The EU-funded COMSYN project aims to develop a production concept for competitive bio-based fuels by means of a compact gasification and synthesis process. The Fischer-Tropsch products will be upgraded to fuels in existing central oil refineries, also bringing the benefits of economy of scale for the overall process. million (US$6.1

A team from the University of Vaasa (Finland) and UPM-Kymmene Corporation has examined how the blends of fossil and renewable diesel produced from crude tall oil (CTO) affect the performance and exhaust emissions of the modern common-rail off-road diesel engine. In the present study, the renewable fuel was, however, also studied in neat form.

The production process was developed in the UPM Biorefinery Research and Development Center in Lappeenranta, Finland. The fuel supplied by Finland-based UPM Biofuels is the first biofuel derived from wood residue used in a marine fleet. This resulted in a CO 2 saving of 600Mt over the operating period.

The newest class of ships from Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd (RCL) will be powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG) and likely will introduce the use of fuel cell technology, ushering in a new era of shipbuilding that will significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We believe fuel cells offer very interesting design possibilities.

This makes black liquor the fifth most important fuel in the world, next to coal, oil, natural gas, and gasoline. One pathway that has been explored to produce biochemicals and fuels from black liquor is gasification.

This was in part caused by marked changes in attitude and regulations around the use of diesel fuels which has had the unintended consequence of pushing people to drive higher-CO 2 -emitting gasoline vehicles. Despite this positive change, their emission levels were still higher than the averages they recorded in 2016 and 2017.
