Researchers from Caltech and UC San Diego have developed a family of ruthenium-based metathesis catalysts that have shown exceptional activity in the conversion of seed oils to linear-chain olefins. The ethanolysis of fatty acids derived from seed oils could provide a renewable source of LAOs. doi: 10.1002/anie.201410797.

A possible answer, though, might lie in oil wells. The California-based Hyperlight Energy will be piloting an installation where they plan to use existing oil wells as solar thermal wellsprings, with the stored energy being converted back to clean electricity when required. But we can still reduce the carbon [cost] of that oil.”

The SDTS took on approximately 18,000 gallons of ReadiDiesel in San Diego, California. The test period lasted approximately 12 hours along the Southern California Coast, while enroute from San Diego to Port Hueneme. ReadiDiesel is a 100% renewable biofuel. Earlier post.). The technology is proven in mature pilot systems.

million, San Diego, California): The proposed project aims to reduce energy, capital, and operational cost for algal fermentation processes. This will increase production of algal oils, which can be further refined into advanced biofuels. The following projects were selected: General Atomics (up to $2.0 Genomatica, Inc. (up
