Coskata uses "proprietary microorganisms" and patented bioreactor to produce ethanol. The microorganisms are fed a syngas and then they process the gas into ethanol. Coskata currently has five strains of these microorganisms (all from Oklahoma State University and Oklahoma University) that can make ethanol, butanol and other liquids. Coskata representatives told AutoblogGreen that they expect to increase the number of strains in the future, and will possibly be able to make other fuels from them. Roe also said that other automakers approached his company but that GM had the most long-term, most well-developed plan.

They said this ethenol can be produced anywhere.

Its nice to dream, but to many oil tycoons would cry if this idea ever took off. It reminds me of the Delorean in Back to the Future.

I'd so want a flexfuel engine if they can do this and get e85 up and around for under $2 a gallon. Cause then with the MPG hit e85 causes..it would still be worth it.

Think of all the fuel that can be made by the politicians in D.C. Oh, wait.... that's a different type of crap, isn't it?

Figure out how to make fuel from that crap..and with the politicians from DC and California the entire planet could be fueled forever.
