NASA looks to Brazil for biofuel
Brazilian biofuel company, Tecbio, is working with NASA and Boeing on a biokerosene aviation fuel, according to a report from Mercopress.com.
Tecbio created a vegetable-oil-based fuel to power airplanes in 1980, flight-tested it in 1984 but then abandoned it. Interest has arisen again, thanks to high oil prices.
