Researcher Describes Conceptual Cold Fusion Battery, or Small Power Unit

Green Car Congress

Once further optimized and energy conversion elements, such as thermoelectric converters, are added, the cell could produce electricity. It looks like it will have to be a thermal conversion—that makes it not quite as easy as if I could get a direct conversion to electricity. George, Utah. —Prof.

Diesel Brewing to Manufacture Cellulosic Biobutanol from Biomass and Manure With Thermochemical Process

Green Car Congress

Diesel Brewing’s process gasifies wood wastes, agricultural residues and manure into a syngas that is cleaned and fed into a catalytic reactor and purification system to generate a suite of alcohols containing butanol, ethanol and methanol. For now, we’ll focus on the production of biobutanol. million tons of dairy manure each year.
