To date, the best performing ILs are derived from nonrenewable sources such as petroleum or natural gas. More than a billion tons of biomass are produced annually in the United States alone and fuels from this biomass could be renewable substitutes for gasoline, diesel and jet fuel on a gallon-for-gallon basis. —Socha et al.

The first hydrogen TTO is focused on durable, high activity electrocatalyst with low platinum content and low cost for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell applications. Conventional polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell technology requires high content of platinum electrocatalyst, which raises manufacturing costs.

These fermentation processes create carbon as a byproduct, with some processes wasting more than 1/3 of this carbon as CO 2 emissions. The LT team will develop a gas fermentation process that leverages affordable, renewable hydrogen to capture and fix CO 2 directly into valuable fuels and chemicals.
