Biofuel




 * Biofuel ** is one of more common alternatives to petroleum that is continuously being developed. Biofuel is used in many different ways including the heating of homes, to power vehicles, and for cooking. (Hempcar)

**Biodisel** is one of the most commonly used energy source for vehicles in Europe. This is very efficient and clean way to provide energy to cars and buses. Pure biodisel is proven to produce the least amount of emission. Biodiesel is safe to handle and transport because it is as biodegradable as sugar, 10 times less toxic than table salt, and has a high flashpoint of about 300 F (about 149˚C) which is much higher than regular disel created and derived from petroleum.


 * Bioalchohol ** can be used as a direct replacement of gasoline. At numerous times, ethanol is blended with gasoline when sold.

Similarly, vegetable oil, **biogas **, and **bioethers ** are few of the many ways biofuel is used to substitude fuel.

In many different ways and forms, biofuels provide and show us that a substitute does indeed exist for petroleum and that becoming independent from petroleum is not an impossible thing.
