A coffee-based biofuel is used to power London's public buses in a bid to reduce transport emission, local media reported.

据当地媒体报道,一种咖啡做的生物燃料于日前被用于为伦敦公共汽车提供动力,以减少交通排放。
Bio-bean, a green-energy startup, said it has produced enough coffee-derived biofuel to power one bus for a whole year.
绿色能源初创公司Bio-bean表示,已生产出足够的咖啡衍生生物燃料,可为一辆公交车提供一整年的动力。
The company collects waste coffee grounds, mostly from London's coffee shops, for processing and tops the resulting mixture with a range of animal and vegetable oil.
该公司主要从伦敦的咖啡店收集废弃的咖啡渣用于加工,并在所得混合物上覆以动物油和植物油。
The final mix, consisting of 80% diesel and 20% biofuels, can reduce carbon emissions from a bus journey by 10% to 15%.
最终混合物由80%的柴油和20%的生物燃料组成,可使公交车的二氧化碳排放量减少10-15%。

The buses can be powered by the new biofuel without the need for modification, said the company.

据报道,由食用油和肉类加工中产生的油脂制造的生物燃料已为伦敦约9500辆公交车提供动力。
