Brazilian cane mills are also powered by leftover cane stalks that
heat caldrons to generate steam and electric energy, an extra
advantage that corn and wheat don't have.
Uh... why not? If you are just using the seeds of the corn (which is
stupid enough, true), what about the whole rest of

Reuters Summit - Ethanol use has Environmental Downsides
BRAZIL: January 22, 2007
SAO PAULO - Biofuels have the potential to lessen the impact of human
civilization on the environment, but even the greenest of renewable
fuels
Hi Charles There is a patented information about using the zeolites at the top of the reactor , which can be very selective to adsorb and return back pure alcohol see google search using free patent site.
Then you can recover the catalyst using solar energy to remove water.In the case of ethanol
that the ethanol inserted
has to be anhydrous.
Best of luck to you !

Hi all
It's slowly turning to spring down here in the southern hemisphere,
and a young man's thoughts turn to what he's going to get up to in
those long summer evenings. Me, I think only of biofuel! I am having
good progress and results with methanol but my long term plan is to

You probably could, but the separation of glycerol takes such

I know of using mixtures of ethanol with veg oil for diesel engines,
there
are some patents on it.

Hi chaps and lasses
Why can't I use methalated spirits in my petrol engine?

the list members. Petrol = gasoline, a spark-ignition engine.
Is there any reason
other than it been more expensive than petrol? When I

other than it been more expensive than petrol? When I looked at what makes

Could I get away with using meths, could anyone
