The US Department of Energy (DOE) will award ( DE-FOA-0000996 ) up to $12 million in funding to advance the development of a cost-competitive pathway to produce high-performance carbon fiber for vehicle lightweighting from renewable non-food biomass. Reducing a vehicle’s weight by just 10% can improve fuel economy by 6% to 8%. Background.

Thermochemical direct liquefaction pathways are unique in their ability to accept readily widely varied non-food, high-impact biomass and to produce bio-oil feedstocks that may be further processed into a range of hydrocarbons that are similar to those found in crude oil derived products, DOE notes. Solvent liquefaction (i.e.

In CO fermentation, explained LanzaTech Communications Director Freya Burton, CO can serve as the carbon and the energy source whereas CO 2 can serve only as the carbon source. Accordingly, LanzaTech has begun look at the industrial conversion of acetic acid/acetate to lipids, and has demonstrated this. Source: LanzaTech.
