Cool Planet has devised a biomass-to-liquids thermochemical conversion process that simultaneously produces liquid fuels and sequesterable biochar useful as a soil amendment. Pine chips will be the feedstock source for the Cool Planet facility, but the company can use almost any type of renewable cellulosic material. Earlier post.).

has successfully demonstrated the conversion of municipal solid waste (MSW)—household garbage—into jet and diesel fuels. For that process, Fulcrum uses a two-stage thermochemical process involving gasification of municipal solid waste (MSW) followed by the catalytic conversion of the syngas to ethanol. Earlier post.).

Simultaneously, the researchers will ascertain which chemical catalysts and operating parameters should be used to optimize the conversion of the fatty acids into the desired fuels. Our goal is to optimize this technology so that it is cost-competitive, renewable, can be produced domestically and is environmentally friendly. —Dr.
