«What Is Ethanol

This short video below discusses some interesting facts about ethanol; its production; how its better than gasoline for the environment; and how its also good for the farmers that grow the corn used in ethanol production.

What is E85 Ethanol & How is it made

Rising gasoline prices have heightened consumer awareness about E85 ethanol. These days, there is much ado about this fuel, and why shouldn’t there be? After all, it costs close to thirty five percent less than gasoline and is quickly becoming the preferred choice for motorists at the pump stations. E85 ethanol is already widely used in Sweden and pump stations in America, with states like Minnesota and Illinois having the highest rate of E85 fuel pumps servicing motorists.

What is E 85 Ethanol?
When 15 percent of leaded gasoline is combined with eighty five percent of ethanol, the result is the low-cost E85 ethanol fuel. Widely available in the US, it is an alcohol-based fuel that can be produced from employing the use of two methods. The first source of production involves the fermenting and distilling of starch-like feedstock. They include corn, barley, and wheat. The next method, which is referred as bio-ethanol, involves extraction from trees and grasses.

Although the price of the Ethanol E85 may be foremost on consumer’s minds, it also gets the nod from earth activists because it is an environmentally friendly product. It burns clean and its key ingredient source is renewable. Ethanol E85 also eliminates the import of crude oil because it is locally produced and is also known for increasing the octane rating in fuel while decreasing the harmful emissions caused by gasoline.

Ethanol E85 will run well in flexible fuel vehicles like those manufactured by Daimler Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Isuzu and Nissan to name a few. But, if you don’t own a vehicle by one of the above-mentioned manufacturers, you need not fear. Some people are not aware that many other cars manufactured today are Ethanol E85 compatible. It is best to find out from your car dealer if you have a flexible fuel vehicle.

How is E85 Ethanol Made?
The method for producing Ethanol E85 is long and complex. The maker has to first extract sugar from biological feedstock in order to begin the process. Corn is the leading ingredient in Ethanol E85 gas. And the starch in it can easily be converted into sugar. Sugar for this fuel can also be extracted from cellulose, which is a sugar based ingredient found in trees and grasses.

Once the feedstock is collected, it goes through a grinding process to extract the sugar. Sugar fed into microbes quickly produces ethanol and carbon dioxide, which finally endures purification stages to get the ethanol to the right consistency.

There is another method of manufacturing Ethanol E85 oil or grain alcohol, as it is also known, and this is through a wet-milling process. This is also the method that large-scale manufacturers use when producing high-fructose corn sweetener.

Ethanol E85 is an innovative and renewable resource with many positive characteristics, making it one of the leading topics of discussion for those looking to help the earth and looking to keep a few extra bucks in their wallet.

Flying Aircraft on Ethanol

Ethanol has been available for nearly a century. But we are now finding ways to use it for more things and to help us on our reliance on foreign oil. Baylor University has done numerous tests on ethanol in acrobatic general aviation aircraft as well as passenger high and low performance aircraft.

Channels are bored into blocks that eliminate the need for pipefitting by simply bolting blocks together. Systems can be horizontal, vertical, or a combination of both. Blocks have center element that can be replaced with microchannel reactors for producing liquid and gas reactions such as ethanol, methanol, and hydrogen production for fuels that are used in fuel cells.brbrbrbra href=http://www.oceanethanol.comEthanol Produced from CO2 and Hydrogen/abrOcean Ethanol LLC announces success in its catalyst development to produce ethanol from CO2 (Carbon Dioxide). CO2 is considered a greenhouse gas, and has international value via the Kyoto Protocol. Credits can be bought, sold and traded. As part of its development program, Ocean Ethanol will also introduce the concept of distributed fuel production via the use of miniplants. These point-of-use devices can be installed in small applications, such as gas stations where ethanol can be blended at the pump.brbrbrbra href=http://www.altenergystocks.com/archives/2006/09/the_fuel_cell_now_and_in_the_future_1.htmlThe Fuel Cell: Now, and in the Future/abrOverview In light of oil prices reaching 60 to 70 dollars a barrel, attention is being paid to alternative energy technology, in the hope that it might answer our problems. The major role player right now, especially in terms of replacing combustion engines in cars and trucks, is the fuel cell industry. There are many types of commercially available fuel cells, ranging from ethanol to hydrogen. However, our readers and the public sometimes find it hard to keep up with all the technological terms and the latest inventions and research. This is a simplified summary of the science behind fuel cells, the types of fuel cells, as well as obstacles we face commercializing fuel cells and what companies are doing to overcome those obstacles.brbrbrbra href=http://www.hawaiihealthguide.com/healthtalk/display.htm?id=514Fuel Cell Seminar to be held in Hawaii Nov 13-17/abrFuel cells are devices that convert the chemical energy from a fuel such as hydrogen gas into electricity that is stored for use as a source of power.brbrbrbra href=http://www.e85safety.com/index.php?/archives/24-Brazil-may-be-selling-Ethanol-cars-in-the-US-soon.htmlBrazil may be selling Ethanol cars in the US soon/abrCompact cars from brazil that can run on 100% ethanol, e100, may soon be arriving in the U.S.Automotoveiculos S.A says it is "close to securing medium and long-term project financing" to build 50,000 Obvio compacts every year. Zap, the California company that distributes electric and compact gas automobiles, purchased the autos and reportedly has arranged for a $700 million to finance the idea. Zap says it will have Obvios available by the end of 2007.People may be a slightly skeptical because normal companies wait until a deal is finished before sending out press releases. Also, in 2005, Anuvu received an $11 million contract from Zap for fuel cells for hydrogen cars, but that order never materialized, and Anuvu is no longer around.brbrbrbr
