World chemical outlook
C&EN's 2009 forecasts for the U.S., Canada, Latin America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific tell a common story of how economic woes are affecting the chemical industry. Customers, worried about future demand, are delaying purchases and drawing down their inventories. In response, chemical manufacturers are cutting back production, shutting or idling plants, and in many cases, laying off workers.

More about Chempedia
Antony Williams of ChemSpider (www.chemspider.com), who’s also an active participant on Wikipedia Chemistry, has commented about our coverage of Chempedia on Issue #101 of the ChemIndustry.com newsletter:
"Chempedia is using Wikipedia text for all articles. If a compound monograph is missing from Chempedia then it has either not been extracted from Wikipedia (and there are examples of this…there are chemistry articles on Wikipedia that are NOT on ChemPedia) or it does not exist on ChemPedia. The compound monographs are not created on ChemPedia…they are created on Wikipedia. The “More then 3200 have contributed to this Wiki site as of Nov. 2008.” Actually are 3200 people contributing to Wikipedia that are then shown on Chempedia."
For more information about this topic, see Antony Williams' blog .
Thanks Tony.

Joe diesel
Mano Misra, Susanta Mohapatra, and Narasimharao Kondamudi of the University of Nevada-Reno are hoping that waste coffee grounds could be used to make an environment-friendly vehicle fuel of the future. Every time you have a cup of Joe, those filter dregs are wasted. The Nevada team, however, explain that spent coffee grounds contain between 11 and 20 percent vegetable oil by weight, which is about the same as traditional feedstocks for biofuels including rapeseed, palm, and soybean oil. The researchers are planning to develop a pilot plant to produce and test the experimental fuel in 2009.
Waste coffee grounds offer new source of biodiesel fuel
