ThermalDepolymerization

ThoughtStorms Wiki

Turns almost any organic matter (including plant, animal and plastics waste) into oil, water, mineral residue.

Sounds too good to be true : https://web.archive.org/web/20040603054345/http://www.mindfully.org/Energy/2003/Anything-Into-Oil1may03.htm

May be a catch somewhere. But interesting if it works out.

Update : Maybe a scam : https://web.archive.org/web/20050914074520/http://www.mindfully.org/Technology/2005/Changing-World-Technologies-Palmer9apr05.htm

Mind you, all that turning "waste" meat into oil is a bit nightmarish though. Shades of ThaMatrix :-) Somehow the idea of raising animals simply to kill and power vehicles seems a lot worse than raising and killing animals to eat.
