Inventor turns dead cats into diesel
A German inventor says he's found a way to make cheap diesel fuel out of dead cats.

Dr Christian Koch, 55, from Kleinhartmannsdorf, said his method uses old tyres, weeds and animal cadavers.

They are heated up to 300 Celsius to filter out hydrocarbon which is then turned into diesel by a catalytic converter.

He said the resulting "high quality bio-diesel" costs just 15 pence per litre.

Koch said the cadaver of a fully grown cat can produce 2.5 litres of fuel - meaning around 20 cats are needed for a full tank.

He said: "I tank my car with my own diesel mixture and have driven it for 105,000 miles without any problems."

Annelise Krauss of the Dresden Animal Protection Association blasted Koch's new diesel though, saying: "This is as bad as experimenting on animals."

A while back I remember reading about a guy who was doing something similar with chicken waste, he would gets TONS of chicken waste from a chicken processing plant, all the waste stuff, cook it down and get out a light oil perfect for BioD.

The solids left over made great fertilizer.

sounds like a plan to me.

Sir Sam: If you get the recipe again, pass it on, I work at a lot of waste water plants that will be willing donators.

By chicken waste, I means guts, bones, feathers, beaks.....etc

I hope you can't get that kind of human waste. :shock:

Back end waste, but it has a lot of the same stuff minus the bones. The calcium in the bones would be of little use in the oil. Rendering plants process the dead farm animals into grease and feed solids and sell both to animal feed producers for more money than biodiesel. Bond any carbon source with hydrogen and you will produce a hydro carbon.

The southern appalachian mountains (north georgia, tennessee, north carolina, etc) have a huge poultry business. One of the largest Biodiesel manufacturers in GA is exclusively poultry-based. I used to buy their fuel and it was great, but now they're getting the federal subsidies and off-shoring it for blending abroad because it's more lucrative.

Here in the Tulsa area a "cat cracker" is a high temperature/pressure vessel for converting long hydrocarbon chains to shorter ones. This German gives it a wonderful new meaning.
