American ship with a hybrid fuel engine went on a long trip

The US Navy forms a group of ships capable of walking on a mixture of conventional fuel and biofuels. Now this ratio is 9: 1, in the future it is planned to reach the ratio 50 on 50, reports TASS with reference to the Associated Press.

“The first such ship was the Stockdale missile destroyer, which, together with the Stennis nuclear-powered ship, set off on Wednesday for a seven-month voyage from the naval base in San Diego, California. Their crews saw off US Navy Minister Ray Mabus and Agriculture Minister Tom Vilsack, ”the agency reports.

Mabus recalled that before fleet “By 2020, the task has been set to switch to alternative energy sources by half.”

“This will give us a strategic advantage,” Vilsak said in turn.

According to the Associated Press, "The federal government has invested more than $ 500 million in the development of biofuels that do not require modernization of propulsion systems."

"Only this year, 77 million gallons (291,5 thousand cubic meters) of the fuel mixture (with a biofuel share of 10%) at the price of $ 2,05 per gallon was purchased for the needs of the Navy on the West Coast of the USA," the newspaper notes.

AP recalls that "as part of the national security strategy, the US military is obliged to systematically reduce its dependence on foreign energy sources." According to the agency, "from 2008, the Navy of the country reduced consumption of petroleum products by 15%, and the Marine Corps - by 60%."

Most likely, ethanol is actually used in brake fluids, but it is called for conspiracy ethylene glycol, because everyone knows that our aviators have repeatedly tried to extract alcohol from this liquid, and, of course, they were poisoned.
I worked in the production (radio-electronic), that in the process uses tens of liters of alcohol per day. And naturally, not technical, methanol or glycol is used, but wine alcohol used to produce vodka and wines. No one needs the increased mortality of our stupid population.

Not new at all. Alcohol dissolved in brake fluid does not allow it to freeze. Aircraft then fly at altitude with large temperature minuses. Only it is not ethyl alcohol, but ethylene glycol, a toxic alcohol. Yes, and boil this mixture in the brake system from nothing. Through this fluid pressure is transmitted through the piston (plunger) to the brake pad system, the fluid itself does not slow down anything.

Bioethanol, if we are talking about it, is, unfortunately, according to our "Retified alcohol" GOST, and it is usually obtained from rapeseed or corn ... This is not working off at all.

[KVIRTU]

Not certainly in that way. It's about biodiesel. They don’t use ethanol there. It’s impossible to get it.

"The raw materials for the production of diesel biofuels can be animal and vegetable oils (rapeseed, sunflower, palm, soy, coconut, castor, algal)."

A short shelf life (about 3 months, and they "went on a seven-month hike," braggart) is the main drawback, and even less when sailing in southern latitudes (unless containers with fuel will be cooled, or take oil with them on board recycle, which is more likely).

291,5 thousand cubic meters were bought by more than one delivery, of course. They will be transported as they are used, taking into account the shelf life (you can’t lay it on the storage).

Quote: engineer74

Bioethanol, if we are talking about it, is according to our "Retified alcohol" GOST, unfortunately, I do not remember and it is usually obtained from rapeseed or corn ...

Biodiesel is a biofuel based on vegetable or animal fats (oils), as well as products of their esterification. Vegetable oil is transesterified with methanol, less often ethanol or isopropyl alcohol (approximately in a proportion of 1 ton of oil, 200 kg of methanol + potassium or sodium hydroxide) at a temperature of 60 ° C and normal pressure. It is used in its pure form and in the form of various mixtures with diesel fuel. In the USA, a mixture of diesel fuel with biodiesel is indicated by the letter B; the number after the letter indicates the percentage of biodiesel. B2 - 2% of biodiesel, 98% of diesel fuel. B100 - 100% biodiesel. The use of mixtures does not require changes to the engine. The raw materials for the production of biodiesel are fatty, less often - essential oils of various plants or algae.
Europe - rapeseed;
USA - soybeans;
Canada - canola (a type of rapeseed);
Indonesia, Philippines - palm oil;
Philippines - Coconut Oil
India - Jatropha, (Jatropha);
Africa - soybean, jatropha;
Brazil is castor oil.
Used vegetable oil, animal fats, fish oil, etc. are also used.
Biodiesel, as experiments have shown, does not harm plants and animals when it enters water. In addition, it undergoes almost complete biological decay: in the soil or in water, microorganisms process 28% of biodiesel in 99 days, which allows us to talk about minimizing pollution of rivers and lakes.
CO2 reduction. During the combustion of biodiesel, exactly the same amount of carbon dioxide is released that was consumed from the atmosphere by the plant, which is the initial raw material for the production of oil, for the entire period of its life. Biodiesel in comparison with conventional diesel fuel contains almost no sulfur. This is good from an environmental point of view.

Alternative Energy Systems experts evaluate the overall technical potential of biomass in Russia 15-000 MW (for comparison: the capacity of all nuclear power plants in Russia is about 20 MW).
-----------------
According to scientists, the share of renewable energy sources will reach 2040% by 47,7, and the contribution of biomass to 23,8%. Plans to start the production of biofuels at the state level have been adopted in more than 38 countries. The world centers for biofuel production in 2012 are the USA, Brazil and the European Union. Ethen the three largest markets in the world, in 2010 concentrated 85% of the global biofuel production.

The largest share is in the United States - 48% of the world's biofuels. The most common type of biofuel is bioethanol; its share is 82% of the total fuel produced in the world from biological raw materials. Its leading manufacturers are the United States and Brazil. In 2nd place is biodiesel. In the European Union, 49% of biodiesel production is concentrated. Since 2000, the volume of world biofuel production has increased seven-fold - from 16 billion liters in 2000 to 110 billion liters in 2012. At the same time, biofuel makes up only 2,3% of the total volume of liquid (motor) fuel used. This figure is higher in Brazil (20,1%), the United States (4,4%) and the European Union (4,2%).

--------------------

Russia can more effectively realize its land potential (approximately 9% of the world arable land) - about 40 million hectares of unclaimed arable land under the creation of energy plantations, as well as more fully use about 1 billion tons of biomass annually.

But, as calculations show, when cultivating, for example, Jerusalem artichoke for the production of biogas and bioethanol for motor fuel for the entire Russian agricultural sector, it is necessary only about 3 million hectares, for the fleet of the whole of Russia - 15 million hectares. When cultivating sweet sorghum for the agricultural fleet, up to 1 million hectares for the Russian Federation - 15 million hectares, that is much less empty land.

By 2010, the production potential is expected to increase to 4 million barrels per day. (or 200 million tons per year). Interest in Nigerian oil is also fueled by the fact that 65% of it is oil with a low sulfur content (Bonny Light and Forcados varieties).

In pursuit of this policy, the United States has mothballed huge oil fields. In particular, there are explored and developed oil fields, mothballed for the future needs of the Navy specifically since the 60s. And so still not mothballed. And besides, in the USA and Canada there are a huge number of low-profit sources of oil and gas in the form of oil sands, bitumen deposits, low-calorie shale gas and shale oil. Extraction of these minerals in the presence of traditional sources of hydrocarbons is not cost-effective, but you can use them if necessary.

I'm fucked up. Poor unfortunate Ukraine. Default The economy in railroad, everyone stole it. Ahhhh, chief, everything's gone, the plaster is removed, the client is leaving. There is no oil in it, no industry, etc.

And we. We are launching new plants, building something there, gold and foreign exchange reserves in heaps. We produce oil, increase its production. In space, bl, fly.

So what the hell are we in this ass. Nabiulina broadcasts that the ruble corresponds to the price that is given for it.

According to the head of the Russian Federation, the leader’s activities and ideas “led to the collapse of the Soviet Union”
Russian leader Vladimir Putin, during a meeting of the Presidential Council on Science and Education on Thursday, January 21, shared his opinion on the results and ideas of Vladimir Lenin.
Thus, in response to a question from Mikhail Kovalchuk, head of the Kurchatov Institute, Vladimir Vladimirovich described the subversive role of the leader of the world proletariat in Russian history. According to our president, the ideas of Ilyich ultimately "led to the collapse of the Soviet Union."

1) is released into the atmosphere when burning biodiesel almost as much carbon dioxide as the plant consumed, served as raw materials; i.e. biodiesel does not worsen the state of the atmosphere and does not exacerbate the greenhouse effect.
2) biodiesel is fast (99% per month) and easy, using common bacteria, decomposes in nature, almost without harming it; even more than that: keep it longer than tmonths can not be - decomposes.
Even an accident - the damage is minimal
3) non-environmental advantage, absent from mineral fuel: it serves as a good lubricant for the engine. There is even a record in the Guinness Book: truck from Germany, drove in biodiesel without any interference with the engine, 1250 thousand kilometers.
4) The annual total amount of agricultural organic waste in Russia is approximately 593 million tons, of which 350 million livestock, 23 million poultry, plant growing - 220 million tons. Based on cellulose, as a result of enzymatic processes, it is possible to obtain up to 117 million tons of bioethanol, with acetone-butyl fermentation - 64,2 million cubic meters. m of biohydrogen and 95 million tons of biobutanol, with peat extraction in the amount of 300 million tons - up to 90 million tons of bioethanol annually. A significant part of this waste could be used for biofuel production, especially considering that in Russian reality these products do not find other uses for themselves.

This does not threaten us very much, but Sweden is. Southern Sweden (granary) is almost all seeded with rapeseed.

ethanol:

When using ethanol (rather than methanol), problems arise when washing biodiesel to remove excess alcohol, ethanol forms a stable aqueous emulsion. Methyl esters also performed much better during long-term storage, compared to ethyl.

After long experiments, the US military decided to stop on beef fatOne to 10 is mixed with diesel fuel. The US Navy received $ 150 million for the construction of three plants for the production of biofuels from food waste, wood pulp, fats and oils.

For testing a new type of fuel, the Navy was chosen, or rather one of the destroyers. On the eve of the naval base of San Diego in California went on a seven-month hike missile destroyer "Stockdale", the first American ship loaded with an explosive mixture of fat and diesel fuel. How this will affect the combat efficiency of the ship is not yet clear, however, experience has shown that it can move, which has already inspired optimism among Pentagon officials.

Well, think at least a little head.
1. Modern biodiesel surpasses high-quality diesel fuel in all respects. And lubricating properties, increased cetane number, 100% environmental friendliness during storage and transportation, much better fire safety. And yet it will soon be cheaper than oil refining. What is extremely important for a warship.
there is no electricity in ethanol biodiesel.

2. Employment of the population in the USA. Instead of giving subsidies to the farming population, keeping it at the level of "slightly higher than the first half of the year," the state encourages the employment of this very population in the cultivation of oilseeds. There are 3 dozen of these crops. With the output of finished oil in 6000 liters per hectare. Taking into account millions of hectares of relatively free land, the exhaust is not weak. And yes. Sunflower is not grown for oil in the United States. It is not, to put it mildly, the most oil-bearing. at the rice level. those. 6 times worse than the same oil palms. And sunflower is sown only in rotation in one state in total. The cost of a centner of the same sunflower for oil for biofuel is 400 dollars per ton. And when they learn to express the water content on an industrial scale, then in general. 700 times more than from rapeseed from one area.
They will make vats in deserts and nafig it will not be necessary to hole the earth.
Those. employment is growing. Money among the rural population is growing.

3. A huge amount of "almost free" cake appears, which can be put into feed for animal husbandry. Reducing costs accordingly for the entire industry. That will give either additional money to the manufacturer. Or lower prices for the consumer.

4. Increase in citizens' income - increase in the tax base of the state. Yes, plus the cessation of subsidies - a double benefit! You can spend extra money on social programs or science and take another step in development!
All is well!

What? is it really not visible?

Is it really okay to write nonsense about "an American sailor to settle down in battle ... is not a shame, but an opportunity to provide even better combat qualities of his ship ..." is this normal, but thinking with your head is ... nothing?

What's the problem?
If 40 years ago and now in 2016, about the same area of ​​arable land.
But. The world average yield of the same wheat increased 3 times. from 10 to 30 centners per hectare.
In America, this figure is the average 60 centners. Not bad?
And the lands that were given over to grain were freed. Almost by 50%. And before they stood idle.
Demand is stable. and easily predictable for years to come. It makes no sense to increase the grinding of grain.
Who needs an excess of grain? To nobody. Because. that prices will immediately collapse.
And your 100 tons of 100 bucks will be much better than 200 tons of 40 bucks.

And now there is a benefit to use this land. For oilseeds are not bought for the bucket, but for fuel.

I remember them well. Near my house there were TsRMM for the repair of forestry equipment. From all over the Amur Region, the equipment was brought for repair. Not only the trucks, the tractors were gas-generating. In 1971, when doing the audit of the state reserve, there were more than 100 sets of gas generators in the warehouse .And from the distant forest sites, the peasants would like to supply them, because it was possible to start fuel only on ice roads.
I wanted to reset the link, but those who want to find data on biofuel can google the E-20 mixture from the link. This mixture of gasoline and alcohol has been used since 1910 as fuel and there is nothing to drink it. Fuel in vegetable oil and dimethyl ether is biodiesel and it gives the smell of fried pies on the exhaust. These fuels are not so harmless, but these problems can be solved. The point is that these types of fuels require special materials for the fuel system. Those materials that are used today cannot be used for these fuels. Do you need metal or special materials. By the way! During the Civil War, alcohol fuel mixtures and benzene-toluene mixtures were widely used for aircraft engines, since the Baku oil fields were located near the Belys and the interventionists in the North Caucasus.

[Mustached Kok]

There are jokers in the comments. And by the way, I note that the purpose of these studies is to work out the technology for reducing the consumption of oil products by the army. After all, various types of biofuels (biomethane and biodiesel) are grown on the territory of the country itself, simply PARALLELLY with the country's agriculture itself. And the US (and neighboring Canada and Mexico) is one of the largest agricultural countries. Many biofuels do NOT require engine reprocessing. And due to the low sulfur content (unlike oil diesel) as well as the production of lubricant in the PROCESS of biodiesel operation, the engine resource consumption is reduced by almost 60%!!! Also, do not forget that due to the production of biofuels directly in the country (I remind you that this production is parallel to agriculture and animal husbandry), the prices for this fuel within the country are more stable than oil prices, which are constantly jumping in the world due to various conflicts or crises.
And now let's summarize what all this will lead to if this technology is successfully applied in the US Navy (for now, only in the Navy, if you bring in the SV, the situation will become even worse).

1. Due to the fact that 50% of the fuel will be produced year-round in the country at stable prices (I remind you, unlike petroleum diesel, biodiesel prices cannot jump sharply several times), the total cost of purchasing fuel will decrease. And this will free up part of the budget money for what would now be directed to armament / repair / modernization. And this is not very good for us, because they are potential opponents.
2. Due to the fact that biofuel consumes less engine life - in the fleet as a whole, the cost of servicing all non-nuclear power plants is reduced. And this also frees up part of the budget allocated for fuel, which can now be spent on modernization / repair / re-equipment of the fleet
3. Less consumption of the strategic "oil" diesel stock. Which means that in the event of a potential oil blockade, the Americans will have enough of their oil from their sources and reserves for a longer period.

As you can see on the scale of a single ship, the advantages are not visible, but only causes laughter. But on the scale of the ENTIRE fleet. This provides enormous ECONOMIC and RESOURCE benefits at the STRATEGIC and GLOBAL level. And as soon as the first numerical research data appears on how much the transition to diesel allows you to save (although it is possible that such data will be immediately classified and will be used only for themselves, maybe they will be shared with the Europeans), then it will be possible to estimate exactly how much money is released from fleet when switching to biodiesel. And perhaps this money will even be enough to build new ships.
