ECOFA A viable solution

June of 2007

June of 2007

We were in Soto de la Vega with the lieutenant mayor of

the Town Hall, Lorenzo Callejo. In his own nave and

using organic wastes from domestic rubbish and other

organic residues we started the unusual elaboration of

Francisco Angulo's fuel.

Apart from the organic residues, we have got a receptacle

and a drill with an adaptation to beat and grind the

mixture. This is enough! You must add water to the

mixture to make casier the trituration of the residues.

Finally, the product of bacteria and yeast is added to the

mixture to conclude the process and the content is left to

settle in beakers.

The result was that in fact it worked. Not only in Nice's

vehicle but also was proved in a tractor with identical

15

results. The governement equipment prepared the act and

convoked the media:

The purpose of this communication is to invite him

personally to the event that will take place next Saturday

28th of July at 18:00 hours in the Culture House of this

Town Hall in Soto de la Vega.

It's a reaffirmation act against the enviromental

contamination produced by fossil fuels. As we know,

several interventions have been done and we want to

contribute, from the Town Hall, doing one's bit.

Through our recent created New Technologies Council we

want to promote I+D+i projects developing plans to get it

and promoting initiatives that we consider interesting. By

this reason, we sponsor the presentation of the novel ‘The

Relic’ written by Francisco Angulo Lafuente, where he

exposes his patent to the extration of ecological fuel from

organic residues obtained from domestic rubbish. We

would be before an alternative that, besides contributing to

the enviromental non-contamination, would mean a first

step to the solution to the problems derived of the

accumulation of the waste that are produced in our

villages and towns.

The original complement that we have prepared for the

presentation of ‘The Relic’ is a practical demostration of

the patent, by means of an usual diesel vehicle and a

tractor in which some small modifications have been done

for its correct working with the said ecological fuel.

The act celebrated in Soto de la Vega was very successful

because of its participation and publicity. Apart from

meaning two different moments: before and after the

culmination of the ups and downs of life, that have been

making uneasy Francisco his life for several years. On the

one hand, this understable: and anonymus young man who

turns up before institutions and enterprises to expose in a

very little time a project which, at first sight, can be

considered as a sciencie-fiction one, and obviously these

weren't the most propicious circumstances. The fact that

an official organitation, as a town hall, supported the

public demostration of the viability and working of

ECOFA, and the large echo that it had in all media, as

provincial as in other communities, like Castilla-La

Mancha television, or even National tv stations like the

report made by España Directo, was the starting signal for

the short race that had started several months ago, since a

lot of companies are showing that are interested, and

certainly there will be one which decides to implicate

economically in the project and develop the suitable line

17

of investigations to optimize process in order to get its

future world commercialization.

However, it hasn't been easy because to land in the

scientifit ortodoxya against the heuristics that this

discovery supposes and in the stormy one of investors,

mediators and finantial brokers. Where there are a big

‘faune’ of characters with unknown interest and intentions,

sincerely it has propitiated to write this novel which from

this moment will be a binnacle of adventures.
