Renewable energy sources can help lower energy costs and reduce carbon footprint. They can also make your house more sustainable. Various natural sources such as water, wind, sunlight, and biomass produce renewable energy. These energy sources replenish naturally....
Despite its low cost, ethanol is a relatively cheap alternative fuel. It offers more availability and less pollution than unblended gasoline. However, it also has some drawbacks. Pros Better For the Environment Compared to regular gasoline, ethanol provides a better...
As conversations continue surrounding renewable energy sources, biofuels are one of the leading products in the industry. These fuels are produced from biomass materials and can be used for transportation and, in some cases, heating and cooling. Government programs...
Over the past 20 years, urban areas have demonstrated exponential growth. There has been a drastic improvement in cities, automobiles have developed, infrastructure has changed, and populations have increased. This is all excellent news, but with this has come extreme...
In order to reduce its carbon footprint, the trucking industry is starting to consider the costs, social impacts and challenges associated with switching to alternative fuels. The National Biodiesel Board recently released a report on the economic and health benefits...
The biofuel industry offers an array of careers related to Bioenergy, including but not limited to agrofuels, microbiology, engineering, biochemistry, and more. Biofuels (also known as feedstock) generate from living or dead organisms, including matter extracted from...
Greenhouse gas emissions that drive global warming increased by 32% from 1990 through 2016. The transportation sector generated the majority of that carbon output. That means primarily on-road vehicles. This makes over-the-road transportation a focal point of reducing...
Biofuel has the advantage that it gets produced faster than through the traditional geological processes. Basically, it comes from renewable biomass material that is easier to reproduce than traditional fuels. With that said, what types of things could they use...
The first generation of mass-produced biodiesel used corn or sugarcane to manufacture ethanol. Problems soon arose with this approach, however. Not the least of them was aggressive pushback from environmentalists and others who objected to commandeering food...
Before understand how 3D printing and Biofuel can come together to create an impactful product, let’s look at them individually. Although 3D printing has been around for 40 years, it is now developing some traction. 3D printing uses various materials such as...
