IIT Kharagpur develops new technology to manufacture biofuel
Researchers at IIT Kharagpur have developed a pollution-free method which uses natural resources to extract biofuel while converting the waste into biofertilizer. The "soil-to-soil" technology, in process of being patented, breaks down biomass without chemicals making the manufacturing process cheaper and quicker, researchers said. Notably, India aims to blend 20% biofuel with petrol by year end.
