automobile industry is under a lot of pressure to cut down on carbon emissions globally by finding alternative fuels for cars. Moreover‚ as we approach peak oil [2]‚ the availability of conventional automobile fuels will reduce drastically causing an exponential rise in fuel prices [2]‚ a fact that

The history of Alternative fuels‚ or at least the concept of it‚ has been around since the early days of the automobile. Alternative fuels such as biodiesel‚ ethanol and methanol‚ have been produced and used on a small scale for decades. They are now being rediscovered due to the rising cost of oil and the instability of world politics. The discovery of these fuels changed the face of the planet‚ but since day one people have looked for other fuels that improved over the course of history. Alternative

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

Fuel properties of diesel‚ mahua oil and blends are comparable. The calorific value of mahua oil was found as 96.30% on volume basis of diesel. It was found that mahua could be easily substituted up to 20% in diesel without any significant difference in power output‚ brake specific fuel consumption and brake thermal efficiency. The
