advantages and disadvantages of fuel and use of ethanol


Advantages of the potential use of Ethanol Alternative fuel

  • Ethanol is a renewable fuel, when derived from plant material
  • descends the use and conserves petroleum, which is non-renewable and estimated to run out in about 3 decades.
  • Greenhouse friendly
  • combustion is clean and pure than other fuels.

Disadvantages of the potential use of Ethanol Alternative fuel

  • to replace petrol with ethanol, you will have to remove a lot of land and make those lands as farms of crops.
  • the energy required to distill petrol to ethanol is a lot. fossil fuels are used for this.
  • the car manufacture engineers will have to design a new motor to run ethanol and will cost a lot of money for make.

 Assessment of Alternative fuel based on advantages and disadvantages

There is 10% of ethanol in petrol ( E10 ). But yet is not reducing greenhouse emissions.
  • Newer energy sources that are renewable that operate distillation. 
if they continue soon in the future to operate such technolgy from protecting our ozone layer, it will be a big success in human history and society.
