You could see fat people getting kiddnapped in some sort of "Mad Max" type phase of the Crash.

Re: New Fuel system

Why bother with human fat bio diesel when you go whole hog and use thermal depolymerization?

I doubt it.

I've been following CWT for years --ever since I made a substantial bet of one diet Coke with my sister. I stated it was a scam, she thought it was legitimate. (She passed away with the issue still unsettled and the soda still unclaimed.)

IMO, CWT is highly successful in producing odor from taxpayer subsidies. The oil produced is pretty much the same as you'd get from melting the fat out of any animal byproduct. The rest is just publicity for which we've paid some $30 million or so.

Every article I"ve found, to include Discovery, just adoringly repeats the same assertions from the company's press releases. Nobody, but nobody has ever done independent analysis of the product or process.

So if you believe it works, let's see an independent analysis of the process and product. I'm willing to be convinced, but not by our media.
Take care. Stetts

Re: New Fuel system

Ha Ha. Now lets compare that to the real "New Fuel System"

BYD Auto in China just beat all the world's car manufacturs to the punch launching the first electric hybrid. If the USA does not get thier act together fast....its over.

As early as in 2003, BYD started DM electric vehicles project, on which currently 500 auto engineers are working. DM stands for Dual Mode and BYD DM (Dual Mode) electric vehicle combines a solely electric vehicle system and a hybrid power system. The DM hybrid system is an advanced technology which integrates two hybrid powers to control electricity generator and electric motor, thus not only massively reducing fuel consumption and emission but also enhancing the power and operation performance. In addition, it enables dual energy supplies via both recharging and refueling, which makes up the dual mode hybrid system in the real sense. If we call an electric driven system “EV” and the hybrid electric system “HEV”, then BYD DM should be named “EV + HEV”. This system is bound to replace the traditional electric-gasoline hybrid system, becoming the most popular and advanced new energy hybrid system in the world.

Why bother with either, when we can apparently secure "human energy" by rather direct means...after all an exothermic reaction is all that's needed...right?

History of Spontaneous Human Combustion

Over the past 300 years, there have been more than 200 reports of persons burning to a crisp for no apparent reason.

It's never "over"...completely over, that is. The Chinese may be "formidable competitors", but let's not forget that they also face some formidable competitors, from somewhere else in the world, in pretty well everything they do.

I've been listening to reports of miraculous new fuels and magical vehicles with revolutionary economy and performance since before the first Arab oil embargo in 1973. Over the years I've also listened to regularly recycled stories about how the Big Oil companies bought up 100 mpg carburetors and squashed the research, vehicle fuel made from water [we even had a thread on that on iTulip in the past year or so ], how GM quietly wiped out creative inventors and technologies so they could keep selling Yukons, and other entertaining tales.

Now we're being subjected to the absurdity that GM/Ford/Chrysler are complete dinosaurs, irrelevant to the world's auto industry, and that years ago they should have changed themselves to "be like Toyota" as the model auto corporation all should follow. Fact is that the overwhelming majority of Toyotas that are sold in the world today are made using the same basic materials, put together in more or less the same combination, and powered by the same type of engines [petroleum-fueled internal combustion] as the stuff GM, Ford and Chrysler were making in the 1950s, '60's, '70s... The improvements have all been incremental...corrosion resistant steels, more sophisticated methods to preserve the integrity of the passenger cell and the people in it, fuel injection, multi-valve heads, computer managed engine/transmission systems, etc...but the basic vehicle has not changed in decades - an engine, transmission & differential, surrounded by a steel exterior body, lined with plastic & synthetic fabric on the interior.

So the logical question is: If Toyota and Nissan and BMW and Porsche and [fill in your favourite] are so much better than GM/Ford/Chrysler, why are they all still flogging the same basic car? They too have had more than 30 years since the first oil embargo to introduce remarkable new alternate energy and fuel economy technologies. Even the Prius cannot be considered anything other than a fringe experiment/science project, it forms such a miniscule part of Toyota's global sales volume.

It's clear that commercializing a truly radical change to the basic automobile, particularly the power plant, is extraordinarily difficult. $145 oil and four buck a gallon gasoline [it was $10 equivalent in the UK this summer] did nothing other than increase the "breakthrough technology hype-quotient" in the media. And I suspect that a decade from now the vehicle we are buying and driving will still be stunningly similar to what we drive today...and maybe the total numbers on the road in the USA and Canada are perhaps somewhat fewer than we have in aggregate today.
