To counter this, ReShip researchers are looking to stabilize freshly produced pyrolysis biofuel through mild, rapid, low-temperature catalytic hydrogen treatment. In cooperation with PFI they will also seek to blend the bio-oil with conventional diesel and surfactant to form a multi-component fuel.

Could the answer to our transport needs have been right in front of our faces all this time? Conventional cars work by exploding fuel and air in a chamber to exert force on the pistons, but what if rather than using an explosion to provide that pressure on the piston, you just stored your ‘fuel’ at a constant high pressure.
