Convert, Economy, Oil Prices and Transportation

Study suggests that decarbonizing US transport sector by converting waste CO2 to fuels would require economical air-capture of CO2

Green Car Congress

NOVEMBER 7, 2010

When that carbon is converted into a fuel, burned, and exhausted to the atmosphere, the overall cycle is roughly neutral. This raises the unusual possibility of the transportation sector becoming decarbonized before. CCTF will only employ direct CO 2 capture from air when the CO 2 emission price exceeds the cost of air capture.

The California LCFS calls for at least a 10% reduction from 2006 levels in the carbon intensity (measured in gCO 2 e/MJ) of California’s transportation fuels by 2020. By regulating the fuel pathway of transportation fuels—i.e., Earlier post.). The LCFS is an ineffective tool for reducing GHG emissions. NPRA President Charles T.

A crude oil price of US$100/bbl results in an approximate cost of €0.56/L Biomass is pyrolized to a pyrolysis oil. The pyrolysis oil is mixed with pyrolysis coke from the process to create a biocrude slurry for transport and subsequent gasification to syngas and subsequent catalytic conversion to chemicals and/or fuels.
