Biofuel Assessment Help! (1 Viewer)

[cmcdougall]

i have a question in an assessment i don't understand. It says to compare two fuels (ethanol and petroleum) by sources, energy content ect... the one i am having trouble with is distribution.

Can any help please?

Don't meant to be rude, but can you post the entire question? Answer can vary drastically with different wording of the question.

eerr distribution?
as far as i know petroleum is refined from crude oil and then distributed as leaded/unleaded petrol
whereas fuel made from ethanol is more commonly seen in the form of lpg

other than that i dont think i can help you

U can start by discussing the comparative heats of combustion. Then explaining the different processes in the manufacture of both fuels. U can also assess the environmental impacts of each fuel. Then compare all this in detail. go to conquering chemistry for the use of ethanol as a fuel. it will give u enough detail to discuss.
