Eco-Friendly Car Runs On Wood Chips

Robert Beam wanted to run car on something other than gas. Then he thought of using wood to run car which he was taught in school. Then he started to design his own system using wood to run car, which included a furnace to burn wood to any sort of scrap and a fan to help in burning. Then the wood is lightened, it burns and converts into coal that burn at 2400 degree F. Then it is reduced t o CO and H2. These gases are enrouted to the four-stroke engine, where it is burnt finally and converted into mechanical energy. Disadvantage is smells like charcoal barbeque but runs at 45 miles per hour.
