There are two listings for the butanol isomer n -butanol in the directory, from Chevron Oronite and Cobalt Technologies.). Earlier post.). —Gevo CEO Dr. Patrick Gruber.
The US Department of Energy (DOE) released the final report from its National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) for a technology validation project that collected data from more than 180 fuel cell electric vehicles over six years (early 2005 through September 2011). These vehicles made more than 500,000 trips and traveled 3.6
Lux charted the investment counts (rather than invested companies) of the seven most active oil majors in its database: Shell, BP, Total, Valero, Chevron, Petrobras and Reliance. It also partnered with Virent on biomass catalytic conversion to produce renewablegasoline, and Cellana (HR BioPetroleum) on algae biofuel.

Among the multiple applications for different processing pathways of corn or sorghum ethanol are four pathways from LytEn for hydrogen produced from biomethane; four pathways for renewablegasoline and diesel produced from tree residue from Ensyn; and one application for cellulosic ethanol using corn stover feedstock from POET.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently granted Ensyn Corporation ( earlier post ) Part 79 registration for its renewable diesel product, RFDiesel. FCC units are found in most refineries worldwide and are used to produce gasoline and diesel from vacuum gas oil (VGO). The RTP process is actually an analog to FCC.
an advanced fuels and renewable chemicals company, have entered into a multi-year agreement to source locally-grown grain sorghum. Aemetis owns and operates a 55 million gallon renewable fuels plant in California; and owns and operates a 50 million gallon renewable chemicals and advanced fuels production facility on the east coast of India.
Reflecting increased research interest in synthetic liquid fuels produced using renewable low-carbon electricity and CO 2 sources, e-fuels were added to the potential future fuel technologies that are evaluated. the cost is less than that of the gasoline ICEV.
Chevron Technology Ventures and the Institute for Energy Economics of Japan provided support for the study. “We Amy Myers Jaffe, one of the report authors The Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) mandates production targets for renewable fuels, mainly biodiesel and ethanol. per gallon (gal) on top of the gasoline retail price.
The study … used an inappropriate fuel sample methodology designed in part by a Chevron consultant. Nearly all US gasoline is produced by splash-blending 10% ethanol. However, these high boiling point components are typically aromatic compounds—the worst-polluting components of gasoline. —Letter to EPA.
Fortistar and Paloma Dairy have begun construction on a dairy digester renewable natural gas (RNG) facility, the Sunoma Renewable Biofuel Project. million gasoline gallon equivalents (GGE) of vehicle fuel annually for the Class 8 trucking sector—enough fuel to move 10 million miles of freight.

During the late innings of the ICE-age (as in the Internal Combustion Engine age) it has become clear that feeding gasoline and diesel to the next billion new cars is not going to be easy, or cheap. By contrast, at 25 miles per $3 gallon of gasoline, those miles cost 12 cents each. by Henry Hewitt for Oilprice.com. Source: [link].
Little would have been gained by attempting to expand the reach of gasoline to laptops or refrigerators, so we've long been subjected to a decades-long preemptive assault on electric cars. We need a focused effort at transportation electrification to work in parallel with the move toward renewable energy.
Toyota, the automaker arguably best positioned and most experienced in the ways of electric drive, has scarcely hidden its intention to go slow on plug-ins while touting small incremental mileage gains on the gasoline-only Prius and the green glitz of an optional solar roof. But their dreams haven’t yet been sunk. Such as the $1.1
liter 4-cylinder engine that puts out 235 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque (on premium gasoline), driving either the front or all-four wheels through a nine-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. This is one area where GM is an industry leader, and after the initial service plan expires, it is well worth renewing.
