Coffee Powered Cars Are A Real Thing!
Scientists have found a way to make coffee power more than just radio DJs. Yep, you could soon be driving a car or truck that runs on coffee!
According to KCRA, those used coffee grounds you toss out could be used to make fuel for your car.
The process has been around for a while, but it was costly and time consuming. Now, researchers at Lancaster University in the UK have simplified the process of extracting the useful oils from the grounds. The process now only takes ten minutes.
Before long, they say they could be producing 720,000 metric tonnes of bio-diesel annually.
