Nitrogen and phosphorus from agricultural fertilizer have been found to promote excess growth of algae in water bodies—a problem that’s common across North America and in many areas of the world. In some cases, decomposition of algae consumes much of the oxygen in the water. Tags: Cellulosic ethanol Ethanol Fuels Policy.

As both EV adoption increases and internal combustion engine vehicles have become more fuel efficient, states are seeking to offset lost revenue from the gas tax. Just as conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) cars measure fuel by the gallon, EV owners measure their energy consumption in kWh.

These plants will be fueled by coal, natural gas, biomass, and waste plastics and incorporate carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies. Fossil fuels with CCUS are already—and by far—the lowest cost source of low-carbon hydrogen.

The proposed route evaluated differs from the route analyzed in the 2011 Final Environmental Impact Statement in that it would avoid the environmentally sensitive Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality (NDEQ)-identified Sand Hills Region and no longer includes a southern segment from Cushing, Oklahoma, to the Gulf Coast area.

Expansion of agriculture to provide plant biomass for production of fuels and/or feedstocks will require additions to the present repertoire of crops. This project will identify key regulators of root architecture in relation to nitrogen and water use in the bioenergy crop Populus using an integrated systems biology approach.

If every megawatt of renewable needs a fossil fuel-fired generator in stand-by, then you increase the cost substantially of free resources," he said. The high cost of fuel this past year seriously damaged our economy and society. The cost of fuel effects every facet of consumer goods from production to shipping costs.
