alternative fuel is creating jobs and improving the environment also. (www.biofuels,org, 2015) Biodiesel is made from a diverse mix of feed stocks, including recycled oil, soybean oil and animal fats. It is the first and only EPA designated advanced biofuel in on a commercial scale production across the country. Biodiesel had to pass strict specifications to make sure the fuel quality was right and can be used within existing machine engines that require diesel fuel. According to the…
industry as whole, redefining the future of mobility. Two type of EV’s 1. EXTENDED RANGE ELECTRIC VEHICLES (EREV) –It runs on batteries, but uses an ICE to power a generator to charge the batteries when the batteries are low. Its engine can be ICE on biofuel, or fuel cell. 2. PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLES (PHEV) - The car is essentially an electric vehicle with a gas-tank backup. Section…
foreseeable future highlights various alternative sources of energy with potential to reduce emissions and supplant heavy fuel oil (HFO) in two-stroke diesel engines. The possible alternatives are liquefied natural gas (LNG), hydrogen, biogas and biofuels such as straight vegetable oil and biodiesel. Straight vegetable oils are promising and an appropriate alternative due to being safe with a higher flash point than diesel, offering a smaller carbon footprint and do not require significant…
Thermodynamics deals with the relationship between heat and mechanical energy. There are four laws of thermodynamics. Zeroth law of thermodynamics – If two thermodynamic systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third, then they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.First law of thermodynamics – Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only change forms. In any process, the total energy of the universe remains the same. For a thermodynamic cycle the net heat supplied to the…
that fund and regulate the implementation of ethanol. Regardless of the government’s policies and enticements, I do not consider ethanol as a permanent solution to combat the environmental affects and the deterioration of fossil fuel. Liquid biofuels, such as ethanol, have positive affects in the potential to abate…
Boris Ignachkov 100827940 BIOL1010 Assignment #1 October 6, 2015 James J. Cheetham, Ph.D. Never Ending Contribution – The Road to the Carleton Prize for Biotechnology We live in the world where change is inevitable, and only those who adapt quickly can achieve great success. John Craig Venter is one of those people. He is a Vietnam veteran that became a biotechnology icon (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2003). His works have contributed enormously to biotechnology. His…
The most vital paramount for living is to have a connection to clean and secure water. Even one of the resolutions of the United Nations (UN) General Assembly (GA) agreed to the “right to safe and adequate water”. However, the Middle East has been actively facing scarce water sources since ten of the fifteen most water deficient countries are located in the Middle East. A study presented by American Water Works Associated (AWWA), states that Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Iraq, Israel, Syria, and Yemen…
Not only mechanics, but also a biofuels researcher also doubt about if it is really useful. That is when we haven't consider that putting ethanol in fuel also causes another problem about economics. However, if we change to use the pure gasoline for small engines, we should also use it…
Through this research, plant geneticists have to chance to aid in increasing crop production, Biofuels and Biomaterials, the improvement of nitrogen economy and soil, and the overall knowledge of photosynthesis and plant genetics. Once again, with this research being so new, the possibilities are nearly endless. The most important thing to draw from…
intrude with the benefit to support and the whole deal any desires of/possible destiny of making countries. The Canadian government has talked unequivocally against fare confinements. Likewise, Canada, the United States and Europe ought to quit tossing biofuel on the flame: they have to eliminate necessities for most minimal measures of ethanol substance in gas or biodiesel in diesel; and straighten out any tax cuts or helping installments toward creating innovations that don 't use sustenance…
