science will always find ways to turn corn into anything.
Corn is like the underdog of oil. Which is such a strange sentence to say.
I’m pretty sure that if it wasn’t for the Spaniards, the Aztecs would have reached the moon by now using maize fuel.
Big Ag will always find ways to turn corn into anything.
When you get paid just to produce the thing, it’s also nice if you can actually use it for something I guess
No, that’s mostly americans.
Sounds great, if it’s non-allergenic too it would be a great product.
george washington carver did it in a field! with a box of peanuts!
And we will never hear about them again the same way as about those battery improving scientists.
But we DID hear about all those battery improving scientists again. If you compare the batteries in your current smartphone with those from 10 years ago, you can see quite the difference in performance (charge/discharge speed), longetivity (charge/discharge cycles) and capacityIsize. Those things take time, and not every innovation that is found is cost effective or practical as an industrial process - but it might be later on, awaiting additional knowledge to empower it.
It all depends if this can be produced in big quantities without it being too expensive.
Did you even read the article? It literally states that this is cheap and abundant.
It does not say how they make it; just because it’s cheap for them to make in small scale is not enough info. Many good things easy to make on a workbench fail to be marketed
I didn’t and I agree with you!
