Biodiesel Boat Races

The biodiesel boat races were a very fun project. Using the biodiesel that was made in class, we constructed putt putt boats to race down a track. The lightest, best boat would go the fastest, and the group that won got 15 extra credit points in class. My boat was made out of a milk carton, which was not very balanced, so my boat was not very fast. Oh well, I still had a good time making my boat.

Biodiesel Video

The Biodiesel Video project was very fun! My partner and I created a one minute video that was entered into a contest to win $1,000! Although I don't think that our video will win, it was very interesting to learn about the different aspects of Biodiesel and how it is an alternative fuel to petroleum products.
