Baseline measurements of ethene in 2002: Implications for increased ethanol use and biomass burning on air quality and ecosystems [PDF]
, 2012 While it is well known that combustion of ethanol as a biofuel will lead to enhanced emissions of methane, ethene (ethylene), acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, and oxides of nitrogen (primarily NO) when compared to gasoline alone, especially during cold starts

Reevaluating the Activity of ZIF‐8 Based FeNCs for Electrochemical Ammonia Production
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Though receiving much attention, the field of electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) to ammonia is marked by doubts about whether this reaction is possible in aqueous media. This work sheds light on this question for iron single‐atom on N‐doped carbon (FeNC) catalysts—a class of well‐known catalysts that is also worth testing for the sister

Maintaining Brazil's ethanol fuel momentum [PDF]
MRS Bulletin, 2010 The 1973–1974 First Energy Crisis was a cloud with a silver lining for Brazil. A severe negative balance of payments, as oil prices more than quadrupled, stimulated the birth of a bioethanol initiative based on fermented sugarcane, which vaulted the country into today's position as a world leader in the quest for renewable energy that promises to be ...

Can the U.S. Ethanol Industry Compete in the Alternative Fuels' Market? [PDF]
The U.S. ethanol fuel industry has experienced preferential treatment from federal and state governments ever since the Energy Tax Act of 1978 exempted 10% ethanol/gasoline blend (gasohol) from the federal excise tax.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A rationally engineered bifunctional photocatalyst is reported, which achieves simultaneous selective oxidation of biomass‐derived 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5‐diformylfuran (DFF) and efficient H2 evolution. By precisely positioning Au and Co3O4 on Zn3In2S6 nanosheet, dual interfacial electric fields are well constructed to spatially separate ...

THE POTENTIAL VIABILITY OF BIOMASS ETHANOL AS A RENEWABLE FUEL SOURCE: A DISCUSSION [PDF]
Much attention has been paid to alternative fuel sources of late. Ethanol has been a politically popular alternative fuel additive and has recently been pushed to the forefront as a leading replacement to MTBE as an oxygenate.
