A research team at the University of Wisconsin–Madison has identified a new way to convert ammonia to nitrogen gas through a process that could be a step toward ammonia replacing carbon-based fuels. One of the drawbacks of ammonia synthesis is that the hydrogen we use to make ammonia comes from natural gas and fossil fuels. Brown, T.R.

Researchers at the University of Wisconsin, led by Dr. James Dumesic, have developed a process to convert aqueous solutions of ?-valerolactone Not requiring hydrogen or precious metal catalysts could contribute to a lower cost for a commercial-scale version of the process than some other renewable hydrocarbon fuel technologies.

The vapor pressure of this fluid is relatively low when compared with ethanol; thus the fluid, when mixed with gasoline, will result in lower VOC emissions in storage, since it serves as a “keeper”. Conversely to the effect on diesel fuel, the additive shifts the distillation curve of gasoline to higher temperatures. Earlier post.).

and Shell have successfully started production at the first demonstration plant converting plant sugars into gasoline and gasoline blend components, rather than ethanol. The partnership with Shell has focused on optimizing the process for the production of gasoline-like molecules. Virent Energy Systems, Inc. Earlier post.)

Researchers in China have generated gasoline fuel with a research octane number of 95.4 valerolactone (GVL)—the highest octane number reported for biomass-derived gasoline fuel—using an ionic liquid catalyst. The obtained gasoline was rich in trimethylpentane (isooctane), with the RON of 95.4. from biomass-derived ?-valerolactone
