Talk:Ethanol fuel in the United States

message: Concerns that should be addressed:
Driving up Food Prices
Potentially Causes More Global Warming than it Eliminates (once you consider what is required to produce it)
Subsidies many consider wasteful
Increases Erosion
Encourages Deforestation
etc.

thread_title: Needs Criticism Section

message: Distiller's Grain is a byproduct of corn ethanol production.  It is a dark yellow substance that can be fed to cattle.  The debate about energy balance with respect to corn ethanol production overlooks the fact that the feed value of corn is not lost.  It simply becomes better suited for cattle consumption (as opposed to hogs).  Furthermore, it seems highly doubtful that one could estimate with great accuracy the amount of diesel fuel and gasoline needed to manage all of the corn acres in the country.  Not only does the number of corn acres planted vary considerably from year to year, but the study implies that corn farmers do not also farm other crops: soybeans, alfalfa, etc.  Inevitably, the amount of fuel used to plant at least some of these non-corn acres will be included.  One must also consider the ever-consolidating and increasingly energy-efficient nature of American agriculture.  One might reasonably infer that ag subsidies, in their current form, slow this process down, hampering efforts to move the energy balance in ethanol's direction.

Please read the Article.  Corn to Ethanol has been proven INEFFECTIVE as TOO MUCH ENERGY required to produce less Ethanol than Sugarcane to Ethanol.  Sugarcane to Ethanol requires less Energy to produce than Corn to Ethanol.  See the Wikipedia Article Ethanol Fuel in Brazil.
Regarding the amount of corn produced, today's computer assisted, GPS assisted, semi automated farming is pretty accurate as determining yields.  The biggest problem is another matter pertaining to patented GMO seeds; and patent violations due to things like "cross pollination" and other things that independent farmers cannot control be get lawsuits routinely filed against them by the Big Agri Businesses.
The largest problem with Highly Effective Sugarcane to Ethanol was the Politics.  As Demorat President Obama's Illinois Corn to Ethanol Lobby Versus at that time Republican Louisiana's and Florida's Sugarcane to Ethanol Industry.  This is why the U.S. Sugar Industry's Federal Subsidizes ended up being Diverted from the U.S. Sugarcane to Ethanol Industry to the U.S. Corn to Ethanol Industry, resulting in the Democrat U.S. Island State of Hawaii's Sugar Industry being killed off.  The other Politically motivated diversion was the Federal Subsidizes to GE Lousisiana to design, build, Safer Nuclear Power, Generation 3 with Nuclear Waste Recycling to replace the 104 Obsolete Unsafe U.S. Nuclear Reactors of the same design as the Nuclear Reactors involved in the Fukishima Disaster; the current unsafe U.S. Nuclear Reactors were originally design to produce lots of Weapons Grade Uranium and Plutonium, that now must be put into secure vaults as nuclear waste, this is an example of just how much U.S. Politicians really don't care.

thread_title: The FUTURE of CORN ETHANOL for the forseeable future

message: Personally, I think corn ethanol currently is viable. But while the short term remanes debatable. I really have to disagree about the long term. Corn Ethanol will become a viable and energy eficant comodity in the future. 
Currently it takes  about 1 unit of petroleum to grow and process 1.5 units of corn ethanol but I’m pretty sure that with the 
# Advent and promotion of cheaper non-petroleum fertilizers and herbicides.
# Increased corn acreage from new methods of farming. 
# Farming equipment and machinery that runs on E85.
# Renewable sources of electricity for power. 
# New more efficient and coast effective production processes and manufacturing methods being developed.
# The discovery of new and better Enzymes for chemical processing, 
The creation of corn ethanol will become a much more energy efficant and coast effective process leaving a greatly reduced environmental footprint. 
All these technologies are curently being developed and progressing, and corn ethanol will become a much more viable product, and a great boon to our economy, our environment and our society. 
With all these technologies under development, in just 30 years it will take just 1 unit of petroleum to grow and process at least 5 units of corn ethanol. 
Making corn ethanol in the furture a truly environmentally friendly and energy efficiant alternative to petroleum and gasoline, and turning corn ethanol into truly an energy sorce and not just an alternative means of procecing or storing oil energy. 
Besides it beats being a puppet to the oil companies.

thread_title:  Future developments 

message: I will keep coming back to this, but it seems very POV toward Pimentel and Pitzek. They really aren't very highly regarded by anyone but detractors. For a tiny bit more credibility, you might look at the Earth policy Institute, but when I spoke to Lester Brown he explained the coming war between the coasts and the Midwest. I got off the phone before he used the word "Thunderdome." Anyway, I will try and help clean this up as I have time. Menkatopia 16:57, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: This needs a lot of work

message: Is there any reason why everyone is considering only the energy efficiency of Ethanol? There are other benefits to using E85 and even E10:
# Crude oil is a limited resource. There is a certain amount of it and the Earth won't be making any more for a long time. We can grow more corn or whatever other vegetable matter we'd like to make ethanol from. If (unrealistically) everyone started using E85 tomorrow instead of gasoline, the existing world supply of crude oil would last close to twice as long, possibly many decades or even centuries longer.
# The use of E85 decreases the US reliance on crude oil from foreign sources. The US capacity to harvest crude oil pales in comparison to its demand for it. We give away loads of wheat and corn to foreign countries. We could instead use the wheat and corn to produce ethanol and reduce our trade imbalance.
# The argument has been made that production of gasoline from crude oil is 100% efficient because it's the only thing we do with crude oil. That's an argument to maintain the status quo. If we re-tooled our production capacity for ethanol, we may find ways to improve the efficiency of the process and make it better to produce than oil. Over time, we could come to consider production of ethanol 100% efficient because that's the way we're used to looking at things.
Maybe it's not all about the numbers.64.81.103.70 02:43, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Other Issues?

message: Since Pimentel seems to be about the only still pushing this concept of a negative energy balance with ethanol (with the assistance of Patzek) perhaps it would be in our best interests to have full disclosure here.
Patzek worked for Shell Oil Company as a researcher, consultant, and expert witness. He founded and directs the UC Oil Consortium, which is mainly funded by the oil industry at the rate of US$60,000-120,000 per company per year.
Pimentel has been basing his numerous studies on corn yeilds from 1980 with a refusal to admit yeilds have increased a great deal in the last 25 years.  He also bases his studies on other figures from the late 80s and early 90s and even when pointed out he refused to update them and instead uses the same debunked figures in study after study.
Clearly this guy has a chip on his shoulder, and I suspect that chip is being funded by the oil companies.
Here is one interesting quote I found:  "This [Pimentel's] report was debunked by, among others, Michael Wang and Dan Santini of the Center for Transportation Research, Argonne National Laboratory, who conducted a series of detailed analyses on energy and emission impacts of corn ethanol from 1997 through 1999. [...]Only Dr. Pimentel disagrees with this analysis. But his outdated work has been refuted by experts from entities as diverse as the USDA, DOE, Argonne National Laboratory, Michigan State University, and the Colorado School of Mines."
If we are going to tell the whole story, there should be at least some reference to the perceived bias of Pimentel and Patzek especially when so many studies have refuted their claims.  This isn't as if the USDA study is the only one out there....and it should be disclosed.

thread_title: Future in doubt

message: These are problematic because of poor labeling.  Specifically the labeling on the pump. The article I referenced had the misconception that people were putting in the wrong type of fuel because they didn't realize that their vehicle wouldn't run with high ethanol fuels. This is wrong. People are putting in the wrong fuel because the pumps are so poorly labelled, they can't figure out which selection dispenses the zero percent or the 10 percent blends.  
The pump I encountered had no selections labelled 'regular unleaded', 'no ethanol', or '10% ethanol', as one would have expected. Plus the E85 selection was set apart from the rest, making it appear that it was the proper selection for usual, non-flex-fuel vehicles, not the others. Really bad human factors engineering. I was only able to deduce which selection to choose by reading the fine print on the pumps AND using a process of elimination (its not this one, not this one, etc).
The referenced article references their solution to the problem was to put yellow caps on flex fuel vehicles.  This is not a solution.  The the people who don't have flex fuel vehicles are the ones that need know which selections have high ethanol blends. But they also don't have the yellow on their gas caps. The yellow has no particular meaning to these people. Only people with flex-fuel vehicles would be associating the yellow with high ethanol blends, but for them, any selection would work. The problem of people dispensing the wrong fuel in blender pumps is NOT solved.  --Aflafla1 (talk) 02:05, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: First, these article is not about blender pumps, so such edit, if supported by reliable sources, belong elsewhere. Second, any notable issue has room in Wikipedia, but such notability has to be supported by WP:Reliable sources, please check the policy. Anecdotal content or personal experience does not meet the notability criteria, Wiki is not a blog. As an example, if drivers confused the gasoline pump with the diesel pump, this incident is no material for Wikipedia. I also know of a friend that filled the tank with E85 instead of regular gasoline, but again this is no material for Wikipedia. This is the reason for reversing your edit.

thread_title:  Blender Pumps 

message: From the trends section of the article....
"These states, particularly Minnesota, have had substantially more success in promoting ethanol usage, and have accumulated substantial environmental and economic benefits as a result.[32]"
This is a hanging inuendo...it needs to be supported by examples. The article looks promising from the first page, but I dont have time to read it to see if the assertion is true. The person who inserted this sentence and reference should have given an example from the article rather than making the assertion that the article might say something useful. After all, this is an encyclopedia that contains facts, not references to where facts might be found.
Thank you in advance.

replies: text: The reference states that Minnesota's "remarkable benefits" are the amount of ethanol produced, the amount of ethanol-blended fuel, and a footnote says one city is compliant with a basic CO pollution standard.  (Minnesota will require E20 at all stations by August 2013, so the ethanol numbers shouldn't be remarkable -- but maybe I'm biased since my 2009 & 2012 cars can't use more than E10). 66.87.7.56 (talk) 03:18, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Check the article Common ethanol fuel mixtures, the sections E15, and the end of E20, E25 provide a better explanation. Cars manufactured for E10 are being tested for higher ethanol blends. E15 was approved by EPA for models 2001 and newer, and there is controversy around this issue (the article is not updated though).--Mariordo (talk) 03:23, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, but it doesn't explain why warranties like mine require using blends containing no more than 10% ethanol.   I see the tests in the articles and their references, but I can't find results of any durability testing with the higher ethanol blends.  One report claims to have done engine durability testing, but states it only put 100 to 200 miles on each car.  The EPA has standard tests for 150,000 mile emission systems durability -- hasn't anyone tested with E20/etc? 66.87.2.29 (talk) 02:52, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, but that is all there is from reliable sources. IMHO carmakers do not want to take any chances and are sticking with the old E10 maximum, even despite EPA more extensive testing with E15. As for E20/E25 I can tell you about my personal experience. I have a 2004 Volvo S40 I bought in the US (made in Canada) and have used in Brazil since mid 2006 with Brazilian E25 (for around 50,000 miles now) without any problem other than a bit lower fuel economy as compared with the MPG the car was delivering in the US. When I just imported the car the Brazilian dealer's advice was not to make any adjustments, and has been working just fine. Also, did you know that there are more than 30 million light vehicles in Brazil running on E25 for decades with no problem (E20 since last year), and my understanding is that only flex-fuel need some minor adjustments, but in Brazil the purchase price of a regular gasoline-only vehicle is the same as their E100 flex-fuel vehicles (like in the US now). This is just anecdotal evidence to satisfy your curiosity, please by no means take it as valid technical/scientific conclusion.--Mariordo (talk) 04:06, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
