DOE awards LanzaTech $4M for low-carbon jet & diesel demo plant; 3M gpy; Audi evaluating fuel properties

Green Car Congress

The LanzaTech facility will recycle industrial waste gases from steel manufacturing to produce a low cost ethanol intermediate: “Lanzanol.” Both Lanzanol and cellulosic ethanol will then be converted to jet fuel via the Alcohol-to-Jet" (ATJ) process developed by LanzaTech and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL).

US researchers demo separation-free, IL-based process for conversion of biomass to advanced biofuel

Green Car Congress

Researchers from three US national labs (Berkeley, Pacific Northwest and Sandia) has demonstrated a separation-free, ionic-liquid (IL)-based process to convert biomass to an advanced biofuel (the sesquiterpene bisabolene). —Sundstrom et al.

Pi Innovo and GaN Systems collaborate to offer electronics design services for auxiliary systems for multi-voltage, hybrid and electric vehicles

Green Car Congress

A typical silicon-based converter will be no more than 95% efficient, Pi Innovo says, therefore having at least a 5% loss. Moreover, silicon efficiency of 95% is only achieved at optimum full load and can drop to as low as 70% at lower, more common driving loads. The GaN Demo PCB is capable of driving motors up to 1.5

Previously, land between airports had been represented by patches of color—green for forests, gray for urban, blue for water. Scot Bayless, the studio manager overseeing the team, says an early demo left Bill Gates stunned. Microsoft worried that some consumers might view it as a low-cost PC alternative. The Blackshark.ai
