“Bell said the original idea came from observing cows expel gas.”

Not quite as romantic as Newton watching an apple fall. Unfortunately, I predict that this won’t be as far-reaching either. I’m sure Bell is not the only one who’s thought of modifying bacteria so that they can produce a fuel. Whether it works is the key. I’ll reserve my judgment until I see the product.

Dang is Tifton great or what? First, heat resistant bentgrass greens and now this!

Certainly would be nice to get oil self dependent, and out of the Mid-East Hell hole.

Not this BS again. There was a thread on this topic yesterday that was joined by JC Bell (mentioned in the article). After a few technical questions Mr Bell fled the field.

... can convert bio-mass into hydrocarbons on a grand scale. The local researcher believes his groundbreaking discovery could result in the production of 500 to 1,000 barrels of hydrocarbon fuel per day from the initial production facility.

If that,s real, big oil will make shure this thing will never see light of the day, you can bet your house on it.

Look at the hybrid cars scam, it takes very little to upgrade a hybrid car to a PHEV (plug in hybrid) which is basically an electric car with combustion engine back-up, yet no car manufacturer dares to produce one (you can buy a conversion kit though making your hybrid into a PHEV).

No car manufacturer dares to produce a PHEV cause they all are all in bed with oil companies.

After being patriotic (and stupid) for 30 years driving American cars I finally woke up like millions of Americans and now I am driving a Toyota.

GM, Ford and Chrysler will go bankrupt soon anyway.

Seems to me that what is described here is theoretically possible. What remains to be seen of course is if this is the real thing.

As someone else pointed out, were it to be accurate, the enviro-tards will most surely attempt to derail it.

...bacterial organisms that can convert bio-mass into hydrocarbons...

One downside is that they eat you too.

I believe there is already a similar plant in operation. I saw a TV show about it. It converts primarily turkey waste. The article didn’t discuss the economics of this plant so it’s hard to say whether or not it’s cost effective. The fact that he sites nothing but govt officials and agencies raises the BS flag for me.

Sounds good, but won’t the hateful politicians block any idea that would lessen their power and monies grab? And since the majority of Americans believe the lying politicians and continue to elect liars and thieves, why would they do the right thing if they can get away with doing the wrong things all the time.

I wish well this invention if only to reduce landfill waste. However, this is still hydrocarbon fuel. Our energy issue in not lack of resources, it is lack of production. Environmental wackos will fight this because it still burns carbon.
