    Is Biodiesel a Viable Alternative To Diesel From Fossil Fuels For Trucks And Buses?

    1.0 IntroductionBiodiesel is defined as mono-alky esters of long -chain fatty acid. It is a fuel that derived from the vegetable oils, animal fats, which is similar to the diesel fuel except that it is made from the crops. It is produced from domestically grown, renewable sources, such as crop oils or animal fats which are then chemically converted into biodiesel (Habmigren, 2003). Unlike diesel, biodiesel contains no petroleum products and free of sulfur compounds and aromatics (Habmigren, 2003). Until today, it is still the only alternative fuel for motor vehicle. The biodiesel blends have ranged from 2/98% (B2), 20/80% (B20), to 100% (B100) (Hafman, 2003). The reasons biodiesel is a viable alternative to diesel from fossil fuels for trucks and buses are it can reduce the pollution, it can enhance the country's economy, and it is renewable sources and can produce almost same energy as diesel fuels.…

    In order to compare biodiesel to other fuels, its properties were compared to that of other fuels to obtain relevant information regarding the impact of a fuel on the environment, the efficiency of a certain fuel when burned, and the amount of energy produced by the combustion reactions of the fuels. While many different biofuels are capable of being used to power vehicles, factories, and other necessary processes, their sources are being depleted while the…

    The Cost and Benefits of Biofuel for Society

    There are mainly three advantages once the city implements the biofuel as one of the energy sources. Firstly, the implementation of biofuels can help the public to fight against the ever rising oil prices and reduce the dependency on petrol. As the conventional energy sources such as fossil fuels, coal and natural gas will be used up in the near future, the prices of gasoline keep rising for the recent years such that it has become an extra burden for the public to stand for such high oil prices. With the introduction of biofuel in Hong Kong, the public can choose biofuels as alternatives to petrol and diesel with lower prices. Since biofuels can be produced from agricultural wastes, food wastes, and dried manure which are cheap and readily supplied, as a result, the prices of biofuels become more competitive to petrol and, with more choices, the public can reduce their reliance on petrol and diesel.…

    There is a widespread tendency to think about defense against biological warfare as unnecessary, as someone else’s responsibility, or as simply too difficult. Unfortunately, however, the dangers posed by biological weapons did not disappear when the United States began to unilaterally dismantle its own offensive program in 1969. The dangers did not vanish with the signing of the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention of 1972, and they did not dissipate with the end of the Cold War or the threat of nuclear retaliation against Iraq during the Persian Gulf conflict. Only by planning and investing in the right training and defensive measures can we diminish the likelihood that biological weapons will be used and reduce the risks, disruption, and casualties in the event that such weapons are used.1 Fortunately, significant improvements can be made in our defensive posture at relatively modest levels of investment, and both the Department of Defense and the medical community can play a substantial role in this regard. Biological weapons are unfortunately characterized by low visibility, high potency, substantial accessibility, and relatively easy delivery. The basic facts are well known: a millionth of a gram of anthrax constitutes a lethal inhalation dose. A kilogram, depending on meteorological conditions and means of delivery, has the potential to kill hundreds of thousands of people in a metropolitan area. These small quantities make the concealment, transportation, and dissemination of biological agents relatively easy. Many of these agents—bacteria, viruses, and toxins—occur naturally in the environment. Moreover, many are used for wholly legitimate medical purposes (such as the development of antibiotics and vaccines), and much of the technology required to produce and “weaponize” them is available for civilian or military use. Unlike nuclear weapons, missiles or other advanced systems…

    Bunge Case - Hbr

    As stated on Page 13 of the case, Bunge has several options in how to participate in the biofuels market. First, they could be more active in sugarcane-based ethanol. Advantages to the company include: a large amount of land in Brazil for the growth of sugarcane as well as relatively cheap labor; however, there is a substantial investment of $200 million. Second, they could produce more palm oil in Asia, which also requires significant investment in production facilities. Both methods result in a new position for the company consisting of the actual management of farming the commodity rather than just purchasing and processing. While removing the extra middleman from this methods could result in extraneous savings, Bunge currently is lacking in this area and has no material experts on staff.…

    In Vitro Regeneration of Jatropha Curcas

    INTRODUCTION Due to rapidly diminishing reserves of the fossil fuels and increasing effects of pollution from these fuels, there is an urgent need of eco-friendly alternatives to fossil fuels. Many energy fuels are being investigated. The best alternative fuel of significance for the future is biofuel. Biofuels refers to a non-petroleum based fuel obtained from the transesterification of vegetable oils or animal fats. This special type of fuel is mostly produced from bio waste. The worldwide awareness regarding global warming has popularized the use of biofuel. They are highly effective in minimizing the extent of greenhouse gas emission. Owing to the limited availability of fossil fuels, the use of biofuels becomes all the more important. They are renewable and environmentally safe. Non-edible oil seeds of forest origin are a promising option for producing biofuel. Jatropha curcas, the biodiesel plant is a potential source of such non-edible oil seeds. Among the many species, which yield oil as a source…
