Re: [Biofuel] How would any of you answer this one?

The argument that coal is used in the production of uranium therefore nuclear power contributes to green house gases is a bit ludicrous. If we wanted to eliminate the use of coal we would essentially have to do nothing at all. The automobile engine that you are running your biodiesel in was

Re: [Biofuel] How would any of you answer this one?

Ken, Are you saying that the refining of uranium and nuclear power in general does not contribute to greenhouse gases? Seems as if you glossed over this part: Indeed, a nuclear power plant must operate for 18 years before producing one net calorie of energy. How many years must a

Re: [Biofuel] How would any of you answer this one?

Ken, I do not find it ludicrous at all. 25 to 50% saving of energy nullifies the need to build nuclear power stations. The potential saving of energy, without noticeable effect on living standard is 60 to 70%, that is the size of the energy waste. Considering the 5 to 10 years it take to build

Perhaps not quite, but the originally reference http://www.green-trust.org/2000/biofuel/makingethanol.htm says that it takes 1 pound of sugar to make ½ pound of ethanol, so your 10,000 pounds of sugar from an acre makes 5000 pounds ethanol.  Not sure of exact weight of ethanol, but I can
