Should the lab and pilot work prove successful and scalable, they will place a demo plant in Malaysia, Burton said. Lipids, in turn, are a proven pathway to jet, diesel and gasoline. Part of the challenge is locating sufficient quantities of hydrogen to enable large scale use of the CO 2 in waste gases.

Global Bioenergies has successfully converted renewable resources first into gaseous isobutene via fermentation, which was then subsequently catalytically oligomerized into a mix of fuel-range liquid hydrocarbons, including iso-octane. Isocetane is a heavier fuel that can be used as an additive for diesel engines. Earlier post.).

A demo flight with the new fuel is planned in 12-18 months, with commercialization targeted for 2014. These hydrocarbons are subsequently separated into biological gasoline, kerosene and diesel by rectification. Virgin Atlantic will be the first airline to use this fuel and will work with LanzaTech, Boeing and Swedish.

A BMW owner, he is a possible future Polestar buyer, which made this a demo ride and reinforced my positive impressions. These should diminish as more and more of the grid uses power from renewable sources, such as solar and wind, and as the manufacturers themselves use green energy—some, including GM, already do. kilowatt-hours).
