The biofuel and "mechanic cow"
1) Wood gas
One of the abilities of biofuel is it can be produced basically in the vehicle itself, and this has been given an idea of the thing, what is called "mechanic cow". The idea was taken from the wood gas, which was used in some vehicles, and the benefit of that kind of system is that it would use logs, chips, and other types of wood or solid burning material.
Here I don't speak about carbon dioxide waste, which can be big in that kind of engine. There are many types of this kind of vehicles, but the problem is that fuel requires lots of space. In some cases, wood gas has been used to boil water, which is conducted to turbine or piston steam engines.
2) The alcohol or rather saying ethanol
The ethanol is easy to produce by using starch, leaven, and sugar. The fermentation by using leaven and sugar would raise the alcohol percentage in liquid to 12%, but by using starch the ethanol level would rise to 96 percent.
This concentration can use as fuel, and it is used in the rockets and in some high-performance engines. The fermentation can put in the vehicle itself, and that means that the system can produce fuel inside the vehicle, and conduct it to the tank. The fermentation system allows that the high-performance jet-engines can get fuel from the local source. The liquid fuel rockets are using also ethanol or methane as fuel.
3) Biogas reactors
Biogas is the methane that is forming when the bacteria would rotten biological or organic material in the anaerobic condition. The biogas reactor can use every kind of organic material for creating the methane, and the thing in this kind of system is that it looks like normal water or fuel vessel.
In this case, the biomaterial would put in the tank, and that thing can be used to produce the fuel. The biogas can be used in power plants as well as in cars and aircraft. Every closed tank, which allows the anaerobic conditions offers the place, where the biogas and alcohol can be produced. The biogas and alcohol can produce in the airborne refueling aircraft as well in the tankers. So this kind of thing is an interesting choice for oil.
4) "Synthetic petroleum"
This means oil or gasoline is produced somewhere else than in the oil deposit. That kind of production happens by using biotechnology, or rather saying microbes, what is producing the oil in the conditions, what are similar to the natural conditions, where oil is forming.
The system can use geothermal energy for making and maintaining this process. And the system can also be lightweight and mobile. The laser drill makes possible to make very deep holes and the heat exchanger can be a drop in those holes by using elastic high-temperature resistant tubes, which will conduct the boiling water to the generator.
