The agenda includes discussions on biodiesel basics, federal and state policies supporting biodiesel, infrastructure, blending economics, and an overview of Renewable Energy Group. The presentation aims to educate attendees on biodiesel production from multiple feedstocks, federal drivers like the Renewable Fuel Standard and blenders tax credit, state-level incentives and mandates, and how renewable identification numbers work to help obligated parties meet requirements.
This document summarizes a presentation given at the Tennessee Alternative Fuels and Bioenergy Conference that aimed to debunk common myths about biofuels. It discusses 7 of the most common myths, including that using food crops for fuel takes away from food production, that the US can achieve energy independence through increased drilling, and that biofuel subsidies are unreasonable. For each myth, it provides facts and data to rebut the claims, such as that US agriculture can meet food, feed, and fuel demand, reliance on petroleum imports leaves the country vulnerable, and fossil fuel subsidies greatly outweigh those for biofuels.
The document discusses the certification of fuel dispensing equipment for E85 fuel. It outlines how Underwriters Laboratory developed testing protocol Subject 87A to certify equipment for ethanol blends up to E85. As of June 2010, several dispensers, hoses, nozzles, swivels, and submersible turbine pumps received UL certification for dispensing E85. E85 equipment requires more expensive premium materials that are compatible with high ethanol fuels and costs $20,000-$25,000 compared to $10,000-$18,000 for gasoline dispensers.
This document is an activity book from the East Tennessee Clean Fuels Coalition that discusses air pollution and ways to improve air quality. It explains that air is made up of nitrogen, oxygen, and other gases and contains water droplets, pollen, and pollution. It notes that many areas in East Tennessee do not meet air quality standards due to particulate matter from diesel fuel. The document discusses alternative fuels like biodiesel and ethanol that can reduce emissions. It encourages actions like biking, walking, and driving less to help clean the air and provides information about where oil comes from and how gasoline is made from oil at refineries.
In February 2010, EPA finally nailed down it's analysis and implementation plan for the Renewable Fuels Standard, version 2.0. This presentation covers the main issues and highlights, and delves into some of the minutia before providing key resources for anyone wanting to learn more.
Oh yeah... and images of East Tennessee biofuel pumps (E85, B20, B6) are scattered throughout the presentation just to provide some ET flavor!

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
