RSSWow: All Power Labs has converted a Honda Accord to run on trash:
We may not yet have a flux capacitor for time travel, but we do already have the equivalent of "Mr. Fusion", which if cleverly applied, will enable you to run your car on everyday "trash"-- today. This "magical" device is called a gasifier. And what it does is called gasification. ... This redeployment was made possible by the gasification of waste biomass, using simple gasifiers about as complex as a traditional wood stove. These small-scale gasifiers are easily reproduced (and improved) today by DIY enthusiasts using simple hammer and wrench technology.
A video of the gasification-powered car in action:
And, see Instructables for documentation of the whole conversion. Finally, a good use for all that scrap wood piled up in my backyard...
