Petronas and Lanzatech are partnering to extend LanzaTech’s CO fermentation technology to consume CO 2 for the production of acetic acid. These would then undergo a variety of thermochemical conversions to produce hydrocarbon fuels, chemical intermediates, or olefins. Source: LanzaTech. Click to enlarge.

The LCFS eliminates volume targets and focuses strictly on a fuel’s carbon intensity (CI) measured in gCO 2 /MJ on a well-to-wheel (WTW) basis—from extraction, conversion, transport, and combustion of the fuel. This orientation has incentivized specific technologies instead of the best solution. Earlier post.).

UK startup Libertine LPE has developed a free piston linear power generator technology that it says overcomes the key challenges faced by earlier free piston engine schemes of motion control, emissions and power conversion efficiency. Earlier post.) Both could reduce the engine’s efficiency and increase tailpipe emissions.
