In very round numbers, gasoline has about 20,000 BTU per pound, ethanol
12,000, methanol 10,000.

Dear Mr. PanneerSelvam,
I've been reading your inputs to this forum quite for sometime and your enthusiasm is really contagious! but there are problems for individuals for producing alcohol.
The process is simple enough for small scale (back yard) production which you recommend. raw material such
PVC will get soft as it's heated. Take this into account. I'm not sure
how much heat is required though. I've seen people bend and stretch PVC
using steam or propane torch.
Also, PVC gives off dioxin when it burns.

OK, Lets see if I have this straight,
from what I have read;
- Methanol is bad as a single fuel unless designed for it, but ok to
disperse water as an additive like Heet,
- Washed Biodiesel is a compound containing methanol so it does not
react like methanol nor have its properties - But if you
Wind farms work in the 100 meters closest to the earth. Due to interaction with the ground it is relatively low energy compared to 1km and higher above the ground. In other words it is in the noise in terms of measurement. If you are worried about windturbines then you should worry

Probably a greater effect on stopping the wind, as these structures are solid
and
rigid, while the wind turbines move in response to the wind and deflect

I suspect that large arrays of wind farms would have an effect similar
to forests. We've chopped down a lot of forests over tha last few hundred
years, so this doesn't worry me.

PVC is rated at 160 psi at 73 deg F. as one (pressure) increases the
other (temp) must decrease within limits of a range. thus if one takes
PSI to 0 temp can increase to a maximum before deformation. I don't know
that point... but I have tested it to 212 deg F with no deformations or
glue
And when you consider the heat of compression is still in the cycle of a gas turbine you see the problem with using compressed gas. The refrigeration at expansion has to be input from the environment or you see a loss on both ends.

Sometimes engineering proposals are just gee whiz stuff. Just to show that you are capable of thinking outside the box. They don't have to have much to do with practicality. The hazard to air navigation is enough to scuttle this idea let alone the liability considerations of falling stuff. Just
