E-Fuel MicroFueler

From time to time a truly revolutionary idea comes along. The E-Fuel Micro Fueler could be such a product because of its potential to change the way American's purchase gasoline. The E-Fuel MicroFueler™ is the world's first portable ethanol micro-refinery system; it replaces the traditional ethanol reflux column system with a solid state distillation technology, making it possible for homeowners and small businesses to safely and cost-effectively create their own fuel, on-site. The E-Fuel Corporation's technological breakthrough significantly reduces the size and weight of traditional fermentation and distillation systems needed to produce ethanol. Dedicated to the "produce where you consume" energy model, E-Fuel allows consumers to produce ethanol at the point of consumption, eliminating many problems associated with large-scale ethanol production, namely inefficient transportation and distribution, and the use of coal-fired electrical plants. E-Fuel was founded in 2007 by entrepreneur Tom Quinn and ethanol scientist Floyd Butterfield to create the world's first home ethanol product for people who want to break their dependency on oil. E-Fuel has created a business model and product design that makes home ethanol access practical and cost competitive against gasoline. To achieve this, E-Fuel focused on three goals: Removing the costly oil infrastructure from the process of producing and delivering ethanol Use of carbon credits to reduce pricing of ethanol feedstock Stimulate ethanol demand through low cost of ethanol fuel (under $1 per gallon) Click on the following link to learn more: http://www.microfueler.com/default.aspx
