A Fuel Alternative. The Search for an Alternative Fuel to Save the Environment… And Our Pockets. Long gone are the days were one could drive into a petrol station and fuel up your highly inefficient gas guzzling vehicle without a care for the environment and sustainability. The recent spike in the price at the bowser‚ damage to the environment and diminishing reserves has made it clear that a new‚ sustainable and clean fuel must be created in order for our vehicles and economy to operate.

the sun to chemical energy that is used as food‚ photosynthesis is used for the everyday undertakings by some organisms and plants during their life span. This complex method of energy production is also represented by the equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 +6O2 (Campbell‚ 2008). The sun’s light waves‚ also known as radiation or electromagnetic energy‚ are measured and organized into the electromagnetic spectrum. Waves on the electromagnetic spectrum are measured in nanometers (nm); the shorter a
