Re: What plants might be grown, just for bio-fuel?

Quote:
This week, scientists from the University of Massachusetts said they have, for the first time, used plant cellulose to create a liquid that contains some of the compounds found in gasoline. This is a big breakthrough for “green gasoline.” The liquid contains 1/4 of the compounds found in traditional gasoline; it could be used as-is for a high-octane fuel, or further treated to get it to match traditional, fossil-fuel gasoline.

The press release said it might be 5-10 years before we see “green gas” at the pump.
Big step forward for 'green gasoline' at Dan Kulpinski

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
