	Units: L
		The liter was originally defined to be the volume occupied by a kilogram of water, and the gram as the mass of a cubic centimeter of water.
		However, the SI states that the liter "may be employed as a special name for the cubic decimeter." Throughout this dictionary, the liter is used as a name for exactly 1 cubic decimeter, 1000 cubic centimeters, or 0.001 cubic meter.
		Compared to the customary volume units, the liter is a little more than a U. liquid quart (1.056 688 qt or 33.814 fluid ounces) but a little less than a U. dry quart (0.908 08 qt) or a British imperial quart (0.879 89 qt or 35.195 fluid ounces).

		During Jan-Oct 2002, ethanol production was 11.3 billion liters in comparison to 9.8 billion liters for the same period in 2001.
		Canada set a new target of achieving 1.3 billion liters of ethanol per year by the year 2010.
		The Petroleum Ministry has sought restoration of 75 paise per liter excise duty concession on ethanol- blended gasoline to encourage this green fuel, as is being practised globally.

		Brazil's oil reserves, estimated at 8.4 billion barrels as of 2002, are the second-largest in South America, surpassed only by those of Venezuela.
		It was followed by Agra 2, which took 23 years and $10 billion to complete and became operational in 2000.
		In the 1980s, 80% of the country's cars and light vehicles were powered by alcohol, although slumping oil prices and persistent financial problems within the alcohol industry prompted the government to freeze production at the 1985 level of 11.1 billion liters (2.9 billion gallons).

		And because there are 3.78 liters in a gallon, one part per million is also the same as one drop of a substance in about 13.2 gallons of water.
		If one drop of food coloring in 50 liters of water is a part per million, one drop of food coloring in 50,000 liters of water is a part per billion.
		So for every billion liters of water (each liter of water weighs about 1 kg), one kilogram of arsenic is one part per billion.

	Vegetable oil used as fuel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		WVO can be a very economical heating option for those with a mechanical inclination and the drive to put a little work into it.
		As of 2000, the United States were producing in excess of 11 billion liters of waste vegetable oil annually, mainly from industrial deep fryers in potato processing plants, snack food factories and fast food restaurants.
		If all those 11 billion liters could be collected and used to replace the energetically equivalent amount of petroleum (a rather utopical case), almost 1% of US oil consumption could be offset.

		Eisenbeiss believes a modern brewer needs to be big — Holsten already serves up 1 billion liters a year — and international.
		Yet even a German giant like Holsten is dwarfed by Heineken — which produced 11 billion liters in 2002 and is awaiting regulatory approval for its purchase of Austria's 2.6 billion-liter-per-year BBAG brewery for €1.9 billion.
		Last year, brands like Warsteiner (570 million liters) and Radeberger (880 million liters) did manage to lead prices in the premium segment higher by advertising their quality, but beer inflation still trails other products.

		Two factors that drive this phenomenon are the Kyoto Protocol, which has become effective and foresees the reduction in the emission of polluting gases in a world level, and the sharp rise in oil prices.
		Just to have an idea, Brazil, which already is the greatest producer and exporter in the world of fuel alcohol, exported last year 2.4 billion liters of the product, against 1.1 billion in 2003.
		This will generate, according to the minister, a demand for 11 billion liters per year more than the 14 billion liters Brazil currently produces.

		A Canadian biotech company, however, says that next year it will begin building the world's first facility to mass-produce ethanol, not just from grain, but from a far more abundant source: agricultural waste, such as cornstalks, cobs, and leaves.
		Iogen of Ottawa, Ontario, uses enzymes made by a genetically engineered fungus to convert cellulose in the corn waste to sugars, which are then fermented to make ethanol.
		Three sites in the United States, Canada, and Germany have been proposed for the new plant, which will produce about 200 million liters a year -- a capacity similar to that of the largest existing ethanol plants -- and should be operational by 2007, says Jeff Passmore, executive vice president of Iogen.

		This target is to have 35 percent of all gasoline in Canada contain a blend of 10-percent ethanol by 2010.
