Scientists find improved approach for creating fuel from biowaste, making it a good substitute for fossil fuels

It seems like every day, researchers find yet another fossil fuel alternative. Not that anyone should be complaining. This time, a team of researchers from the University of Calgary have developed a method to produce a much higher quality and more stable fuel from biowaste, such as raw sewage, which is simpler and a lot […]
