[biofuel] Re: Ethanol from bread waste?
I used to make moonshine in the '70's. Started out experimenting for fuel, but its so much work with so little pay off that it was better to drink the stuff. 100 proof was easy, I would get a couple of mason jars from 20 galons of "beer". I used everything from sugar & yeast to pure corn sour mash. Used to spit it into the fire to impress my friends. Sugar beets are pretty promising. Bread should work, it will smell like a bakery. Another source; undrank soda pop. Can't tell you how many cokes I've poured out at parties. Imagine a day when you pour your left over sodas or beer out before throwing the can in the recycle bin. Bars could be a good source. Imagine developing collection systems behind the bar for the bartenders to pour left over beer into for you to collect later. Half the work would already be done for you! Then its all in the distillation process. You also might want to consider solar stills & vacuum stills to save on heating fuel. A vacuum solar still would be fantastic. (vacuum's lower the boiling point). I kind of agree with the sarcastic response about feeding pigs. Some bread companies collect used bread & dry it into crutons. The longer something can remain in the food chain the better, its just a shame we can't dry it or make stuffing & send it to 3rd world countries. If its just going into the trash then, go for it.

Or feed all the sweets to pigs, get 5 pounds of pork for every 25 pounds of twinkies. Collect the methane and heat your house. A pig eating that much sugar would get pretty fat, you could get 10 gallons of fuel out of every pig. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor -~--> Get A Free Psychic Reading!
