Converting a Car to Biodiesel

A car running on biodiesel can save a lot of gas for its owner. Not only that, but this alternative fuel emits less carbon dioxide, making it more environmentally friendly than an engine which runs on conventional fossil fuel. A regular car, running with a diesel engine, can run on biodiesel, which is a non-petroleum … Read more

Understanding Biodiesel Filters

Biodiesel fuel has been gaining some attention as a worthy alternative to petroleum fuel for some time now.  But the actual procedure in processing the biodiesel can be risky as it can considerably damage your engine or any machinery that is associated with the biodiesel usage unless there is proper filtering. This is the primary … Read more

Biodiesel

Oil and its alternatives, such as biodiesel, are continuously in the news.  When oil prices go up, it seems that everyone is affected.  Many countries’ economies depend on oil.  And this is one reason why people are looking for a cleaner and cheaper alternatives to our conventional fossil fuels. One of these alternative forms of … Read more

A Solar Oven: Cooking with the Sun

A solar oven is a device that harnesses sunlight to create heat energy. It doesn’t use any fuel, and it doesn’t cost a thing to operate it. It can help slow down the deforestation and desertification caused by harvesting natural resources which are used in conventional fuel production. In theory, no more trees would be cut for use in making charcoal, if everyone switched to using solar ovens. And while the use of a solar oven is not necessarily feasible under all circumstances, a better understanding of their use can open up many doors and new possibilities.

The Uses of Fuel Cells

An Alternative Energy Solution It is a well known fact that fuel cells are a potential alternative to the internal combustion engine. In fact, even though fuel cells are still in their pilot stages of development, many car manufacturers have prototype vehicles that operate on fuel cells. The application of fuel cells is, however, far … Read more

Fuel Cells, an Alternative Energy Source to Power our Nation

What are fuel cells? Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that combine hydrogen and oxygen in order to produce electricity. During the power generation cycle, water and heat are produced as a by-products.  This is a far more ideal byproduct than the unclean emissions which are created by other methods of generating electricity. Fuel Cells will … Read more

Thin Film Solar Panels

What are thin film solar panels, and what could possibly be so exciting about them? Thin film solar panels operate in the same manner that regular solar panels do, the only difference being that they are a lot thinner and require far less materials and energy for construction. This might not sound extremely spectacular, but … Read more

The Solar Tower

A solar tower is a device that converts solar thermal energy (heat from the sun) into electricity. Solar towers are suitable for large-scale power generation. The Basic Component Parts of a Solar Tower Energy Plant: Solar Tower – The solar tower is simply a large structure with a boiler (a tank used to heat liquids) … Read more
