Two Israeli scientists have invented a new fuel system. If the system is adopted on a national scale it will not only guarantee cheaper prices but will also dramatically cut down the level of pollution. The scientists have developed a cleaner and cheaper petrol made of water and a secret ingredient. The fuel system burns pollution free and is way cheaper than fuel and oil.
It is no secret our fossil fuel is running out. What is going to happen if we use it all up? Are we going to stop using cars, planes, and trains? We have gotten so accustomed to the way we live our lives we can not change and probably no one wants to either. Something has to change. What do we do? Hydrogen Fuel Technology is the answer. When Hydrogen is powered by wind or water it is a clean, efficient, and renewable fuel.

AquaFuel Generators
AquaFuel is a reliable, inexpensive, non-polluting gas which is a viable, immediately available replacement for fossil-based fuels. AquaFuel is inherently safe to produce and store because all oxygen resulting from the separation of the water is combined with the carbon and it is then released only during combustion. It is easy to produce anywhere desired because of the simplicity of the equipment. And AquaFuel can be produced in a large column with consumer-oriented equipment, while unlimited volume can be produced on industrial plants. The AquaFuel process provides a new viable form of recycling sewage either by municipalities or by individual households.
AquaFuel has the best exhaust characteristics second to no other available fuel (including hydrogen), as well as the smallest oxygen consumption (for instance, natural gas uses 213 % more Oxygen than AquaFuel). As a result, AquaFuel is one of the most environmental friendly fuels in all respects, including pollutants, atmospheric oxygen depletion, health problems and other factors.

As if the list of positive points for people to convert to bio diesel can’t grow higher, A recent study at Purdue University has shown that burning bio diesel in home furnaces proved to be a huge success. The scientists clam that burning bio diesel rather than oil helped reduce the sulfur emissions of the home. Plus, the study also showed that the process was just as efficient as burning fossil fuels for heat.
Another great point is the ease of switching. The only real problem the study faced was that the gasket seals in the furnace kept leaking. While this seems like a big deal, it really isn’t. You see, the scientists say that this is an easily fixed problem by replacing the exiting seals with ones of a higher quality.
So with this news coming forward, and all the other reasons why bio diesel is so great. People could be pumping the stuff into their cars sooner then you think.
Los Alamos National Labs has created a fuel they called, “Green Freedom“. They have created a new process for extracting carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and making the building blocks of a liquid. Los Alamos National Laboratory developed the concept for large-scale production of carbon-neutral, sulfur-free fuels and organic chemicals from air and water.
The Lab uses non-hazardous materials for its feed and operation and has a small waste stream volume. In addition, unlike large-scale bio fuel concepts, the Green Freedom system does not add pressure to agricultural capacity or use large tracts of land or farming resources for production. Green Freedom system can use existing cooling towers, such as those of nuclear power plants, with carbon-capture equipment that eliminates the need for additional structures to process large volumes of air
The next phase will demonstrate the new electrochemical process to prove the ability of the system to both capture carbon dioxide and pull it back out of solution. An industrial partnership consortium will be formed to commercialize the Green Freedom concept. The principal market for the Green Freedom production concept is fuel for vehicles and aircraft.

Iraq, with the worlds riches oil fields has given the rights for an Arab company to turn the countries extra dates into a renewable fuel for all.
You see, Iraq produces over 100,000 tons of dates every year, but only a third of them are ever consumed. The rest are simply thrown out or given to livestock as feed.
Now however, that’s all changing. now Iraq’s extra dates will move to the united Arab Eremites where through a very complicated process, will be turned into bio-diesel. This is supposed to provide extra much needed money to the economy of war torn Iraq. Plus its renewable and doesn’t hurt the environment which is even better!

Folks who live near the Rockies might be sad that their trees have a habit of dying, but that doesn’t mean that they can turn them into something useful. That’s right, people in the Rockie mountain area have been turning the remains of dead trees into clean, environmentally friendly bio-diesel. Now this is sorta like an old dog new tricks kinda deal. You see bio-diesel has been around for over 20 years. But the people of Colorado have only been making their version of the product for only a year now.
In fact the product has even caught the eye of the Toledo energy company, who wants to turn all the dead trees in the area into bio diesel. Now there is a silver lining to this, it would be pretty cool getting rid of all those dead trees, plus they are being used wisely. But the only problem with this is the fact that it would take more energy to use this process then just pumping oil out of the ground. So until a more efficient way comes forth, we could be pumping oil for a long time.
Envion has found a way to cheaply, and safely, convert low grade plastic into something resembling oil. This compound can be mixed with other chemical components and sold as gasoline or diesel. Many companies have tried this approach before, but the process has always been so costly and made quite a mess inside the machine used to melt the plastic that would require major clean up. But Envion has perfected the science of converting plastic into fuel.
They utilize infra-red energy to heat the plastic to a very carefully controlled temperature range. The machine can convert everything from large plastic McDonald’s cups to the actual blue recycling bins themselves! The process is said to cost about $10 per barrel of the converted substance and many gasoline companies have already expressed interest in buying.
Envion recently set up their first conversion station at a waste transfer plant in Montgomery County, just north of Washington, D.C. They are set to unveil the station and more about how it works today with a speech by Gov. Martin O’Malley to follow.

Alright I’m not going to lie, The united states navy and algae really don’t go together, but after you realize that the Navy is researching alternative fuels it all comes together. You see the Navy is trying to develop a new type of oil to help power their cars and ships, They call this algae oil.
Now this research is really about the Us putting alternative fuel mandates on the navy, but they are sure that this is about creating better cleaner fuels for the military use. Plus who doesn’t want the government working to help create new fuels. I mean something like this can only help the situation that the world is in.
But what exactly is this algae oil? well, the navy hopes that it will be a substitute for regular oil, They also believe that it will behave just like regular oil. So in reality, its just regular oil that isn’t from the ground. But who knows, maybe the navy could be onto something and we could be on step away from filling our cars with oil from a plant.
