Lifecycle study finds pennycress could make a greener bio-jet fuel

Green Car Congress

A common farm weed could make a jet fuel with fewer production-related environmental impacts than other biofuels, according to a new lifecycle study by researchers at The Ohio State University. Energy allocation method was used for the analysis. million l/yr (5 million gal/yr) HRJ. And it can be harvested before the soybean crops are planted.

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.
