Greenbox: Bio-Fuel From Car Fumes
28 Aug 2007
Greenbox is the name given to a new technology being touted as the next innovation that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles. The technology has been developed through the research of Derek Palmer, an organic chemist; and engineers, Ian Houston and John Jones from Wales in UK.
The greenbox can be fit under a car to replace the exhaust system. It would then capture the greenhouse gases like CO2 and NO2, and release water vapor into the atmosphere.
The trapped gases will be kept in a secure state inside the box, and the box will be transferred to a bioreactor, where the gases will be extracted and fed to genetically modified algae for biodiesel.

Nature gave us oil from algae; perhaps we should try Nature's way again
