Where can one find information on biodiesel fuel?
Wikipedia provides an excellent encyclopedia style article on biodiesel fuel. Other websites that offer information about biodiesel fuel are the U.S. Department of Energy's Biodiesel page and the National Biodiesel Board's page.
How much energy does a liter of biodiesel contain?
67
Where does the energy in biodiesel come from?
The energy comes from the plants because photosynthesis is being taken place
How many btu's in one liter of biodiesel?
One liter of biodiesel contains approximately 37,000 to 39,000 British thermal units (BTUs). This value can vary slightly based on the specific composition of the biodiesel and its source materials. Generally, biodiesel has a slightly lower energy content compared to petroleum diesel.
How many btus in a gallon of biodiesel?
A gallon of biodiesel contains approximately 120,000 to 130,000 British thermal units (BTUs). The exact BTU content can vary slightly depending on the specific composition and feedstock used to produce the biodiesel. Generally, biodiesel has a lower energy content compared to traditional diesel fuel.
What is a renewable energy technology that could potentially be used in your community?
Wind, solar, biodiesel, etc.
How does biofuel release chemical energy?
As any fossil fuel biodiesel burn and release heat.
Why is there an increasing demand for biodiesel?
There is an increasing demand for biodiesel due to concerns about climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, as biodiesel is a renewable and cleaner-burning fuel compared to traditional fossil fuels. Additionally, biodiesel can help reduce dependence on imported oil and improve energy security. Governments also provide incentives and mandates to support the use of biodiesel, further driving its demand.
What has a higher efficiency biodiesel or ethanol?
Biodiesel
What is the spanish word for biodiesel?
biodiesel = el biodiésel
Does biodiesel get better mileage than diesel?
Biodiesel generally provides slightly lower fuel economy compared to petroleum diesel, typically resulting in about 5-10% less mileage per gallon. This difference is mainly due to biodiesel's lower energy content. However, the exact mileage can vary based on the vehicle, engine type, and specific biodiesel blend used. Ultimately, while biodiesel is a more renewable option, it may not offer the same fuel efficiency as traditional diesel.
Is it safe to mix diesel and biodiesel?
Yes it is safe to mix petroleum diesel and biodiesel. Blends of biodiesel and petroleum diesel are designated "BX." Where "B" states that the fuel mixture is a biodiesel blend and "X" indicates the percentage of biodiesel in the blend. For example, common blends of biodiesel in North America include B2 (2% biodiesel), B5(5%), B20(20%), and B100(100%). B100 is also know as "neat," or pure, biodiesel.
