Cardiff-based survival
equipment manufacturer
BCB International Ltd
has developed
the world’s first solid bio-
ethanol fuel, called FireDragon.
Following extensive laboratory
and field trials, the UK’s MoD has
decided to replace traditional
hexamine fuel tablets with the
new fuel, which is made from
sugar beet and can be used by
soldiers to heat their combat
rations and warm their drinks.
