MD071 – E85 Ethanol Powered Cars at Conserv Fuel
<-- View our previous episode!
There’s a new gas station in town, and while it may look a little odd you may already have a car that can take advantage of cleaner fuel! We checked out the local Conserv Fuel station to learn more about how ethanol works, and when you can expect one in your neighborhood!

I think biodiesel might be better and cheaper, than ethanol but I could be wrong..

Ethanol sounds great for the environment but if you do a little research you will see that the production of ethanol pollute more than normal fuel… so it need improvment

I am from Brazil, Here we produce a lot of ethanol. 90% os new cars come with the flex fuel system.
Biodiesel is more expensive to produce, you have to use soy bean, on the other hand with ethanol you can you sugarcane.
Here we dont you corn, only sugarcane, because its a lot cheaper and produces a lot more ethanol per area of crop.

E85 seems like the worse alternative to petrol that they’ve come up with lately. It isn’t any better for the environment and drives up prices of many food items, and while it is cheaper if you have a station near you, your miles per gallon is much lower than petrol. E85 is great for performance sports cars as it’s a higher octane, but it’s completely stupid to use in normal vehicles.

I think E85 is just a beginning. It’s better than doing nothing. People will find a way to improve all disadvantages of E85.

Yeah glad to see other means for fuel are being explored. The problem is raising prices of corn, etc change their plans quickly and then they have to spend time exploring other items.

Ethanol is just a stop-gap solution until fuel cell or another technology takes over.

If fact, it’ s a great recipe for clean living and as long as you cook all meat and vegetables before adding egg, the combinations are endless. Rocket is a great vegetable as it contains iron, folate, calcium, vitamins C, beta- carotene and K. Potato…

Im not really into E85, if you guys only see how to produce ethanol just to power up a car. Anyways, im into hydro powered cars right now. It cost way to low for an ordinary fuel and at the same time it doesn’t pollute our surroundings.

I am currently reading it on my Blackberry and will scan it once I get home. I love your site and marketing strategy. Check out my website if you get a chance, just click on name. (I don’t want to leave a link, it looks too spammy)
