Previously discarded as waste, researchers at the University of Delaware are developing an innovative way to put all that wasted plumage to use â€" as fuel to power hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. If this technology was implemented in a fuel cell vehicle, it would cost about $200, as opposed to using carbon nanotube tanks (which cost about $5.5 million) or metal hydrides (which cost about $30,000)."

    Chicken Feathers May Fuel Hydrogen Cars in the Future

    Chickens may start losing sleep over more than Americans' love of McNuggets. Chicken consumption in the US creates over six billion pounds of feathers each year. Previously discarded as waste, researchers at the University of Delaware are developing an innovative way to put all that wasted plumage to use -- as fuel to power hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
