The 9 billion gallons of ethanol produced domestically this year will displace more than 310 million barrels of oil - more oil than we import from nations like Iraq and Kuwait.

    All internal combustion engines can safely and economically use E15, regardless of age. This is proven by Brazil's decades long use of E15, E25, and now E27. They have the same engines as those available in the U.S. In addition, E15 to E30 was used throughout Great Britain from the 1920's to the 1970's. This is also true of other countries such as France and Germany. My 600+ page book "THE ETHANOL PAPERS" has just been published and it's free to read on TheAutoChannel.com website.

      Ethanol is CORROSIVE and takes its toll on automotive fuel systems. Also LOWER MPG versus straight gasoline! The country doesn't need ethanol, more bureaucratic BS!!

    • @TheAutoChannel
      @TheAutoChannel 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@BobSmith-mc7uq All liquids are corrosive. One of the most corrosive liquids is water. It just so happens that ethanol is less corrosive than gasoline and aromatics (ethanol is compatible with more types of rubber, metal, and plastics than gasoline and aromatics). Moreover, although ethanol/gasoline blends may deliver less MPG in most gasoline-optimized engines, the lower price of the blend usually more than makes up for the lower MPG. Therefore, your comments are an ignorant waste of time. You should stick to simply being puppet master for Howdy Doody.

      ITS PUMPED TO A VAPORIZER WHERE ITS TURNED IN A VAPOR AND THEN SUCKED THROUGH THE SIEVE. AND THEN SENT TO A HEAT EXCHANGER WITH THIN STILLAGE ON THE TUBE SIDE THAT IS COOLER. AND THEN THE VAPOR IS ON THE SHELL SIDE WHERE IT CONDENSES BACK INTO A LIQUID AND IS PUMPED OUT

    • @brianpotter3804
      @brianpotter3804 ปีที่แล้ว

      Typically the vapor from the top of the rectifying column is metered to the mole sieves. It is superheated before entering the sieve vessels to about 20 deg F higher than saturation temperature to ensure no condensation inside the mole sieve vessels. You can use liquid phase mole sieves but they are usually employed to get very low levels of water in the finish product.

    Let's understand how this Gas-0-hol or as it is sold today as E10 "Ethanol added" situation has developed to the state that it is at today. Importing oil from forsaken, blood thirsty nations of the Middle East was identified as a problem to be solved. After short discussion, the LESS than "Plausible" solution has been to burden the American farmer to provide a energy "Supplement" to our nations energy needs in the form of Ethanol from "corn". With the backing of Government enforcement and the wisdom of economical decision making of Private investors. The necessary arrangements to mass-produce Ethanol derived from corn has been done. These Private investors and or Government officials are sometimes one and the same, and expect a "Return" on their investments into corn based Ethanol production. Here is the "screwy" math used to justify 10% Ethanol added gasoline. The claim adding 10% Ethanol only degrades gasoline by 8.5-to-8%. If you get 20MPG without Ethanol you will get 17.5 -to-17.33MPG with Ethanol. A LOSS of 2.5 - 2.33 MPG to add a 1.5 gallons of Ethanol to a 15 gallon tank of gas. That adds up to approximately 36.45 miles Less from a tank of gas with Ethanol. It would take just short of 2 gallons of gas to make up the loss provided from adding 1.5 gallons of Ethanol. With this somewhat "screwy" math the claim is that less than a half a gasoline gallon is "Conserved" from consuming a 15 gallon tank with 10% Ethanol added. If you consume 34 15 gallon tanks of 10% Ethanol added gasoline you will have used 510 gallons of Ethanol added Gasoline to conserve around 15 gallons of gas. Traveling 9,180 miles on 510 gallons this is about one year of driving to conserve one (1) tank 15 gallons of fuel. When Gas-0-hol was marketed in the 1970's and failed because the benefit was "Minuscule" at best, back then and nothing has changed today. The financial consequences to produce 10% Ethanol are enormous, it has cause the price of groceries to increase. What is also not factored in is how much energy does it take to plant, harvest, and distill all the corn dedicated for Ethanol production? Whatever that amount is subtract it from the "Nan-0-Scale" of benefits. Ethanol is a Lose-Lose a little more to save less solution. Gasoline as a "Supplement" to Ethanol is an improvement to ethanol as in the form of E85. An effort of producing 500-1,000% more ethanol than what we are now producing is the "Challenge" that seems out of reach. If Ethanol is to be used as an "VIABLE" Alternative energy source rather than a energy "Supplement" as it is today. Lets not misunderstand my point, I did not say not to use Ethanol. What I did write is not to mix it into the gasoline supply at 10%. I also said the best use is to mix 15% gasoline into the Ethanol as E85, the better way to blend. "Because" Gasoline improves the performance of Ethanol "BUT" mixing 10% Ethanol degrades Gasoline. In 2015 Obama pushed for an E15 fuel mandate. This is proof that he and his administration does not understand ethanol as they wish to make the mistake even bigger than it already is.

    Well, instead of "stuffing" us with all the corn starch used in unhealthy and fattening foods, diverting some of the corn harvest to ethanol production would't be such a bad idea afterall... Of course, as below posts are remarking, will have multiple side effects on economies here and there...but we, THE CONSUMERS, are always screwed in a way or another! At least we could have a liiiiittle bit less pollution and a liiiittle less unhealthy foods, no?

  • @EpicThe112

    True and I think the US should import Brazilian Ethanol because corn prices are up going up since they are diverted towards Ethanol production, and only Sugarcane ethanol is more fuel efficient than corn ethanol. The us should remove the tariff on Brazilian ethanol because it will free the US from Oil dependency

    How much feed corn do you eat? The starch can be removed from grain as alcohol and then the left overs can be fed to cattle as quality feed. The starch is hard on cattle anyway. However, Corn ethanol is one of the least efficient methods of making fuel alcohol. These plants could be converted to higher efficiency ethanol producers with better feedstock selection.
