A zinc electrode that lasts about five months would cost about the same as a litre of kerosene,
Unlike conventional aircraft which burn kerosene oe a polluting fossil fuel-Leslie's plane was powered by fuel derived from rapeseed oil.
so in order to be preserved it must be placed in a mineral oil such as kerosene. See Periodic table of the Elements As with other metals of the alkali group potassium decomposes in water with the evolution of hydrogen.
The effort aims to use straw to create a biofuel that can be mixed with kerosene in a 50/50 blend.
When mixed with kerosene theses hydrocarbons can be burned in jet engines. The hard part will be finding the most suitable microorganisms
Andrew Nelson the chief operating officer of XCOR Aerospace which is currently selling $95000 tickets for suborbital flights says that the blend of kerosene
and liquid oxygen in his XR-5k18 rocket engine powering its Lynx suborbital spaceplane will emit much less in the way of aromatic hydrocarbons than traditional kerosene-based rocket fuel.
because they do not emit CO2 the way conventional hydrocarbon jet fuels ââ oetypically kerosene-do.
