4 Good Things About Biofuel

Biofuel is yet another possible energy source we can have for the future. Many people still don’t know what biofuel is, though! Coal and oil are fossil fuels, they’re made from long-dead plants and animals. Biofuel is the same thing, except that they come from recently dead plants and other similar material. You can even use algae to make it, and avoid using foodstuffs that people need more!

We’ve been using biofuels for a long time now, as wood we burn in stoves. Ethanol and vegetable oil are more examples. How are they better than biofuel, though? Let us compare normal diesel gas and bio-diesel.

1. Biodiesel is non-toxic and biodegradable! Much safer for humans! It has zero emission as well. The exhaust actually smells rather nice!

2. It is harder to burn. When a car filled with biodiesel crashes, it’s not likely to explode! It’s also safer to transport because of this.

3. It can run in any normal diesel engine! No modifications needed! It can even be mixed or blended with normal diesel very easily with no problems. Many countries already do this.

4. It’s good for your vehicle! Biodiesel lubricates the engine more, thus extending life and requiring less maintenance.

How about you? What do you think of biofuel?
