Considering that levulinic acid is available with more than 80% conversion from raw biomass, a field-to-tank yield of drop-in, cellulosic gasoline of more than 60% is possible, the researchers claimed. Biodiesel, refined from plant-based oils, is already commercially available to run modified diesel engines.
