One of the latest biofuels is algae biofuel, which is produced from algae that can grow rapidly and be processed into fuel. Algae biofuel is considered a promising alternative to traditional fossil fuels due to its high energy content and potential for low environmental impact. Research and development in this area are ongoing to improve production efficiency and scalability.
What else can I help you with?
What is the main chemical in biofuel?
The main component is ethanol.
How can biofuel production increase carbon dioxide levels?
Biofuel production does not increase carbon dioxide levels. Biofuel comes from recently grown vegetation of many kinds. When the vegetation grew earlier in the season it took carbon dioxide out of the air. When the biofuel is extracted and burnt that same carbon dioxide is released into the air again. There is no increase of carbon dioxide. Biofuel is carbon neutral. This is the problem with fossil fuels, who took carbon from the air many millions of years ago. Suddenly releasing this now is adding to the greenhouse gas levels and causing global warming.
Is all plant energy converted to biofuel?
No, some energy is used for respiration, anabolic and catabolic metabolism.
Why is ethanol from sugar cane called biofuel but ethanol from ethene not?
Ethanol from sugarcane is known as a biofuel because the ethanol is derived from a biological, renewable source. Burning this releases recently absorbed carbon dioxide so it is part of the carbon cycle. Ethanol from ethene (or ethylene) is typically produced from fossil fuels, namely petroleum, so it is a non-renewable resource. Burning this releases carbon dioxide that was absorbed millions of years ago, so it is all extra. Burning fossil fuels is causing global warming.
What are alternatives to oil and natural gas?
Renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass and biofuel). coal,wood
How do you get energy from biofuel?
There are many ways in which you could get energy from biofuel. You could for example burn the biofuel substance.
How is biofuel energymade?
Biofuel is energy made by heat.
What is in biofuel?
Different types of plants can be turned into biofuel
What fuel is made from animal waste and plants?
the answer is biofuel
What plant is in biofuel?
Different types of plants can be turned into biofuel
Is biofuel green?
biofuel is green because it does not uses fossil fuels to do things.
Is straw a biofuel?
Straw can be a component used in the manufacture of biofuels, but it's not a biofuel in itself.
What effects does biofuel have?
An effect of biofuel is the high amount of water usage that is needed for biofuel producers and putting stress on fresh water supplies. Another effect higher demand for food-biofuel crops, but there will be high prices for consumers to purchase them.
What name is given to a fuel made from living organisms ( such as wood ) or their waste?
Biofuel In general terms, you're referring to a biofuel. A biofuel derived from a specific plant may have a more specific name. shut up nerd
What is an example of a biofuel?
An example of a biofuel would be ethanol. A biofuel is anything that is organic, and can be grown by humans on a mass scale. Other examples are peanut oil and lamp oil.
Where does a biofuel grow?
Biofuel doesn't grow anywhere, it comes from plants that have the characteristics and compounds that enable them to be used for biofuel. Such plants include corn, canola, sunflowers, and rapeseed.
Is Petroleum a biofuel?
No, it is not.
