Chemists at the University of Illinois report the development of a nickel-based homogeneous catalyst that could more effectively support the production of fuels and chemical feedstocks from biomass as well as improved liquefaction of coal. A paper on their work is published in the current issue of Science.

CTV is developing proprietary technology and catalysts for the conversion of lignin into hydrocarbon components for transportation fuels. The presence of carbon monoxide in the syngas can assist with the conversion of lignin, and the observed effect is similar to that seen for coal hydroprocessing with syngas compared to hydrogen alone.

Pyrolysis bio-oils are produced by the thermal decomposition of biomass by heating in the absence of oxygen at more than 500 °C; fast pyrolysis of biomass is much less expensive than biomass conversion technologies based on gasification or fermentation processes. The gasoline-range alcohols can be high-octane gasoline additives.

CRI is presenting at the 4 th Conference on CO 2 as Feedstock for Fuels, Chemistry and Polymers , being held at the end of September in Essen, Germany. Methanol can be produced from a range of renewable sources and fossil-fuel based feed-stocks; in practice methanol is mainly produced in coal-rich China from coal.

Hyundai will in months offer 2 models that will leap frog toyota and honda by years - it will be based on a lithium POLYMER battery thats lighter, cheaper, and maintains charge many times longer than NiCad batteries and all at a price half that of Volt. Then they are driving by electric car conversions every day and not seeing them.
