This fuel could transport goods to markets, produce steam and electricity, heat homes, boil water and cook food, provide power for communication equipment and provide for better standards of education and health. With less reliance on dirtier fuels, there would be less air pollution indoors and out, less deforestation and erosion of soils.&nbsp; This report describes the simple engineering required to increase the efficiency of a solar still to produce low-cost, concentrated ethanol for fuel at the local, \"micro\" level, reliably and safely.","Page image":"File:Solarfuelalcoholdistillation HalfPVC.jpg","Page is part of":"MECH425 Engineering for Sustainable Development","Page keywords":"Engineering, Solar distillation, Alcohol fuels, solar energy","Page language":"en","Page license":"CC-BY-SA-3.0","Page title":"Solar fuel alcohol distillation","Page views":"2552","Page year":"Friday, 01-Jan-10 00:00:00 UTC","Project authors":"User:A.severs","Project coordinates":"44.305413888889, -76.428377777778","Project location":"Kingston, Canada","Project status":"Designed","Project thumb":"https://www.appropedia.org/w/images/thumb/2/21/Solarfuelalcoholdistillation_HalfPVC.jpg/330px-Solarfuelalcoholdistillation_HalfPVC.jpg","Project type":"Solar still","Project uses":"Distillation","Modification date":"Wednesday, 16-Sep-26 17:00:38 UTC"}
