Reaction pathway for conversion of GVL to liquid transportation fuels. The basic approach described by Dumesic and his colleagues is to hydrogenate levulinic acid—a product of biomass hydrolysis—to GVL (which is also used as a substitute for blending of ethanol in gasoline).

Install photovoltaic capacity to generate “green” hydrogen: Install multiple PV modules at its Central Maintenance Facility in Hayward. Combined with AC Transit’s already-installed solar capacity, this solar installation will produce the renewable electricity equivalent to what will be required to produce 180 kg/day of green hydrogen.

It offers the solution to several significant transitions we need: moving society from burning fossil fuels to substituting renewable resource fuels such as solar, wind and biofuels; and from using fossil materials as fuel to using them for other recyclable uses. How PHEV provides Smooth Transitions from fossil fuel to renewables.

GVL could also be useful as a “green” solvent or a building block for creating renewable polymers from sustainable materials. The traditional process for converting plant material to GVL requires catalysts made from precious metals and must be done at very high pressures of hydrogen gas, which makes the process cost-prohibitive.
