With this application in mind, we created spirocyclic polymers with N-aryl bonds that demonstrated noninterconnected microporosity in the absence of ladder linkages. The resulting glassy polymer membranes demonstrated nonthermal membrane fractionation of light crude oil through a combination of class- and size-based “sorting” of molecules.

Avantium, which spun off from Shell in 2000 to develop furan-based biofuels and biomaterials ( earlier post ), has raised €30 million (US$43.9 million) to advance its YXY technology, which converts carbohydrates into furanic building blocks for making renewable materials and fuels.

Mascoma will then convert the feedstock to cellulosic ethanol through its proprietary process, which produces lignin as a by-product. Chevron has filed applications for two patents on processes to convert lignin to a hydrocarbon feedstock via hydroprocessing; both applications were published on 3 September 2009. Earlier post.)

World’s first integrated Power-to-Liquid (PtL) test facility to synthesize fuels from the air-captured carbon dioxide. This combination of technologies promises optimal use of the carbon dioxide and maximum energy efficiency, as mass and energy flows are recycled internally. Photo: P2X project/Patrick Langer, KIT).

Although currently better known for its efforts with hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines, BMW has researched low-temperature PEM (Polymer Electrolyte Membrane) fuel-cell technology has been researched and developed at BMW since 1997. However, this side effect is particularly useful during the warming-up phase.

This area currently has three areas of focus: Intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells; Polymer electrolyte fuel cells; and. We need a way of producing alternative cleaner fuels, minimizing use of hydrocarbons, or at a minimum recycling the carbon dioxide to form these more useful fuels. Reversible fuel/electrolysis cells.
