Magnets For EnergyBiofuel
Written by admin on May 11, 2009 – 10:10 am -
A recent government report says the US could easily produce more than a billion tons of materials to make biofuels each year – and it wouldn’t impact our food supply. Researchers at UT’s Institute of Agriculture are working on ways to produce biomass and alternative fuels.

noooo it doesnt it …
but you need more energy to produce energy that sucks it doesnt have much power to produce
noooo it doesnt it has less green house gas

What you don’t …
What you don’t understand is that when they grow these crops, the plants take in C02. If you know anything about carbon cycle you would understand this.

But i dont see that …
But i dont see that You understand the green house logic
if you do then why we wont plant more trees and plants to limit the greenhouse instead of worrying about co2 emissions?

theoretically, …
theoretically, there will be a zero net CO2 gain in the long run (if everything will be powered using alternative fuels). But there was a study by a Nobel prize winner indicating that first generation biofuels production may exacerbate the greenhouse effect through increased NO2 levels in the atmosphere; since smaller crops like corn releases more NO2 compared to larger plants. So researches today are concentrating to 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation biofuels. Try to search for it in Wikipedia.
