Really? I thought biodiesel was cheaper grow and refine than making
oil by mining coal and making oil from it. But in any case the
relevant question is not whether coal/oil is cheaper than bio/oil.
The question is: is there more profit to be made from growing
biodiesel than growing food.


A LIVERPOOL professor is sending a buzz around the world after he turned
chip fat oil into biofuel - using a microwave.

John Moores University professor Ahmed Al-Shamma is leading the world in
pioneering new microwave technology which could help cut the world's CO²
emissions.

Now I know its going to be accurate and scientific ...

Maxie, how do you know?

And Prof Al-Shamma's microwave technology doesn't only stop at vegetable
oil. The university has been given £580,000 to turn grass into LPG (Liquid
Petroleum Gas).
The university is hoping to take polluted, infertile grass and weeds from
brownfield sites and break down the sugar to create bio-ethanol.

Stick it in a cow and collect the fart gas ...

Maxie, how do you do that?
