Ever hear about the possibilities of getting methane gas from Cow dung??
Well, some scientists in Japan have taken that one step further....
They have created gasoline from Cow dung. They have extracted 0.042 ounces of gasoline from 3.5 ounces of cow dung.
I'm not sure how efficient it actually is to make this... I wonder how much energy was taken to extract that amount of gasoline from the dung.
(Yahoo article here)
The article states that Japan alone creates 551 155 tons of cow dung per year. It would be interesting to see the Math involved!
