Question

What is a good informative alternative fuel to do a 2 page paper on?

Answer 1

Propane is the answer. Nobody uses it. Why? The amount available, Cost comparison.

Answer 2

You could write it on hydrogen or specifically on fuel cells using hydrogen. Honda has a vehicle now that uses natural gas to generate the hydrogen which means their car doesn't really run on an alternative fuel. Others are working on ways to produce the hydrogen thru special membranes or thru electrolysis. If this is actually as good as the link below says it is then it would be revolutionary. Unfortunately, I've seen too many stories like this evaporate into thin air.

Hydrogen is quite a bit more volatile than gasoline so there would be some redesigning to do there but fuel cells deliver great performance and the only emission from the tailpipe is water vapor. The second link claims you could produce the hydrogen on-board as you drive, using a battery or generator presumably. If it's not a hoax then it's a quantum leap in turning water into fuel since normal electrolysis uses more energy to produce the hydrogen than you get from using it as a fuel or in a fuel cell.

Answer 3

DO IT ON E-85 ETHANOL- TALK ABOUT HOW OUR GOVERNMENT IS TRY TO PUSH THIS GARBAGE FUEL OFF ON US AND NOT ONLY AT A PRICE AS CLOSE TO GASOLINE -BUT THIS FUEL GIVE U LESS MILES PER GALLON - I KNOW I HAVE A SO CALLED FLEX FUEL VEHICLE.........YEAH ITS FLEX ALRIGHT .....WHEN U USE E-85 THE GAS HAND MOVES FASTER AND YOU GET LESS MILES TO THE GALLON..........Y DONT THEY ADVERTISE MILE PER GALLON WHEN THE SAY E-85 ???? CAUSE THERE ARE NONE

THERE ARE NOT THAT MANY GAS STATIONS THAT SELL E-85.....YOU HAVE 2 DO A INTERNET SEARCH TO FIND ON NEAR U........THAT MESSED UP

Answer 4

bio diesel the fuel that comes from recycled frying oil and grease from restaurants as this product would generally have been trashed now it can be made into fuel,some cities use it exclusively for there bus fleet

Answer 5

bio diesel the fuel that comes from recycled frying oil and grease from restaurants as this product would generally have been trashed now it can be made into fuel,some cities use it exclusively for there bus fleet and Natural Gas

Natural gas is a domestically produced alternative fuel and is readily available to end users through the utility infrastructure. It can produce significantly fewer harmful emissions than gasoline or diesel when used in natural gas vehicles.

Answer 6

Start with these and think about it a while.  It should not be a "pop science" subject.

Biomass can use to used to creat an alternate fuel .
