alternative fuels

Fuels that replace traditional liquid, oil-derived motor vehicle fuels like gasoline and diesel; they generally produce fewer emissions than traditional fossil fuels. Alternative fuels include methanol, ethanol, biodiesel, compressed natural gas, and others. The alternatives are promoted for pollution reduction properties and/or to reduce U.S. dependence on imported oil. Ethanol can be produced from grain, agricultural wastes, and excess crops.
