Petroleum from wood-chips and sunlight?

Hi,


Making petroleum from wood-chips and other plant wastes is feasible now.

Clink on this link to access Sundrop Fuels looks to combine sunlight + wood-chip to make gasoline

Not only is it carbon neutral to use this petroleum, it is very cheap too. It costs only US$2 per gallon compared to US$60 to $80 per gallon for the conventional fossil fuel petroleum.

Since wood-chip, corn, wheat and rice stalks and leaves are produced in large quantities in crop production, these wastes can be turned into cheap petroleum. The energy for the chemical conversion comes from the unlimited sunlight. Light energy is captured by a series of mirrors and directed onto the plant wastes. The high temperature of 1,200 1,300 degrees Celsius created would break the chemical bonds in the organic material and make new bonds to turn them into fuel.


Cheers
