Fuel Ethanol is a high octane, fuel additive. It is blended with
conventional gasoline as a renewable substitute to other harmful
chemical octane enhancers. Ethanol boosts the oxygen content of
gasoline, resulting in cleaner fuel combustion and fewer
emissions.Ethanol is blended with gasoline at levels ranging
between 10%
to
25%. Ethanol blends account for about 10 percent of all gasoline
consumed in the
U.S.

| |
"Green" ethanol blends are government approved:
Ethanol
blends are used safely in any vehicle, without the expensive
engine modifications needed by natural gas, methanol, etc. |
| |
CO2 Reduction:
Although carbon dioxide is released when ethanol burns, it is
recycled into organic tissue during plant growth. In fact,
ethanol use in gasoline may even result in a net reduction in
atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. |
| |
Reduction in Ozone Emissions:
the use of ethanol causes a 25% to 30% reduction in emissions of
carbon monoxide (CO) with a 10% ethanol blend. |
| |
Renewable Resources:
Ethanol is derived from renewable biological
feedstocks such as agricultural
crops, like : sugar cane, cassava,
corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, dates, etc; as well as from
molasses and many others crops with high sugars and starch
contains. |
| |
Alcohol Europe
contribute to reduce undesirable gas
emissions trading Alcohols from natural sources as it is
mentioned above. |
|
|
There is no waste in ethanol manufacturing.
All of the feedstock used to produce ethanol for fuel and
industrial alcohols, distillers starchs
and sugars for Livestock feed, carbon dioxide, which is
collected and sold to carbonate beverage manufacturer's and as a
freezing agent in the food industry. |
| |
Ethanol cuts the emissions of unburned hydrocarbons and carbon
monoxide. There is a net reduction in harmful ozone forming
emissions, and greenhouse gases are with the use of ethanol
blended gasoline since growing corn removes carbon dioxide from
the air. |
| |
Ethanol use is approved by all vehicle manufacturers and is used
across the world. |
| |
Producing ethanol increases the supply of high protein animal
feed ingredients through the distillation process; this creates
new agricultural business opportunities
centered on the plant, and helps offset imports of
soybean meal and other animal feeds |
|
| |
Fuel ethanol benefits the economy as well as the environment.
Production of fuel ethanol around
the world has produced a new market for agricultural products,
improving financial stability and security for farmers, in
addition to direct and indirect employment opportunities from
farming to transportation and manufacturing. |
| |
The overall demand for alcohol globally is estimated at 35
billion litres a year. Many industries are increasing their use
of alcohol.
USA,
Brazil
and now Asia & Europe are the world leaders in the use of fuel
ethanol; nearly half of its cars are operating on pure ethanol. |
| |
In response to the oil crisis of the mid 1970's the Brazilian
government in cooperation with private industry, created a
national program to produce alcohol from sugar cane and to build
ethanol compatible engines. Now, many countries are developing
new plants all around the world, in countries such as
Latin America,
Caribbean
Basin,
Asia. |
| |
AlcoEurope
is ready trading all these produced ethanol. |
| |
The United States ethanol industry continues to set ethanol
production records and this past April set another production
record surpassing 180,000 barrels per day - an increase of 16%
over last year - and trends indicate a record year of production
totalling over 8 billion litres. |
| |
Today, many countries around the world are testing oxygenated
and (near 100%) alcohol fuels. In the
U.S.
ethanol blends make up about 12% of the total gasoline market.
In some parts of the
U.S.,
Latin America,
Asia
and
Europe,
projects are underway to test the viability of replacing diesel
fuel with ethanol. |
