Hi,
I got curious about bio-fuels,especially bio-diesel as we began to discuss
about it on a state level here at us.
So I would ask for help from someone experienced in bio-fuels, who would be
interested in helping me to start up a new energy production facility.I am
interested in
How about the price isn't going up, the value of the dollar is coming
down. We won't be getting cheap imports much longer, but foreign
markets will be opening up to us.

My question is: Are (or rather, Would) we be crossing ethical lines by
producing biodiesel commercially (read: for profit)?
There's nothing wrong with making money..., only how you make it and what
you do with it.
Far less of an ethical dilemma to sell to an owner of a bus
I got this enquiry below, but it baffles my brain cell. Would the
all-wise among us be able to shed the clear light of reason, if not
unbaffle my brain cell? Thankyou!

Does anyone recall a old post (about 2-3 months ago) about someone
taking an older VW rabbit or some other VW and taking out the torque
converter (or the clutch) and replacing it with an electric motor.
The idea was a do it yourself hybrid vehicle. I Think it was a cross
post from another
If you can sell your biodiesel and make a profit that is acceptable for
you, please sell it. The morality does not rest with who is using it, it is
rather that someone is prepared to use it. It is not like you are giving
someone an advantage or a favor. It is that someone has moral enough
Since when has it been immoral to make a profit in this country from a
legitimate enterprise? There are a lot of people that would prefer to run
Bio but would not or will not make there own ever. I would suggest you look
into our wonderful government regulations before you get to far in.
If it is in fact running hotter, you could use a water injection system
to cool it down (and also increase efficiency a bit)
..or can you not do this with a diesel as you can with a gasoline engine?

Hi MM
Although I am not buying that production of ethanol requires more
energy than it
produces,
It could do - did you see this thread?

Well, I've gotten the following responses to my
question:
1. soybean oil is goign up in price.
2. The dollar is coming down (presumably making
brazilian etc. soybean oil more costly).
3. Producers are price gouging because the market
will bear it.

Maybe more people are using biodiesel, my kids school bus now runs on
biodiesel, that is in Phoenix AZ. Supply and demand!!! We need to start making
more and start using more beneficial plants, like HEMP Then we can produce
a highquality product for a lower cost than any type of petroleum

No, it's not a fact.

I misunderstood, probably because I read one of the answers who assume that
this was the question, before I answered.

Hi,
As for Linux, or more specificaly GPL license that is used
in Open Source Software is Free. Please note the Free here
is defined as in Freedom, it does not mean it is free of cost.
Every one has freedom to make changes to source, but you
need to release your changes to the public uder
acceptable result of free-market forces at work? Or would it be a
case for regulation, perhaps with the judicious use of suibsidies in
some aspects of the picture?
Funny how those health-care cost figures are so similar to the
energy-use comparisons - the US uses twice as much as the other
19 matches
