Biofuel breakthrough made from microbes

Members of the Joint Bioenergy Institute have found a possible bio-fuel composed of two microbes; bacteria and yeast, this combination can produce a bio-diesel and basically is a synthetic more environmental friendly way of making diesel.
This New bio-fuel is considered advanced, and can be used to replace gasoline and jet fuel.
The bio-fuel has caught the eye of many people and companies but most interested in this fuel is the military; this would substantially cut the cost of the 81% of their money that the military spends on fuel alone.
