\nA Royal Dutch Shell gas station in Canada has become world\u2019s first to fill gas tanks of cars with biofuel made from wheat straw. For a trial period gasoline bought at the gas station will be containing 10% ethanol blended into the regular fuel. This will be running for one month at the Ottawa Gas Station. The price of the fuel will remain the same.<\/p>\n
\nGlobally many gas companies are slowly moving into both corn based and next-generation cellulosic based bio fuels. Overall cellulosic output has been slow due to the high costs and technological challenges. Shell and Iogen is jointly operating a gas station in Ottawa that produces just 40000 liters of bio fuel a month. They are also working hard to commercialize on a very large scale.
