Cheap Biodiesel Fuels do not contain Petroleum. Biodiesel is an alternative fuel that comes from 100% renewable resources. Biodiesel burns cleanly. This means it's an environmentally friendly product. Cheap Biodiesel Fuels do not contain petroleum however it can be mixed with petroleum. Biodiesel helps your car run smoother and keeps it better lubricated and it's been proven to be safe for the environment. We're going to help you with the most inexpensive and safest way to make Biodiesel right from your own home.

(Check This Out) this is no joke, Davids Making Algae to Biodiesel at Home has solved One of the big problems of there simply being no books on the subject. Before to get all the info you had to collect a dozen different books, from a dozen different and competing fields, some highly technical, and wade hip-deep into the land of the techno-jargon. He simply explains technical stuff simply to help others create their own energy at home. http://ping.fm/atihC

Meet Fuel Director Josh Tickell, Then Go See His Film
Meet Fuel Director Josh Tickell, Then Go See His Film
The documentary Fuel opened in Portland last weekend, the first city to host screenings of the film, which shows a way out of our country's addiction to oil. It did so well here, it's been held over--which has director Josh Tickell thrilled. He's hoping his film will follow in the footsteps of An Inconvenient Truth: That documentary "went to 585 screens and 2 million people saw it in the theater," Tickell tells the Mercury. "And with that 2 million people, a critical mass was formed." He's hoping his film--which praises biodiesel, and explains commercially and environmentally viable ways to switch our country over to this more sustainable source of energy--sparks a similar "revolution."
Here's the trailer. And after the cut, check out more from my interview with Tickell, who was in Seattle earlier this week for that city's premiere. He gives Portland kudos for some of our green initiatives, tells Congress what they can do with $25 billion instead of giving it to Detroit, and explains what has to happen to cut the US's petroleum use by 80 percent.

What Do You Think is the Best Feedstock for Biodiesel Production?
To think of Algae as a solution to Energy problems imagine this. 2.25 acres
of soybean can create 2 drums (55 gallons) of Biodiesel, while 2.25 acres of
micro Algae can produce a jumbo railcar (23,000 gallons) of Biodiesel.
Oil palm 635 gal/acre
Jatropha 202 gallons/acre
Tung oil tree 100gal/acre
Some sources on the internet say that Algae production that high is untrue, what do you think?

Top 3 Reasons Why Algae Is The New Biofuel!?
Top 3 Reasons Why Algae Is The New Biofuel!? by Victor Garlington
Have you ever gone fishing only to discover that your favorite fishing hole was over grown with algae? Well now they are using that same green algae to power your diesel engine truck. That’s right the algae grown in ponds can be converted to oil and the oil refined into Biodiesel. Algae have the potential to evolve into a mainstream fuel feedstock. Algae are not a food crops, they grow fast and algae remove massive amounts of carbon dioxide from the air.
1. Algae are not food crops
Algae are not food crops and there has been a huge debate and more focus on the food vs. fuel question. Some critics say agricultural based crops are not sustainable as a fuel source. Corn and Soybeans are being used currently as Biofuel which some say are the blame for higher food prices. For example; some waste collections companies have seen the cost of WVO (Waste vegetable oil) or yellow grease increase to an all time high worth as much as $3.50 cents per gallon. Hey!! Correct me if my math is a little off, but isn’t that almost the same price as a gallon of diesel fuel? Algae farms can produce 100 times more oil per acre than traditional oil crops (such as soy oil), which can be converted to Biodiesel.
2. Algae grow fast
Algae grow fast. Algae can be grown especially well in desert states that have plenty of sunshine and access to water unusable for drinking. Because of the high salt content in algae, saltwater can be used more economically than fresh water for optimal growth. Meaning our sunny southern states with saline aquifers will make fast and efficient locations to grow algae on commercial farms.
3. Algae remove massive amounts of CO2
Algae remove massive amounts of CO2 (Carbon dioxide) from the air. Algae farms are glutton eaters of CO2 gas providing a means for recycling waste carbon dioxide from fossil fuel combustion. It is possible to sequester as much as one billion tons of CO2 per year from algae farms. The United States has one energy plant that produces 25.3 millions tons of CO2 by itself. This new technology has attracted companies that need inexpensive CO2 sequestration solutions. Algae was responsible for creating the Earth's oxygen atmosphere three billion years ago and it took around two billion years to form the modern atmosphere with 20 percent oxygen. Without algae we would not be here.
Algae Biofuel will play a very important part in meeting the worlds growing energy need, Algae has a place in not only our past, but in our future as well.

Top 3 Reasons Why Alternative Fuels Work For You
Top 3 Reasons Why Alternative Fuels Work For You
Fuel cost are rising at record highs around the world. Scientist and entrepreneurs are searching for solutions that will ease the pain at the gas pump. Alternative fuels are the answer, with options for the masses.
1. Fuel cost
Fuel Cost are higher than ever, the world is now searching for alternative solutions to the high demand and high price of petroleum based fuel.
2. Making Biodiesel at Home
People have looked at making biodiesel at home as an extreme alternative to commercially available fuel. This is no longer the case, as fuel prices have skyrocketed making Biodiesel at home is now much easier with the available kits that can be purchased. Residential Biodiesel kits and entry-level commercial production systems are now widely available. Companies like www.70centsagallon.com offers a variety of options to meet the budget and needs of everyone. The use of these systems ranges from the Cummins diesel engine owner to commercial fleet and maintenance managers. They all are looking for a safe, easy and effective solution to relieve the cost of high diesel fuel.
3. Trucks
Any truck with a diesel engine can use Biodiesel safely and economically with Biodiesel that is made on-site by its owner operator. No matter if you have a Ford, Dodge, Chevy or foreign diesel truck, they all can benefit from the use of Biodiesel. Truck owners cannot tell the difference in performance and state their vehicles have more power and run better with less noise. Commercial truck owners are now converts to the benefits of Biodiesel as seen at www.biotrucker.com.
Alternative fuels offer multiple solutions to serve the needs of the world. Necessity has forced new innovations around the world, to include using garbage, H20, used cooking oil and algae for new fuel sources. This generation will make a difference in the next few years with new technologies that will help mother earth be a greener planet for us all.

The gas tank size of a school bus & fuel cost?
"What is the gas tank size of a 44 passenger school bus have?"
INTERNATIONAL 3400 CHASSIS WEIGHTS WITH ALTERNATE Fuel Tanks
The regular size of a school bus gas tank is 35gallons and can be fitted wih 100 gallon tanks also:
Base Weight 35 Gallons RSM 65 Gallons RSM 40 Gallons BTR * 100 Gallons BTR
These buses use allot of gas and put out allot of bad emissions that our
children have to breathe.
The cost of fuel is a huge concern now to our city operators causing some to
reduce service and even suspend service during certain days of the week because
of the fuel cost. Petroleum diesel at $4.60 a gallon will cost the city $161.00 dollars
just to fill up one bus. Multiply this cost times a Dallas County Schools fleet
One of the 10 largest transportations fleets (1200+ buses) in the nation that skyrockets to
$192.000. The real question is how much gas mileage are these buses getting and how much bad emissions are they putting in our environment. Can our nations school bus fleet increase mileage and decrease emissions?
