Melting Antarctic Ice Causing Sea Levels to Rise
http://www.alternate-energy.net/N/news.php?detail=n1141716980.news
Houston, TX - Satellite surveys show that ice is melting in
Antarctica faster than snowfall can replenish it, which is
causing sea levels to rise.

Hello Listserv Members:
I am looking for tentative cost (investment and
operation cost) for 300-500 KL per day capacity gasohol blending facility
(E10). If possible small description of the available technological options for
blending along with cost will be highly appreciated. Are there
Thanks for this doc Frantz I wonder if there is an equivalent from other
developed countries.
The document has the sustainability of local biofuels production as the main
criteria, which is correct. I've just been paging through Anita Roddick's book
Take It Personally and was thinking that
Composting required aerobic condition and well balanced C-N ratio to
carry out. And require active turning the compost pile to mix in
oxygen and fresh organic material to ensure a complete reaction.
Not really, there's no real need to turn it, nothing's gained except
maybe a little time. In
Fwd from the Bioenergy list at REPP.
This is what's giving biodiesel a bad name, via eg George Monbiot,
I-SIS, et al. But their reasoning the same weird disconnect as
militant veggies do when they conclude from the indisputable fact
that factory farming of meat is unsustainable that therefore
Composting can be achieved either aerobically or anaerobically. They are
different processes, require different conditions and organisms and the
organisms themselves have different requirements.
To achieve a more complete decomposition in a shorter period of time, you can

I've got some old oil with a few dollops of whitish-green mold growing on
top. I'm thinking of trying to turn it into biodiesel, but I don't want to
add biocide until the process is done.
Anyone have links or info on using micro-organism-infected feedstock for
biodiesel? Does the reaction kill

And could someone please direct me to information

Once again, these folks haven't yet discovered that crops can in fact
also be grown without any chemical or fossil-fuel inputs? Yet they've
published lots of articles about organic farming. Weird sort of

So...did Monbiot get his "research" for "Feeding Cars, not People" from Lester Brown or, was it the other way around.It's the same short-sighted promoter of fear that conveniently holds back information on more comprehensive incorporation of biofuel into a diverse, long term energy strategy.

I've been a subsriber to this list for a while, but this is my first post. I'm curious about the potentials of landfill trap grease. Is it possible to make biodiesel out of it, in a efficient process? I would imagine it would have some similar characteristics to No. 6 fuel oil. Could it be burned

Yes. It's possible. But you're dealing with feedstock that's 75% FFAs
and better. Acid esterification is requisite. A tight system would also
be requisite as the health boards would be involved due to potential
