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 this case, about 30% CO is converted to CO 2 due to WGS reaction. T catalysts, which can convert CO 2 to CO by not only dry reforming but also RWGS.

The estimated energy efficiencies computed with the spreadsheet are comparable to those obtained with Aspen software. For the model considered, trucking biomass to a central facility without first converting it to PO is estimated to reduce energy efficiency by 1%. Fischer–Tropsch (FT) synthesis of the syngas into diesel fuel.

The basis for this study was a stand-alone gasification/synthesis process including sub-processes or unit operations for integrated tar reforming, acid gas scrubbing, and synthesis to methanol followed by conversion to gasoline. The biomass is chemically converted to a mixture of syngas components (CO, H 2 , CO 2 , CH 4 , etc.),

The revised statutory requirements for RFS2 also include new definitions and criteria for both renewable fuels and the feedstocks used to produce them, including new greenhouse gas emission (GHG) thresholds for renewable fuels and the incorporation of indirect land use change effects. forest, grassland).
