feedstock

The water used is largely due to the amount of water used to grow the feedstock of the cattle.

Vast numbers of cattle are raised in semi-desert conditions in Texas and Montana without the use of irrigated feedstock.

Also, the LEDs have to be specifically fabricated for their technique; they cannot use feedstock from the existing industry.

And of course corn is the primary feedstock for milk cows, leading to artificially cheap milk.

Actually most of the ones in a factory take the raw feedstock in and spit out finished parts, no human intervention required.

Sabatier process and Fischer-Tropsch process will both create fuels (gas and liquid, respectively), given a hydrogen and carbon feedstock, and input energy.

I see seawater rather than air as a CO2 + H2 feedstock as being much more viable.

Sure, but existing chemical companies already use methane as a feedstock.

Cotton, Antebellum cotton, was the - the feedstock for the British textile portion of the Industrial Revolution - which was in Britain, the main event.

The Design Reference Mission calls for generating the fuel on the Martian surface, so you only need to drop a small amount of hydrogen feedstock to make the rest.

The author is talking like a chemist or a chemical engineer WRT "low quality feedstock" "low quality source" and language like that.

The fraction called "naptha" which is between ethane and gasoline in refining tends to be used as chemical feedstock.

Where you'd get your feedstock from is a complete mystery as the scam of "recycling" by shipping used electronic to the 3rd world is pretty modern.
