Sustainable Ethanol: BioDiesel - A Biofuel That Doesn't Compete With Food Supply
http://sustainabledesignethanol.blogspot.com/2008/09/biodiesel-biofuel-that-doesnt-compete.html
Covering Ethanol, Biofuels and Renewable Energy. Wednesday, September 24, 2008. BioDiesel - A Biofuel That Doesn't Compete With Food Supply. I drive a BioDiesel Volkswagen Jetta. For about a decade now one of the local filling stations has been selling BioDiesel, including 99%, or B-99 grade. For some reason they have to blend 1% regular diesel fuel to qualify for some sort of tax credit so the B-100 that was once available is now B-99. Check Out: Sustainable Design Update.

Covering Ethanol, Biofuels and Renewable Energy. Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Wood Chips and Other Waste Can be Converted to Ethanol. Making ethanol from food doesn't save much carbon, but making ethanol from waste can save tons of carbon and potentially bring the cost of fuel down in the process. What we need are a lot of new ideas and reserach on how to squeeze the most ethanol from existing waste streams. Potential feedstocks include agricultural waste, municipal solid waste and sewage sludge. Ethanol ca...
