Tested the world's first whiskey car

Recently in Edinburgh, UK, a company specializing in microbiology and modern processes, has run the world's first whistleblower whiskey test.

The fuel for running the car is a by-product of the distillation and fermentation of whiskey. This biofuel is called biobutanol , a biofuel appointment solution that can replace gasoline and diesel in the future.

Notably the car can run biofuel biobutanol without having to replace the engine to match the fuel. The car was first tested with biobutanol fuel at the University. Edinburgh Napier recently. This is the first time in history that a car can operate with a byproduct of whiskey .

The biobutanol product is a result of the company's production of Celtic Renewables microbial products in partnership with the Tullibardine winery.

According to Celtic Renewables founder Martin Tangney, the by-product of this whiskey is of no value. However, only by combining the liquid with solids and using the traditional fermentation process called ABE to produce biofuel bionutanol.

It is known that the process of making whiskey using the main ingredient is barley. After distillation and fermentation, barley residue and alcohol residue are major byproducts. The estimated wine industry in Scotland produces approximately 759 thousand tons of barley and 2 billion liters of beer per year.

Celtic Renewables recently received a £ 9m grant to build a biobutanol fuel plant. The plant is expected to operate in 2019 and add value to the Scottish industry.
