The speed record for fuel from cheese
The monopoly of gasoline and diesel fuel, apparently, will soon be over. And this will happen not only thanks to the electric motors, but motors that run on biofuel. Here's the fuel created on the basis of cheese, and used car makers Aggie A-Salt Streamliner, which recently broke the speed record for cars in its class.
Every day there is information about the next record, put to any vehicle with the original principle of movement. We have already read about the world's fastest electric car, solar vehicle, compressed air, and a car with a steam engine. And today, from the United States came the news about the speed record set by a car that runs on cheese fuel.
Of course, the car Aggie A-Salt Streamliner impossible to fill directly with wheels of cheese. But he can move thanks to biofuels created on the basis of cheese. Recently in one of the deserts of Utah car Aggie A-Salt Streamliner was able to accelerate to 105 kilometers per hour. This is a very modest figure as for conventional cars. However, this and the new speed record for cars with two-cylinder engine volume of 1 liter.
At the same time for car makers Aggie A-Salt Streamliner was important, not the fact of setting the record (this is just a way to attract attention to their developments), and the ability of vehicles to drive on biofuel, the production of which used the waste products of microorganisms.
It means that in the future no longer need to sow the fields with canola and collect used oil for McDonald's restaurants, for producing biofuels will be possible thanks to the useful bacteria. Moreover, chemists and biologists, through which came the cheese is fuel, also explore the possibility of developing biofuel based on yeast and microalgae. Good, and they can multiply very quickly and without any stimulus from the outside.
