New technology that recycles the carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from car engines is to be unveiled later this month at a Green Car exhibition in Liverpool.

Developed by Origo Industries, the system captures CO2 emissions from a vehicle’s engine and saves them to be transformed into bio-oil.

The bio-oil can then be used to re-power the car, or even to give free energy in the user’s home.

Bio-oil is created by regenerating the CO2 through algae in a home-based unit.

As with waste cooking oil, UK tax-payers will be able to re-use up to 2,500 litres of bio-oil every year tax free.

Origo’s technological breakthrough is to be premiered at the Green-Car-Guide Live! 2008 exhibition in Liverpool, which opens on the 12th June.

It is the biggest exhibition of its kind in the UK, and many other breakthrough technologies and vehicles will be on show, including the Ford Focus ECOnetic and te Suburu 4×4 Legacy Outback diesel.

Also on show will be sustainable versions of racing cars and transit vans, a biodiesel tractor, and even an electric powered taxi.
