Renewable natural gas (RNG) fuel—biomethane—is produced entirely from organic waste.
The US Department of Energy (DOE) has selected four research and development projects designed to bring next-generation biofuels on line faster and to drive down the cost of producing gasoline, diesel, and jet fuels from biomass. University of Oklahoma (up to $4 million).
liter V6 engine is available with a factory-installed, gaseous-fuel prep package that includes hardened valves, valve seats, and pistons and rings so it can operate on either natural gas or gasoline through separate fuel systems. The 2014 Ford F-150 with 3.7-liter When equipped with a bi-fuel CNG/LPG engine package, the 3.7-liter
and the City of Cushing, Oklahoma announced that Southern Rock Energy Partners, LLC (SREP) has selected Cushing as the site for its 250,000 BPD next-generation, full conversion crude refinery. The refinery complex will reduce and eliminate 95% of greenhouse gas emissions while producing approximately 91.25
CVR Energy will base a revamp of its Wynnewood, Oklahoma, refinery on Haldor Topsoe’s HydroFlex technology to produce approximately 100 million gallons of renewable diesel and more than 6 million gallons of renewable naphtha per year. Topsoe will deliver basic engineering, license, proprietary equipment and catalyst for HydroFlex.
Last week, governors of more than 20 states joined together to ask the auto industry for a specific kind of car: a mid-size sedan powered by natural gas, rather than gasoline.
horsepower Kawasaki FX801 V-Twin gasoline engine, converted to propane by Alliance Small Engines. Three of the city stops—in Fort Collins, CO, Salt Lake City, UT, and Seattle, WA—will be hosted by Alliance AutoGas member Blue Star Gas in conjunction with their local Clean City Coalitions. It is powered by a 25.5
To support the purchase and planned deployment of the 1,400 new CNG vehicles, UPS plans to build 15 compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling stations. Twelve of the CNG stations will be in new natural gas vehicle deployment areas, and three will replace existing CNG stations with more robust, higher capacity equipment. Oklahoma City, Okla.;
Transportation sector gasoline demand declines. Continued fuel economy improvement in vehicles using other alternative fuels, gasoline, and diesel, combined with growth in the use of hybrid technologies (including micro, mild, full, and plug-in hybrid vehicles), limit the use of electric vehicles over the projection. Click to enlarge.
The vehicles and infrastructure being funded include the use of natural and renewable gas, propane, ethanol, biodiesel, electricity, and hybrid technologies. New Jersey Clean Cities Coalition’s New Jersey Compressed Natural Gas Refuse Trucks, Shuttle Buses and Infrastructure. Total DOE award: $14,999,658. Total DOE award: $14,997,240.
The Coskata process can produce more than 100 gallons of ethanol per ton of dry, ash-free biomass material at a cost competitive with expected gasoline prices—around $1.00 times more energy positive compared to conventional gasoline, according to an evaluation by Dr. Michael Wang at Argonne National Laboratory. Earlier post.). “We
Advanced biofuels produced through this funding are expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50% compared to fossil fuels. Livingston, NJ) up to $1,200,000: to develop a Biomass-to-Gasoline (BTG) technology that represents a fundamental shift in process chemistry and overall approach to creating biofuels. Of the $24.4
The technology seeks to combine pyrolysis oil production, stabilization, and upgrading into one process, creating the potential to reduce the demand for imported oil and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by displacing fossil fuels with biofuels. Energy Efficient Capture of CO 2 from Coal Flue Gas. DOE grant: $3,111,693).
In addition to financial issues, such as where incentives are available and how much driving electric will save you compared to filling up with gasoline, the deciding factor for ranking the states was the density of available public charging. They used the same metrics to derive the 10 worst states. California. Rhode Island. Connecticut.
