Georgia Southern researchers striving to better understand and promote the use of alternative fuels recently were awarded a $250,000 grant to advance their "green" revolution. The university announced this week that it was awarded the United States Department of Energy Grant, allowing researchers to study the emissions of bio-fuels intended to replace fossil fuels. "This grant is going to allow us to explore the different type of bio-fuels we have available to us, and what the emissions look like coming out of the vehicle," said Bret Danilowicz, dean of the Allen E. Paulson College of Science and Technology.
