After the earlier we read that the bus in Oslo will use fuel from human waste, this time can also be used for private cars, precisely in the VW Beetle. GENeco, a company that processes waste results in Bristol, England have proved that human waste can also be useful, other than cow manure, of course. They have succeeded in modifying a VW Beetle car (called Bio Bug) that can use methane fuel derived from human feces. Bio Bug requires only human waste from 70 homes to be able to walk as far as +/- 16 000 km, quite right? Bio Bugs can also be regarded as the hybrid car because in addition to human sewage, this car could run as usual by using the fuel. Before you imagine that, of course manure is not incorporated directly into the car well.
