Scientists from Edinburgh Napier University, Scotland, claimed to have succeeded in developing biofuels (biofuels) of whiskey. Biofuel has been successfully running the car.

Scientists use the pot ale, the liquid residue from the copper and the rest of the wheat from the distillation of whiskey. From this residual material they can make butanol fuel.

"We are committed to finding innovative sources of renewable energy," said Professor Martin Tangney, Director of the Biofuel Research Centre at Napier University, 19 August 2010.

Martin said, this fuel can be used for an ordinary car without adjusting the machine. And unlike other biofuels, fuels made ​​from waste products and no need special plant ingredients, such as castor seeds, corn, and palm oil.

The research project is to spend 260 thousand pounds sterling, or about Rp2, 2 billion which is a grant from Scottish Enterprise. Now the University has filed patent applications for environmentally friendly fuels, and they plan to set up a company to market the fuel to various petrol pumps in the UK. (autoevolution)
