16. That is one proposals
Bio-Diesel and Bio-mass Alcohol can be burned in Internal Combustion engines. I once commented that when oil is depleted in about 100 years, people will still be using Internal Combustion engines for certain functions. Such Engines will be run on bio-mass fuel not oil (and the Fuel may be $100-200 a gallon). What these will be I can guess, for example ambulances may be a priority, engines on blimps may be another, but such engines will still exist in very tiny niches given the price of fuel in 100 years. Thus the Internal Combustion engine will be around for a long while.
