Challenge for this Century

 

A new automotive fuel cell reformer can convert ethanol (fuel made from corn) into hydrogen, used to power an electronic fuel cell. Ethanol could make the transition from gasoline oxygenate, (which creates a much cleaner burning fuel), to a primary fuel source. Millions of gallons of ethanol per year are blended into gasoline right now, leaving us with better air quality.

Soybeans are past the development stage. The oil, after the glycerin has been removed, has proven to be a tremendous fuel and lubricant. Referred to as BIODIESEL, the fuel can reduce particulate matter emissions and help stabilize greenhouse gasses. It can be burned in diesel engines, without modification. Soy oil can be formulated into a motor oil, hydraulic oil, and grease. After this oil has been used, it is NOT considered a HAZARDOUS WASTE. Joe Jobe, Executive Director of the National Biodiesel Board, said about 20 major regulated fleets have begun using BIODIESEL.

Chicago has field tested more than 100,000 miles in CTA busses, as well as the Police Marine Unit, to help keep Lake Michigan clean.

The FDA has announced that 25 grams of soy protein, per day, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. A University of Kentucky analysis tied many small studies together, and demonstrated a marked response to soybeans in the diet. A recent report in the Archives of Internal Medicine, reported a lowering of LDL (bad cholesterol), and that HDL, (good cholesterol), did not fall.

Some cities have mandated clean air and water regulations. Ethanol and Biodiesel are ready NOW, to help do just that!

These are such exciting and important happenings, for people and planet; will we allow new discoveries, such as these, to be mired in controversy, as we have with the GMO issue? Or will we first, find out what end users want, and let them decide how best we can serve them with the newest technologies and work together. Can we really let the open market work? Or is it already to complicated?
