After my post about a car that runs on water by Mr.Daniel Dingel. I was so interested to find more about other alternative fuel or Bio fuel vehicle. Bio fuel is now a very in demand for its environment friendly benefit.Other than water fuel vehicle or a Hydrogen and Oxygen Bio fuel car, I found a compress air fuel vehicle. This vehicle is invented by MDI (Moteur Development International).This car is made of lightweight materials such as aluminum and alloy steels. Its air tank is made of safety carbon fiber that can hold tremendous quantity of compress air to avoid explosion during an accident.They dedicate fourteen years of research and development of this new amazing vehicle. Guy Negre has developed this engine that could become one of the biggest technological advances of this century. Its application to Compressed Air Technology (CAT) vehicles gives them significant economical and environmental advantages. With the incorporation of bi-energy (compressed air + fuel) the CAT Vehicles have increased their driving range to close to 2000 km with zero pollution in cities and considerably reduced pollution outside urban areas. Compress-air as a new bio fuel is now a new viable form of power that allows the increase and transport of energy. With this new alternative fuels, we can save huge amount of money, and we can promote better environment for our future children and grandchildren.
Here's the Video:
MDI right now is consistently starting the full production of a series of engines and vehicles for world wide distribution using compress air as a new bio fuel or a fuel alternative. According to MDI, the application of the MDI engine in other areas, outside the automotive sector, opens a multitude of possibilities in nautical fields, co-generation, auxiliary engines, electric generators groups, etc. This is a very good new for all of us, whether water or a compress air fueled car. It is still for our own benefits. We should be very thankful for these people.

Water for Fuel? Is this Real?
Last night I watch you tube and I searched about new fuel alternatives and bio fuel. One video had caught my attention and as I watch the video, I was amazed and wish that this is true. The video is about water serve as a fuel for a car. And I remember back in my high school days on our chemistry experiment. Electrolysis of water can be split into two components hydrogen and oxygen than can serve as fuel. However, electrolysis of will need a lot of power to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. And a car is only run by a 12volt battery, which is obviously not enough to operate electrolysis. However a Filipino scientist named Mr. Daniel Dingel run his car with “TAP WATER." Mr. Dingel starts building his water-fuel engine as early as 1969 and dedicates his 30 years on developing his invention. According to him, his engine has a chamber that breaks apart water molecules to produce combustible hydrogen as a bio fuel. Electricity from a 12-volt car battery to use to split the water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen components, with the hydrogen then used to fuel the car engine.
Mr. Daniel Dingel has no patents for his invention and many of science associations or groups are giving a label for his invention as a fraud. However, Mr. Daniel Dingel has showed his car to public without any technical papers or explanation how real was his invention. His invention obviously is a major threat for all the oil companies around the world, but a major advantage and blessing to us consumers. Some of us may think this is just another science fiction or a hoax. However, these people or inventors give their full time, effort and money just to make new things for our benefits. Discovering new fuel alternatives and bio fuels are very useful for us.We should give them respect and gratitude for what they are doing for us. And if this water-fuel car does work, it would be a fantastic invention for all of us. Here's his video:

Planted Fuel
Have you ever wished our fuel will be free? If yes, you are 1 of the 98% of car owners around the world that having problem on our car's fuel consumption. Fuel consumption sometimes overtakes our budget on food for everyday living. Fuel consumption depends on engine size and engine displacement. However, how we drive our car also effects what our fuel consumption would be. If you are one of those people who drive like “street racers”, you definitely have higher fuel consumption. These kinds of drivers are driving in sudden brake and sudden acceleration mode.
Here in the Philippines, our government and its people are working on new reliable fuel alternatives or bio fuel. Philippines are importing 90% of its fuel overseas, and fuel cost increases almost every week. This oil price hike in the end of the line will cause major pain to the consumers. And dangerous oil fumes from petroleum or fossil fuels are damaging our environment.Alternative Fuels or Bio fuel will be the key for this problems.
JATROPHA CURCAS
Philippines because it vast land can now produce its own Bio fuel through planting. Yes through PLANTING, many plants here in Philippines can be a good source of bio fuel. Jatropha curcas or locally called tuba tuba in Luzon and Kasla in the visayas is one of those fuel alternatives plants. Jatropha is a 5-8 feet high wild fruit bearing tree with wide leaves. Its nut are used to produce Bio-diesel fuel and for soap productions. 3 kilos of Jatropha nuts can produce 1 liter of pure Jatropha Oil. Jatropha Oil is now in demand in other part of the world and many entrepreneurs distinguish the positive potential of this plant on the business point of view for Bio Fuel production. If you own a plantation of Jatropha curcas, you can start harvesting after 1-2 years from planting exactly 12 - 15 tons per hectares on the first harvest and it almost double its production every succeeding harvest until its 7th year of age. Jatropha nuts can be sold for P5 or $0.10 per Kg to Jatropha oil processing plant for Bio-diesel or Bio Fuel Production.
COCONUTS
Aside from Jatropha curcas, you can also produce Bio Fuel or bio-diesel from coconuts. Coconut was also a huge source for cooking oil production, virgin coco oil and Bio-diesel. Coconuts are known as a tree of life because of its general efficacy. With this tree alone you can build a house and have a food to eat for survival. Its juice from the nuts is also good remedy for Urinary tract Infection as most doctors advise. At this time, coconut oil is very in demand to the consumers. Coconut oils for Bio Fuel or Bio-diesel and cooking oil production are now its main function. To maximize the coconut oil usage, many chemists produce bio-diesel from a used cooking oil. Cooking oil will be purified and processed for bio-diesel productions. Bio-diesel or Bio Fuel compare to petroleum diesel are cleaner and less emission.
