Biofuels

June 14-17

Madison Area Technical College—Madison, Wisconsin

This academy will cover the fundamentals of biofuels with an emphasis on fuel production, quality control, engine performance, and vehicle emissions. Participating teachers will produce biodiesel by the transesterfication process and perform ASTM measurements to determine chemical and physical properties of fuel. They will also perform a distillation to process ethanol fuel from a fermented feedstock. Test engines will be operated on biofuels to evaluate both performance and emission properties.
