A group of Spanish developers working for a company called Ecofasa just announced a new biofuel made up from trash. This isn't a biodiesel made from used frying oil; instead, it's made from general urban waste which is treated by bacteria. The result of that bacteria? Fatty acids that can be used to produce standard biodiesel. According to the company's CEO, the process is fully biologic, competes with no feedstock and is really sustainable. However, the process doesn't yield that much actual fuel: just one liter of biodiesel from 10 kg of trash. The project is now in a development phase, but Ecofasa said that a commercially viable model could be ready in three to four years. ECOFA is a new fuel, which due to its origin, its production and its solution to the inherent problems in any kind of organic waste, specially the urban solid waste, it is called 'eco.combustible' adding FA (initials of Francisco Angulo) in honor of his discoverer This is its definition: Ecofa biofuel is a subgroup of biofuels that comes from fatty acids biosynthesized from microbes and to used it in current internal combustion engines and diesel Otto" biotite Scientific Biotechnology Laboratory. Sevilla (Spain) July 200 It is based on the metabolism's bionatural principle, by mean of which all living organisms, including bacteria, produce fatty acids. The great contribution of Francisco Angulo's patents, this is why its incalculable economic value, is exactly that this principle is used to the ...
