Renewable Fuel Resources And Bio Fuels
This may seem a bit strange but there are actually many renewable fuel resources gifted to us. And all of them are derived from plants and are quite cheap to produce. These fuels can even be prepared at your home they are, that simple. But that doesn’t allow us in anyway to recklessly drive around and waste the fossil fuels. Because there are other complications when using these fuels. Mainly they don’t give enough power as that of fossil fuels, they can be extracted only from particular type of plants like sugarcane, switchgrass, sunflower, canola, potatoes, etc. and don’t yield much as well. Also the crops can be grown only in selected areas and there aren’t many such areas and not enough of arable land either to supply our monstrous need.
But anyway its still a good news cause ‘something is better than nothing’. Don’t get dejected so soon, there are many advantages too for example you can get more mileage with these fuels than the fossil fuels, they emit almost no NOX emissions, they are of course renewable, fuels like bio diesels can even be prepared in your home using waste oils from frying French fries. So the next when you eat French fries you can at least be happy about something. And most of all these fuels can used as additives due to their excellent mixing properties with there fuel. But as the general thought of philosophy goes nothing in the world is permanent and are subjected to an end’ maybe all our efforts of finding new fuels might come to end too. So its always better to conserve what you have now. It’s the best way to survive. Many have started using additives of these bio fuels in their cars, a little reduction in power does no harm at least not more than running on nothing. So till the people find engines that run in water it is better to use such alternatives and try to be more eco friendly.
