Converting glycerol from biodiesel production into bio-gasoline

Green Car Congress

A team at the University of Idaho has demonstrated that glycerol, a byproduct from biodiesel production, could be used as a substrate for producing drop-in gasoline-range biofuel. The technology of converting methanol into gasoline was discovered and commercialized more than 3 decades ago. Tropsch synthesis (FTS).

China team develops efficient multifunctional catalyst for conversion of CO2 to gasoline-range hydrocarbons

Green Car Congress

Qingjie Ge at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics in China has developed an efficient, stable, and multifunctional Na-Fe 3 O 4 /HZSM-5 catalyst for the direct production of gasoline-range hydrocarbons from CO 2 hydrogenation. The gasoline fractions are mainly isoparaffins and aromatics, thus favoring the octane number.

EU project HyFlexFuel converted sewage sludge and other biomasses into kerosene by hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL); SAF

Green Car Congress

Meeting jet fuel specifications is an appropriate target to validate that highperformance transportation fuels can indeed be produced from a broad range of residue and waste streams via hydrothermal liquefaction. Under these conditions, biomass is converted into a crude bio-oil, which is separated from the process water behind the reactor.
