Thats a 2 edge sord , its good that an alt. fuel is getting some major looking at , but when the big companies get into it , they have there people make the laws such that they are the only ones allowed to play the game .
Chemically once there treated the vegi oils & fats are the same .

fuel from food ?????????

WOW what a novel idea?



Hello!!!!!!!!!! what do you think Mr. R. Diesel said O like 90 years ago. same with Mr. H. Ford, Mr. G. W. Carver also!!!!!



Don't get me wrong this is a great. but there just blowing there own horn. this is nothing new.

if you can fuel a diesel with the crap they try to tell us (they call it news) then you have some thing to talk about.



What I like about the story is the price of the fuel will depend on the price of the turkey/chicken/cow/pig fat. WOW THATS NEWS TO ME.



GIVE ME A BREAK.

Tyson has to find a way to make up for the cost of feed now that ethanol is making corn prices go up.

I have a article in a journal for rendering where they wer say that they should be getting in on biodiesel at the time, and that was over 4 years ago. It is nice to see somebody is finally taking it main stream. The added bonus is that they are again utilizing something that was before simply thrown away like the used vegy oil. The only downfall is that it will gel at even warmer temperatures than vegy oil. Enough of my bandwagon.

ConocoPhillips has the know how with a new polimerization process they are itching to try. At least we find a oil company forward thinking enough to start he process of alternative energys. 22. 8 million to Iowa state for research, Tyson foods, oil shale production, and ethanol research.
