    Problem 3: Land footprint of biofuels You are attempting to create transportation fuel in Tempe, AZ on one acre (4,047 m2) of land. You have the option to grow corn, safflower (an oil seed crop that can be dry farmed), or switchgrass. The corn can be used to produce ethanol, the safflower to produce biodiesel and the switchgrass could be used to produce ethanol, diesel or electricity. The yields for the crops and each conversion process is given in the...

    The corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standard for mileage is currently 26.5 miles per gallon of gasoline (the defender) for passenger cars. To conserve fuel and reduce air pollution, suppose the u.s Congress sets the CAFE standard at 35 miles per gallon(the challenger) in 2010. An auto will emit on average 0.8 pounds of carbon dioxide(c02) per mile driven at 26.5 miles per gallon, and will emit 0.65 pounds of CO2 per mile driven at 35 miles per gallon. A....
