Youth drives motorcycle from bio-fuel

Dang October 19- A youth has developed bio-fuel for running vehicles as an alternative to the petroleum products. Youth scientist Marshal Roka, of Ghorahi Municipality-11 in Dang district, developed the bio-fuel to drive a motorcycle by processing the resin of Sallo tree.

Organizing a news conference on Sunday, in Ghorahi, Roka demonstrated his success by driving the motorcycle, with the bio-fuel prepared from the resin of Sallo tree, around the Ghorahi bazaar. The bio-fuel could be used as a substitute to the petroleum products though its lab test has not been held so far.

However, Roka has claimed that the bio-fuel is cheaper than petrol i.e. Rs 70 per liter and has low fuel consumption rate.
