By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard Biofuel refineries in the US have set fresh records for grain use every month since May. Almost a third of the US corn harvest will be diverted into ethanol for motors this year, or 12pc of the global crop. The world’s grain stocks have dropped from four to 2.6 months cover since 2000, despite [...]
Let’s see, automakers can get CAFÉ (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) credits for making gas guzzlers like Chevy’s suburban that can run on ethanol. That way they can rate one of those gas-guzzlers that gets 13 mpg at 23 mpg. Oh, and say goodbye to roasting ears. If we’re gonna get the congressionally mandated amount of ethanol (36 billion gallons) by 2022, it will take all the corn grown in the U.S. today. And not to be outdone, Indonesia and Central and . . .
Major Sources Of Green Energy There are many different forms of renewable energy. All renewable energy comes from natural sources such as geothermal heat, tides, rain, wind, and sunlight. Currently only about 20% of all the energy used on the planet is from renewable sources. Renewable energy is used on both large scale and small scale energy production and in many rural areas renewable energy is very important for energy production. The vast majority of renewable energy is form the sun. Win

One of the highlights of the international biomass energy conference held in Mexico City on October 7th was a leafy green plant of which most people have never even heard of. The plant is called Giant King Grass (GKG), and its remarkable properties make it a potential solution to the search for clean renewable energy. In a recently released summary of a presentation given by Dr. Carl Kukkonen, CEO of VIASPACE, Inc. (VSPC.OB), GKG was shown to be one of the best potential biomass energy resour
On the heels of the opening of Coskata’s first flex ethanol facility capable of making ethanol from virtually any organic material, GM and Coskata have released a video (below) detailing the Coskata process. Unlike most promotional/informational videos that get dumped on the public, this one is actually rather informative. Read more of this story »
The jump in prices of agricultural commodities in 2008 was devastating not only for US dairy and livestock producers—its repercussions could be felt around the world with food riots in many countries and trade restrictions in a number of others. For many, that this crisis could occur at all was a wake up call.Given recent discussion by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) officials and presenters at the World Food Prize presentation in St. Louis, the crisis and increase in the number of h
Axial Vector Energy Corp. owns, develops, finances and licenses advanced next generation energy technologies that have tremendous potential in industrial and commercial energy-related applications around the world. The Axial Vector engine converts chemical energy from a variety of different fuels into motion, but much more efficiently than a standard engine.

The Biofuels Digest Index™ (BDI), a basket of public biofuels stocks, gained 1.92 percent to 66.46 on algae and cellulosic ethanol news. For the day, BP jumped 4.22 percent after announcing a cellulosic ethanol venture in Brazil, while Valero (VLO) dropped 4.34 percent to $19.39 after swinging to a loss despite strong ethanol profits. Among smaller caps, PetroAlgae (PALG.OB) gained 23.14 percent to $19.00 on news of approval of its co-prodct in Indonesia. Overall, declines led advances 9 to 8

The qualitative or quantitative technique which is implemented to detect the existence or to measure a chemical compound and or chemical group by using a reactant is a chemical test.To chemical test carbohydrate, there are a number of tests that can be conducted to determine if a sample contains carbohydrates and if it does, there are further tests that can be carried out to classify and identify it. The Molisch Test, The Iodine/Potassium Iodide Test, Benedict’s Test, Barfoed’s Test, Seliwanoff’
Students across the country recently had a chance to have a blast with biofuels. The 4-H National Youth Science Day taught kids some of the basics of the green fuels. This story from KSFX-TV in Springfield, Missouri says a University of Missouri chemistry lab played host to one such group of students looking to the future of renewable energy: With a little sugar, water, yeast, and a balloon, kids watched how yeast breaks down sugars. The resulting reaction release is a biofuel, a m
The Midwest Legislative Conference of The Council of State Governments recently issued a series of policy resolutions supporting increased use of both ethanol and biodiesel, and specifically support ethanol blender pumps. The group also adopted resolutions calling for use of sound scientific methods when calculating carbon emissions. The National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) is pleased with all the resolutions, particularly noting the call for “implementation of both federal and state
California-based BlueFire Ethanol received approval from the Department of Energy (DOE) recently to locate its second planned cellulosic ethanol biorefinery in Fulton, Mississippi. The company was awarded a $40 million dollar grant from DOE for a second facility in 2007 that was originally to be located in California. However, development and licensing concerns, coupled with the challenging business climate in California caused company officials to petition the DOE for a site change to Miss

Maybe we should get big polluters to fund health care reform? You know: Two birds. One stone. From Chemical and Engineering News : Fossil-fuel-based energy production, mostly from coal and oil, causes $120 billion worth of health and other non-climate-related damages in the U.S. each year that are not figured into the price of energy , says a National Research Council report released last week. The dollar amount is primarily based on health impacts and premature deaths of nearly 20,

An ethanol industry group says the loan guarantee program at the U.S. Department of Energy needs to function more efficiently and effectively to make capitol available to advance next generation biofuels like cellulosic ethanol. The Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) is asking US Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Steven Chu to make needed changes in the loan guarantee program for biorefineries. “A fundamental flaw of the loan guarantee program is that DOE is weighing the applications of
