Gluttony: Porky Petrol?
Speaking of pig feces, here comes the next cool idea:
Chemically, pig poo isn’t as different from oil as one might think (or hope). In Zhang’s reactor, a process known as thermochemical conversion partially breaks down hydrocarbon molecules that make up most of the dung, and voila: porky petrol.It's not everyday that I get to trot out one of my favorite Simpsons reference, TWICE!:
Homer: Heh heh heh. Ooh, yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.
(ht to Ace, who has a funny Middle East take on it)

Update: It occurs to me that I should have made some "Beyond Thunderdome" reference here... Consider it done.
