Absolutely there is. Our oil partner is a chemist, and the creator of our oil, and some of the awesome things that are keeping our troops safe from chemical warfare, among many other things has told me before it's definitely possible, and if there was a market for it, he would do it in a heartbeat. He said he knows how to do it, and will not hurt the environment as well.
