Ethanol offers positive environmental impact

Regardless of rising fuel costs, political agendas or decreasing fossil fuel resources, the environmental advantages of ethanol remain undisputed. Biofuel conserves natural resources by using renewable organic products, and burning and producing ethanol is one of the cleanest fuel processes available.

“The primary advantage of ethanol is that it improves combustion of hydrocarbons,” said Clark Midkiff, Director for the Center of Advanced Vehicle Technology and professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alabama.
