WW II nazi war machine run on high grade diesel (common name kerosene) made from COAL ...so possibilities http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directory:Biodiesel are :


coal and shale oil dirt

trash... yes common land fill thrash

plastics

kitchen grease

algea

Other oil rich plants

All those substances can be harvested, and employing the old but now more efficient derivatives of the fischer tropsch process

In the section "fuels" in this "greencarcongress" site you can see among many others, some of those improved fischer tropsch processes... BTL CTL GTL LFG...

And engines to match the "new" fuel paradigma, directly applicable to current techs

particularly fund of 3

http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directo..._rotary_engine

This isn't about bashing the scum oil war lords, though IMHO a perfectly deserved title, this is about that the actual tech, most applicable to motorsport is all but modern ( really really obsolete) including the engines.
