Argonne study shows range of GHG reductions for electrofuel Fischer-Tropsch; up to 108% reduction

Green Car Congress

A team at Argonne National Laboratory’s Systems Assessment Center has evaluated the well-to-wheel (WTW) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Fischer–Tropsch (FT) fuels produced via various electrolytic H 2 pathways and CO 2 sources; using various process designs (i.e., Zang et al. —Zang et al. 0c05893.

Researchers propose CO2 recycling to improve Fischer-Tropsch GTL efficiency and reduce total CO2 emissions

Green Car Congress

Researchers in South Korea are suggesting two new carbon-dioxide-utilized Gas-to-Liquids processes (CUGP) to increase the overall efficiency of conventional Fischer-Tropsch GTL. In a paper in the ACS journal Environmental Science & Technology , they report that the two CUGP options increase carbon efficiency by 21.1?41.3%

EPA Proposes New Regulations for Renewable Fuel Standard to Implement Requirements of EISA; GHG Reduction and Indirect Land Use Change Effects Included

Green Car Congress

Emissions for select fuel pathways for the two time horizon/discount rate approaches. The US Environmental Protection Agency released its expected Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) detailing the implementation of changes to the existing Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS1) as required by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA).
