Al Barr Farm Waste Fuel Energy Recrudesced by Pakistani Engineer

Al Barr Farm Waste Fuel Energy Recrudesced Update:


A Pakistani scientist is on a mission to transform farm waste to Ethanol fuel, and he therefore has got a practical plan for the implementation of his mission.

We’ve heard from the newspapers lot of times about converting chemical energy to Ethanol fuel, but we haven’t seen much development in this regard in Pakistan.

It has a practical plan to promote this area. Al Barr Farm Waste Fuel Energy Recrudesced.
He is of the belief that his method of transformation which he named as “Al-Barr.”

This could assist in making Ethanol from millions of tons by using straw that would otherwise be wasted.


He is a graduate of Imperial College of London. He has got a master’s degree in innovation design engineering.

About Al Barr Farm Waste Fuel Energy Recrudesced

Syed Hussain Abid has designed and engineered a mechanism. 


This converts straw from wheat, barley, and sugarcane into Ethanol.

Because with over 50 million tons of straw waste at his disposal, Hussain can easily carry on his research to find out a better and more efficient method for fuel consumption.

Al Barr Farm Waste Fuel Energy Recrudesced can be ultimately used as automobile fuel.
It will be a safer and cleaner way to power stoves in kitchens across the rural areas in the country.


Ethanol is already used as a major source of motor fuel additive in developing economies.

This is an environment friendly fuel which burns and emits less harmful pollutants across the atmosphere.

Common blends of ethanol fuel include E 10 (commonly used in the USA) which contains up to 10% Ethanol.

Another blend of ethanol is E85 which contains 85% Ethanol and is also use widely across the world. Al Barr Farm Waste Fuel Energy Recrudesced.

Besides that Ethanol is currently exporting the fuel to these countries:
  • China,
  • India,
  • South Korea,
  • Canada,
  • Brazil.
Therefore, experts predict that the global Ethanol market will grow to US $53.1 billion by 2025.

Currently, Pakistan imports fuel which costs over $20 billion every year.

Most importantly using Ethanol as a fuel additive can help Pakistan decrease its over-dependence on imported fuel.

At present, the government does not offer financial assistance or tax benefits for the production or marketing of Ethanol or ethanol-blended fuels. Al Barr Farm Waste Fuel Energy Recrudesced.
Research and development on growing the use of locally produced Ethanol.

It is also not currently supports authorities in Pakistan.

The only noteworthy development in this regard was that of PSO’s launch of an E10 Ethanol fuel blend in 2006. Now it is not available in Pakistan.
