LanzaTech’s proposed gas-to-liquids platform. 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. Lipids, in turn, are a proven pathway to jet, diesel and gasoline. Carbon Dioxide as a Feedstock.

Pressure on the RFS2 has increased as statutory mandated volumes of biofuel exceed the “blendwall” of 10% ethanol in gasoline. Ethanol has about one-third lower energy density than gasoline; accordingly, cars drive fewer miles per gallon when operating on ethanol blends compared with unblended gasoline.

For the tests, they used a turbo diesel (TDI) engine from a 2001 Volkswagen Jetta equipped with a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and operating on ultra-low sulfur diesel.

Using corn crop residue to make ethanol and other biofuels reduces soil carbon and under some conditions can generate more greenhouse gases than gasoline, according to a major, multi-year study by a University of Nebraska-Lincoln team of researchers published in the journal Nature Climate Change.

You can fill it up at the gas station, and you can plug it in to any 120-volt outlet. But when you do, your car essentially becomes an electric vehicle with a gas-tank backup. So youll have a cleaner, cheaper, quieter car for your local travel, and the gas tank is always there should you need to drive longer distances.

In 1978, a Clean Air Act waiver allowed the use of 10 volume percent ethanol in gasoline (E10). Today, almost all gasoline are E10 blends. In June 2011, EPA approved a partial waiver for blends of 15 vol% ethanol in gasoline for use in model year 2001 and newer passenger cars, light-trucks and medium-duty vehicles.
