Invention knows no boundary, only sky is the limit. This epitaph has been proved true once again by the scientists from Scotland. They have developed a whiskey-based biofuel that can be used to fuel ordinary cars without any special adaptations. It took almost two years for researchers to obtain biofuel from two of whiskey’s by-products viz. pot ale – the liquid from the copper stills – and the spent grains called draff.
‘The new biofuel is made from biological material which has been already generated and can be used entirely on its own provided there are distributers making it available’. On the other, biofuel has an edge over ethanol as former can be used in any engine with any gasoline blend, while latter can be blended up to 85% and requires engine modifications. We surely have to adore this invention as developing bio-fuel from excess material like whiskey by-products makes more sense than specially growing crops for it.
