efficent trash


I found an article about a portable biorefinery that turns decomposable trash into electricity. I haveread about farms that use methane from cow manure to create electricty but this one I found particularly interesting. This biorefinery can use kitchen scraps to create portabel power for troops, from 2,500 pounds of trash a day it can power 3 mess tents. I want to know when I can run my car on food scraps like in Back to the Future part 2
