biodiesel plant cost
Is Biodiesel the cure to decrease pollution in reality?

Biodesel reqiures land to be cultivate, that means it will occupy the area of agricultural farms which is not possible, since we need more food to feed our growing population. so the other option is to clear forest area to cultivate these plants, it is not wise to go for biodiesel at the cost of forest area. also, the number of vehicle is increasing day by day that means the emmission of pollutant will increase. it is better to go for renewable source of energy than the biodiesel.

No, its not the solution. First things first.

Growing crops to convert to fuel ends up competing with crops grown to be used as food. The end result is that the price of food goes through the roof because farmers are making more from growing fuel crops. That’s not ever going to be an acceptable situation.

The answer is hydrogen. Hydrogen can be used in existing internal combustion engines. You simply have to change the timing of the engine. Most gasoline and diesel engine ignite the fuel well before the stroke of the engine reaches top dead center. The result is that most of the power generated is lost due to simple counter forces applied to the crankshaft of the vehicle. The end result is that you get about a 25% eefficiency from those engines.

Now, change the timing and add a hydrogen fuel supply. Hydrogen burns much faster than gas or diesel and the timing of the engine has to change to take that into account. You ignite the hydrogen after the engine passes top dead center, you gain back all the power that you lost to counter forces and the efficiency of the engine goes up above 50%.

This doesnt even take into account the fact that hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. Setup a solar power plant and use its power output to make nothing but hydrogen. Bang, no continuing costs and you have paid for the plant within a couple of years. You can build the plant in the middle of the desert so you arent fighting for crop lands. You help clean up the environment and the price of food goes down because there is more of it available.
