Recently, we had a thread about ethanol and its environmental effects.
There was a study recently commissioned in Alberta to look at biofuels.
This included the environmental impact of ethanol use and production.
The executive summary is athttp://www.aia.ab.ca/policy/andthe full

in case there is still some interest.


I know it isn't ethanol, but in a related subject:http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=33361

Thermal Depolymerization (TPD) is not just for the "fat" as this
article states. It actually takes any carbon-based feedstock, so any
biproduct coming from the processing plant, including the water to
hose it down every day (they can use it in the system as the vector
for the ground up feedstock). One of the better uses I've seen is
making diesel out of raw sewage.
Does it still pollute? Yes, but a bit less polluting (no sulfur) than
diesel made from crude. Right now, about 7% of the energy from the
feedstock goes to run the plant, after that its all gravy. Black
gravy.

There's a plant in Missouri thats allready working. It turns turkey
parts into oil.

Maby Ben Franklin was right. If the turkey saves us from dependance on
foreign oil maby it should be our national bird.
If you can use turkeys you can use stray dogs, carp, people. ....
