DOE researchers investigate economic and environmental impacts of converting wet waste to renewable diesel

Green Car Congress

Meanwhile, wet waste feedstocks, such as animal manure and fats, oils, and greases (FOG), represent another important category of resources that could be utilized to produce MCCI bioblendstocks due to its abundant availability. Among their findings: The estimated minimum fuel selling prices were $1.22/gasoline Skaggs et al. GLE and $0.9/GLE.

Study finds renewable natural gas could meet ~85% of current natural gas use in transport in California by 2020s; much higher volumes possible with right policies

Green Car Congress

The main barriers to large-scale RNG use are the state’s high cost of pipeline interconnect and the cost of upgrading to pipeline standards. RNG is produced from organic materials or waste streams; the lifecycle emissions for RNG have the potential to be lower than the emissions of fossil natural gas.
