Bio Fuel, Bio Diesel and New Energy Information

Bio Clean Fuel Ethanol makes up just 1.2% of the nation's gasoline supply, and its production employs just 0.1% of the nation's workforce. But in Washington, the renewable fuel is increasingly sold on both sides of the political aisle as a magic elixir for the nation's energy, economic and environmental woes. And the unbridled enthusiasm could cost consumers at the gas pumps for a product that hasn't proved it can live up to supporters' claims.

Your first few tanks of the new ethanol based gasoline, may loosen and remove contaminates into your fuel system.

Earth Bio Fuel As President Bush put it in April, the fuel, derived mainly from corn, is ''good for our air, it's good for our economy, and it's good for our national security.'' Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D., called ethanol the ''cornerstone of any sensible plan for American energy independence.''

Yes, ULSD fuels have a lower BTU value and thus when burned in a diesel engine will result in less power. Cetane enhanced products can offset this power loss. Cetane is a high energy compound that makes the fuel burn more completely in the combustion chamber, resulting in more power, reduced emissions, and improved fuel economy. Power Service diesel additives contain "+ Cetane Boost" to offset this power loss while also improving fuel economy and reducing emissions.

For years, it has received a 53-cent-per-gallon taxpayer subsidy to make it cost-competitive with gasoline. It got a sales boost thanks to the 1990 Clean Air Act amendments, which require a gasoline additive such as ethanol in areas plagued by dirty air.

The earlier comment about bio fuels being an issue is correct. We are seeing it now that the price of corn has gone up dramatically..why. Ethanol production and the fact that those producing will pay higher price for corn than feedstock owners will. Guess what. your food prices will eventually skyrocket.! cattle, pork, chickens etc.

Bio Bio Fuel Less More Waste Now ethanol is poised for its biggest score -- a federal mandate that would require using 5 billion gallons of ethanol in the nation's gasoline by 2012, triple today's ethanol use. The mandate is part of a much broader Senate energy bill passed late last month.

However, there are some hindrances that have to be hurdled. First, ethanol fuel is more expensive than gasoline. Second, the planned 10% fuel vehicles from U.S. automakers, which can run on 85% ethanol blends.

Make Bio Fuel The mandate would be great for the ethanol industry, sending billions of dollars into the nation's farm belt and creating jobs for corn growers and ethanol producers. It also marks a healthy return on years of political donations. Archer Daniels Midland, which accounts for 40% of ethanol production, has given more than $6 million to campaigns since 1990.

Fuel Cell Bio * Environmental gains questionable. Despite hype from the industry, ethanol's air-quality credentials are mixed. A National Research Council study found that adding ethanol to gas in the summer could increase smog. A report commissioned by the Environmental Protection Agency found that burning ethanol boosts emissions of acetaldehyde, a toxic air pollutant. Refiners say they can cut other toxic emissions from gasoline without necessarily adding ethanol.

Bio Conversion Fuel * Energy savings negligible. Even under the mandate, ethanol would replace just 3% of oil imports. And that assumes oil isn't used in ethanol harvesting and processing machines. If it is, expanding ethanol use might ''do nothing to contribute to energy security,'' according to a Congressional Research Service report earlier this year.

Green Energy * Gas prices would go up. Forcing more ethanol into gasoline would raise pump prices, since even with the generous tax subsidy it costs more to produce than conventional gasoline. The Department of Energy estimates that the mandate would boost prices a half-cent a gallon; other studies put the increase upward of 9 cents.

Bio Ethanol Fuel There is also a hidden cost: Ethanol cuts fuel economy, requiring more frequent fill-ups. And a crop-reducing drought could push ethanol prices higher still.

Bio Clean Fuel Backers of the mandate say it is flexible enough to mitigate any of these potential problems. Maybe so. But the marketplace, not congressmen looking for campaign cash, should decide the size of its role.
