      <title>Energy initiatives and options</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1206740</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This paper outlines the work carried out by the national energy advisory committee which was formed in March 1977.  The committee consists of twenty two members drawn from all areas of the energy scene.  The terms of reference of the committee are to advise the minister and therefore, the government on matters related to all forms of energy policy, particularly in conservation of resource and research and development (a).]]></description>

      <title>Production of fuel ethanol - the canegrower's view</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1189226</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Australian canegrowers are enthusiastic about the prospect of production of ethanol from cane.  Their view is that sugar cane has advantages over other crops as an ethanol feedstock and that ethanol production would provide complementary benefits to sugar production.  Cane farms producing ethanol feedstocks should be family farms rather than plantations and the forward integration of farmers into both large and small scale distillation is a real possibility.  The possible structure of sugar and ethanol industries is discussed in the paper and is shown to have an impact on the maximum level of potential production of ethanol.  Material supplied for ethanol production from cane farms is likely to be of similar composition to that supplied for sugar manufacture although fermentable yields of especially bred or managed canes could be higher.  The price of cane for ethanol will have important implications for the distillation industry's structure and scale.  Cane prices for ethanol are unlikely to be below the recent prices for sugar cane (a).]]></description>

      <title>ASA Fuel Services: Focusing on the Client</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/878073</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (ASA) and its fuel management system is the focus of this article. As a Mexican government agency, ASA has a 40-year track record in working with airport planning, design, construction, operation, and administration. ASA is currently comprised of three main areas. These include Business Units Coordination, Institutional Coordination, and Corporate Services Coordination. Within ASA's Business Units Coordination, the fuel services unit is responsible for all aspects of aviation fuel (i.e., reception, storage, quality control, refueling) for the 63 stations that comprise the Mexican Airport Network. In 2001, ASA instituted its Fuel Management System (FMS) in order to better meet client needs. The main objectives of FMS are to standardize processes, optimize resources, develop technological innovations, and to maintain a motivated, professional workforce (now numbering 1,350). From a strategic planning standpoint, FMS is seen as key to ASA’s expansion into new markets, taking advantage of industry consolidation and cost savings opportunities. The article discusses FMS operations in detail and provides a brief history of ASA.]]></description>

      <title>AUTOMATED FUEL OPERATIONS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/720665</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Airport fuel service companies are recognizing the need to implement computerized data capture to compensate for continuing rapid growth in air travel. The development of automated fuel operations to replace manual systems may provide refuellers with hand-held PCs capturing all fuel details and printing tickets without manual intervention. As a result, automated systems will dramatically reduce time involved in fuel operations with few errors.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Problems of fuel quality are now causing so much concern that shipowners and operators are increasingly looking for independent verification by means of onboard testing.  This article reports on fuel oil analysis services offered by organisations associated with the leading classification societies, onboard testing equipment, fuel filters and fuel management systems.]]></description>

      <title>FUEL TREATMENT - AN INTRICATE PART OF YOUR FUEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/442893</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This paper will address basic technical and practical variables including the limitations of effective fuel treatment as an integral part of fuel management systems.  Treatment methods and products can cover a range of alternatives from complex, single-purpose products to simple but unique multiple-purpose, problem-solving products which offer and/or provide significant performance benefits.  Emphasis will be placed on fuel efficiency, emission reduction, water content impact and control, lubricity considerations and long-term engine performance.  Despite the preponderance of laboratory data and simulators, sophisticated instrumentation, computerised operations, etc., fuel treatment requires verification in actual, field-performance operating conditions.  This requires the application of technical and management skills, and commitment, in conjunction with the fuel management systems.]]></description>

      <title>DATA-BASED FUEL COST MANAGEMENT</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/424827</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Commercial carriers are maximizing fuel cost savings by using data generated by their business information systems.  Useful data can be obtained from fuel island management, routing/dispatch, on-board computer systems, and communication and maintenance programs--all of which fleets have been using for years.  This article describes the cost-cutting fuel management strategies of six commercial carriers--Burlington Motor Carriers, Dot Transportation, U.S. Xpress/Southwest Motor Freight, Swift Transportation, Steel Warehouse and Supply, Umthun Trucking Company, and Sysco Food Services.  New fuel purchase trends are discussed also.]]></description>
