The total capacity toward benzol production possessed by the coal annually produced in the United States is upward of 1,000,000,000 gallons,1 which in terms of gasoline represents about one-half of our annual consumption of the latter. Compared with gasoline, benzol yields better efficiency in the internal combustion engine, but presents a slight disadvantage in respect to use in cold weather. It may be used successfully in the ordinary gasoline motor by admitting a little more air than is customary for gasoline, or by mixing with gasoline. Alcohol is familiar to everyone and as a fuel offers the advantage that it can be made from organic products which reproduce themselves from year to year and include vast quantities of materials that ordinarily go to waste.2 Unlike the mineral fuels, therefore, it does not constitute a drain upon a reserve fixed in quantity. The difference in effectiveness for motor use between alcohol and gasoline is slight; for whereas gasoline yields a trifle more power to the gallon and is easier "starting from the cold," alcohol is safer, cleaner, and more pleasant as to exhaust odors. The capacity of this country in respect to alcohol production can not be closely stated, but if the output of alcoholic beverages is any criterion,3 existing distilleries upon conversion could at once produce fuel alcohol to the extent of millions of gallons, whereas the substitution of waste products for grain would effect a great economy over the cost of denatured alcohol as made at present. If, in addition, the perplexing legal difficulties that now hedge in such a development could be circumvented, the use of individual manufactories on farms could readily furnish a perpetual supply of motor fuel...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineral Industries of the United States: The Energy Resources of the United States; A Field for Reconstruction Because it seems inevitable that sooner or later the energy re sources oi the United States must be employed more systematically and effectively than they have been in the past, this study has been made with a view toward setting forth a working plan for bettering the situation. This is done in the belief that the sustained conduct of the war and the future welfare of the country both demand con sideration and action in respect to this matter. While it is commonly known that our present utilization of fuel is wasteful, it is not gen erally appreciated how very serious and extensive this default has become, how many lines of progress the current practice in this field is blocking, and how distinctly and heavily the whole matter is contributing to the cost of living. While the color of sensational ism is to be deprecated, the assertion can not be avoided that this country has within its reach the means for effecting a saving in the matter of its energy supply of well over a billion dollars a year. This paper points out those means. In this one direction alone lies a gain sufficient to recoup much of the expense of the Great War.
