Energy from hemp?
INDUSTRIAL HEMP | history | harvesting | a thousand and one uses | links
In the thirties, Henry Ford carried out an old dream : he created a car made up of hemp materials.
Entres autres, the body was made of plastic (was composed of hemp cellulosis). This car's propulsion system was using hemp gasoline (made of oil extracted from hemp seeds).
Need we mention that this fuel is much less polluting!
It is also possible to obtain methanol (another kind of fuel) from the cellulosis of the hemp plant stem.
