Emissions from ethanol transport in the CMU study applied to ethanol life cycle emissions from other studies. A new study by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) concludes that the emissions associated with the transport of ethanol could negate its potential economic and environmental benefits compared to gasoline.

Qatar Airways, Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP) and Qatar Petroleum (QP) will jointly carry out engineering, economic analysis and move into the development of renewable biojet fuel that will also look into ways for production and supply, with the support of Airbus. All of these are known as xTL fuels. Earlier post.)

Argonne’s GREET model (Greenhouse gas Regulated Emissions and Energy Use in Transportation) is, for example, an inventory tool. Partly for these reasons, many LCA studies truncate impact assessment at the inventory characterization step, rather than completing normalization and weighting steps. total US emissions).

Both proposals have the additional advantage of generating funds which may be used to increase investments in low CI fuel technologies. Additionally, neither mechanism would compromise the greenhouse gas reduction goals set by Assembly Bill 32. —Lade and Lin.

In a vote on draft legislation , the European Parliament has backed a cap on the use of biofuels produced from starch-rich crops, sugars, oil and other crops grown on land and a speedy switchover to new biofuels from alternative sources such as seaweed and waste. of energy consumption in transport by 2020, MEPs said.

An evaluation of the implementation possibilities of power-to-fuel (PTF) technologies by a team from Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH in Germany recommends the PTF products DME, OME 3-5 and n-alkanes as suitable diesel alternatives for the transportation sector. A paper on the Jülich study is published in the journal Fuel.

The German government is co-funding the three-year project that will test the first cars to run on dimethyl ether (DME) ( earlier post ), commonly used as a non-toxic propellant in aerosol spray gas, and monooxymethylene ether (OME1). Like liquefied petroleum gas, DME must be stored in a slightly pressurized tank.

It is now widely accepted that anthropogenic CO 2 , due to its role as a greenhouse gas, is the major contributor to climate change. While fossil fuels will be used for as long as they can be easily and economically produced, it should also be clear that their amounts are finite and that they are increasingly depleted.
