Battelle evaluating pilot-scale mobile catalytic pyrolysis unit to convert biomass to bio-oil

Green Car Congress

Conversion of the bio-oil to an advanced biofuel is a key element of Battelle’s ( earlier post )—and many others’—research. Testing of the bio-based gasoline alternative produced by Battelle suggests that it can be blended with existing gasoline and can help fuel producers meet their renewable fuel requirements.
