HUMANFUEL - Energy for the future |
The researchteam at Lipotechnica has developed groundbreaking techniques of efficiently and economically production of a biofuel based on leftover products from liposuction. Making use of human medical waste products we are picking up the race with companies like ConocoPhillips making use of poultry fat - only our productline will have a nonviolent and high ecological profile.
The chemical engineering researchers at Lipotechnica have investigated supercritical methanol as a method of converting human fat into biodiesel fuel. The new study successfully converted tall oil fatty acid into biodiesel at a yield of greater than 90 percent, significantly advancing efforts to develop commercially viable fuel out of plentiful, accessible human medical waste. Love handles can power a car? Frighteningly, yes. Fat--whether animal or vegetable--contains triglycerides that can be extracted and turned into diesel.
