Petrol, diesel and other fuels produced from crude oil make a range of harmful substances when they are burned, including: 1  carbon dioxide. 2  carbon monoxide. 3  water vapour.  particulates (solid 1  particles) sulfur dioxide.  oxides of nitrogen or NOx.

The starch in the corn is fermented into sugar, which is then fermented into alcohol. Sugar cane and sugar beets are the most common ingredients used to make ethanol in other parts of the world. Because alcohol is created by fermenting sugar, sugar crops are the easiest ingredients to convert into alcohol. Brazil, the world's second-largest fuel ethanol producer, makes most of its ethanol from sugar cane. Most of the cars in Brazil are capable of running on pure ethanol or on a blend of gasoline and ethanol.

The jury is still out on this one. Some people say the biofuels are better because the carbon dioxide they produce is taken up when new biofuels crops are grown. So, there is no net increase in carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas. Other people point out that energy has to be invested into growing biofuels.

solution, it has a somewhat sweet flavor, but in more concentrated solutions it has a burning taste. AN ALTERNATE FUEL SOLUTION: ETHANOL. Ethanol is an alcohol-based alternative fuel produced by fermenting and distilling any sugar based substrate or. starch crops that have been converted into simple sugars. Ethanol is most commonly used to increase octane and improve the emissions quality of gasoline. BENEFITS OF MFG ETHANOL.

Reading for Week 1. Before coming to lab for the first week of this lab exercise. you should read the following introduction to biofuel production. and review the basic experimental methodology. Biofuel refers most commonly to ethanol which is. produced through the fermentation of carbohydrates by yeast. cells. Fermentation is an energy-yielding process that cells carry. out in the absence of oxygen. Although fermentation does not. provide much usable energy for the cell, it is sufficient for yeast.

Ethanol, C2H5OH, is not a hydrocarbon because it contains oxygen as well as hydrogen and carbon. However, it is a liquid fuel that burns well. Bioethanol is made by fermenting sugars from sugar cane, wheat and other plants. It cannot be used on its own unless the engine is modified.

Ethanol made from corn and other crops. Ethanol is a clear, colorless alcohol made from the sugars found in grains such as corn, sorghum, and barley, as well as potato skins, rice, sugar cane, sugar beets, and yard clippings. Ethanol is a renewable fuel because it is made from plants.

The need to divert food crops to fuel production also. concerns many people. A bushel of corn (approx. 56 lbs) can yield approximately 2.5 gallons of. ethanol, and at a corn yield of 125 bushels per acre (Shapouri, et al., 1995), an acre of farmland. would yield enough corn for 310 gallons of ethanol.

There are ethical issues surrounding the use of biofuels. For example, crops that could be used to feed people are used to provide the raw materials for biofuels instead. This could cause food shortages or increases in the price of food.
