Tobacco the fuel of the future

Scientist Drive 100 miles on a gallon of tobacco fuel



     Increase of vehicles,the need of fuel also increased and same time scientists idea 
is too fast to find solution for fuel need in future. 
 
A group of American scientists has formulated a gas out of the tobacco leaf. Little know to the gas industry, a team of scientists funded by a non profit corporation, have been studying various plants for their ability to be used as a substitute for oil as the new choice of fuel. To date using a highly sought method to process, this team has been successful with pretty much every plant that they have tried, the latest of which is tobacco.
The premiss of this research is to find a substitute for oil that, is plentiful in the United State, Which is a menace to our society, which can be mass produce, and which could easily be replaced. To date they have investigated more than 160 plants all with some sort of success. The big difference among all the plants is the emissions and the octane value.
Tobacco has proven to provide low emissions, and a high octane. As a gas, tobacco has shown to burn completely. At the minimum it is an excellent replacement for diesel fuel. But t has been formulated to run in regular gas engines with very little modification. The Question is, does the Government knows about this research, and when were they going to clue the general public in on it.
These scientists have said that corn ethanol is not the answer, it is a weak substitute as a fuel, and because of its burning inefficiency's, you get less milage per the gallon.
