Rising Fuel Costs

• Between 1997 and June 2000, in Missouri
  total fuel costs per farm have increased 24.5.
• Based on June 2000 prices, it is estimated
  that average Missouri farm total fuel expenditure
  is 3222.70 per farm per year and consumes 19.64
  of farm income.

4
Rising Diesel Costs
Farm expenditures for diesel account for 63 of
farm fuel expenses
Based on June 2000 prices, it is estimated that
average farm gasoline expenditures will reach
1924.51 per farm per year and consume 11.73 of
farm income.
5
Rising Gasoline Costs

• Farm expenditures for gasoline account for
  37 of farm fuel expenses
• Based on June 2000 prices, it is estimated
  that average farm gasoline expenditures will
  reach 1298.19 per farm per year and consume
  7.91 of farm income.

Biofuels

What are BioFuels?
Biofuels are alcohols, ethers, esters, and other
chemicals made from cellulosic biomass such as
herbaceous and woody plants, agricultural and
forestry residues, and a large portion of
municipal solid and industrial waste. Two most
common types of biofuels Ethanol Biodiesel

Ethanol
How can we use it?
1.5 billion gallons are added to gasoline in the
U.S. each year to improve vehicle performance and
reduce air pollution. In some areas, ethanol is
blended to form an E10 blend (10 ethanol and 90
gasoline), but it can be used in higher
concentrations such as E85 or in its pure form.
All automobile manufacturers that do business in
the United States approve the use of certain
ethanol/gasoline blends.

Beginning in model year 2002, all Chevrolet
Suburbans and Tahoes and GMC Yukons and Yukon XLs
equipped with the Vortec 5.3 liter V8 engine will
be produced as Flexible Fuel Vehicles. The new
Chevrolet Avalanche with the standard 5.3 liter
V8 engine will also be capable of operating on
E85. Many other automobile makers also offer
flexible fuel vehicles.

Ethanol Production Process

• There are four basic steps in converting biomass
  to ethanol/bioethanol
• 1. Produce feedstock in the form of crops and/or
  crop residues
• Converting this biomass to a useable fermentation
  feedstock
• (typically some form of sugar) can be
  achieved using a variety
• of different process technologies. These
  processes for
• fermentation feedstock production constitute
  the critical
• differences among all of the bioethanol
  technology options.
• Fermenting the biomass intermediates using
  biocatalysts
• (microorganisms including yeast and
  bacteria) to produce
• ethanol in a relatively dilute aqueous
  solution is probably the
• oldest form of life science technology
  developed by humankind.
• Processing the fermentation product yields
  fuel-grade ethanol
• and byproducts that can be used to produce
  other fuels,
• chemicals, heat and/or electricity.

BioDiesel
What is Biodiesel? Biodiesel is manufactured from
most vegetable oils, animal fats, and recycled
greases. Composed of fatty acid alkyl
esters. Transesterification, organically derived
oils are combined with alcohol (ethanol or
methanol) and chemically altered to form fatty
esters such as ethyl or methyl ester.
13
BioDiesel
How can we use it?

• Blend with conventional diesel fuel or used as a
  neat fuel (100 biodiesel) to expand the
  petroleum diesel supply.
• Typically used as a fuel additive in 20 blends
  (B20) with petroleum diesel
• The United States produced about 5 million
  gallons of biodiesel in 2000, but U.S. capacity
  is nearly 50 million gallons per year and
  growing. U.S. producers use recycled cooking
  oils and soy oil.
• Biodiesel is used in some federal, state, and
  transit fleets and other equipment. (The Bi-State
  bus fleet and various Fire Stations use biodiesel
  in their fleets.)
• Feedstock costs represent approximately 75 to
  80 of the overall costs of biodiesel production.
  Therefore, capital expenditures do not have a
  significant impact on the overall cost of
  producing biodiesel. Biodiesel production
  facilities tend to be more scale neutral than
  other technologies. Economic studies suggest
  plants can be sized according to regional
  conditions.

BioFuel Benefits
Help boost the U.S. economy and strengthen rural
economy and strengthen U.S. energy
Security -value added to the feedstock (raise
value of crops and residues) -An increased
number of jobs -an increased tax base from plant
operations and income taxes and
investments in plant and equipment. Reduce
dependence on foreign oil -Currently, ethanol
reduces demand foreign oil by 100,000 barrels a
day Fewer emissions -Reduces greenhouse gas
emissions by 35 to 46 Use wastes that currently
have no use. Ethanol wood waste, agriculture
residues, fast-growing grasses and trees, and
the paper component of municipal solid
waste Biodiesel oilseeds, fats, vegetable oil
(soybean), frying oil, yellow grease Renewable
and inexhaustible source of fuel
