The majority (62%) of the plantations were located on the island of Sumatra, and more than two-thirds (69%) of all industrial plantations were developed for oil palm cultivation, with the remainder mostly being Acacia plantations for paper pulp production. Earlier post.).
A new analysis by European environmental NGO Transport & Environment finds that Europe burns more than 17,000 tonnes of rapeseed and sunflower oil every day—the equivalent of 19 million 1-liter bottles. Supermarkets have had to ration vegetable oils and prices are soaring. In a time of scarcity we must prioritize food over fuel.
Neste Oil succeeded in achieving its target of increasing its use of waste and residue raw materials for refining into NExBTL renewable fuels by more than 400,000 tons in 2012: a total of 742,000 tons of these raw materials were used compared to 330,000 tons in 2011. Neste Oil used a total of 2.1 Neste Oil used a total of 2.1

The facility will be located within Wilmar’s new integrated manufacturing complex now under construction in Surabaya, Indonesia, and is expected to come online in 2011. Earlier post.). (ERS) Earlier post.). In December, ERS had received a $2.5 In December, ERS had received a $2.5 Earlier post.).
Another key issue with producing electricity from any renewable source is the intermittency of production. Hydrogen is utilized for a wide range of current industrial processes from ammonia, methanol and metals production and refinery of oil.
Elevance Renewable Sciences, Inc., a high-growth specialty chemicals company that creates novel specialty chemicals from natural oils, has entered a new collaboration with Genting Plantations Berhad through Genting Integrated Biorefinery Sdn Bhd (GIB), to be located in the Palm Oil Industrial Cluster (POIC) in Lahad Datu, Sabah, Malaysia.
The Biotechnology Industry Organization’s (BIO) World Congress on Industrial Biotechnology and Bioprocessing, held this week in Washington DC, highlighted a range of developing pathways for the production of renewable drop-in hydrocarbon fuels for transportation. Elevance Renewable Sciences, Inc. Earlier post.) Earlier post.)
This is primarily due to a significant surplus in the Class 2 market that occurred in 2022 and is expected to remain throughout 2023-2024, mainly owing to growing production of low-grade nickel in Indonesia. Nickel use remains very robust in the long run, driven by higher demand in the battery sector and renewable energy. Mt to 3.22
A new study on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with the conversion and degradation of peatland in palm oil plantations in Southeast Asia has determined that past studies have generally significantly underestimated emissions associated with palm oil grown on peatland. Southeast Asia.
an advanced fuels and renewable chemicals company based in California, has upgraded its 50 million gallon per year capacity biodiesel and refined glycerin production facility in Kakinada, India to produce high-quality distilled biodiesel. Aemetis, Inc.,
Monthly US biodiesel and renewable diesel imports. Total US imports of biomass-based diesel fuel—biodiesel and renewable diesel—reached 525 million gallons in 2013, compared to 61 million gallons in 2012, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA). Source: EIA. Click to enlarge. billion gallons to 1.28
US imports of biomass-based diesel, which include biodiesel and renewable diesel, totaled 14.1 Both fuels are produced from a variety of fats, oils, and grease, collectively referred to as FOGs. Indonesia did not export any biodiesel to the United States during 2017, possibly because of a preference for Argentine biodiesel.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a proposed rule setting the minimum amount of renewable fuels that must be supplied to the market in calendar year 2018 under the Renewable Fuel Standards (RFS) program. Renewable Fuel Volume Requirements. Renewable fuel (billion gallons). —EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt.
Hydrogen can help to tackle various critical energy challenges, including helping to store the variable output from renewables like solar PV and wind to better match demand. A wide variety of fuels are able to produce hydrogen, including renewables, nuclear, natural gas, coal and oil.
Global investment in renewable power and fuels (excluding large hydro-electric projects) was $270.2 Global investment in renewable power and fuels (excluding large hydro-electric projects) was $270.2 A key feature of the 2014 result was the rapid expansion of renewables into new markets in developing countries. in 2013.
Indonesia and Malaysia will more than double production of palm oil biodiesel, while Germany will remain the largest producer of biofuels in Europe, according to the analysis. First generation ethanol, palm oil biodiesel and rapeseed biodiesel from Europe continue to be the dominant biofuels produced. billion gallons) by 2015.
Sharp risers include Brazil (+ 6.2%), India (+ 4.4%), China (+ 4.2%) and Indonesia (+2.3%). in 2012 was primarily due to a decline in electricity and fuel demand from the basic materials industry, and aided by an increase in renewable energy and by energy efficiency improvements. The consumption of oil products increased by 1.7%
This geographically diverse group comprises Brazil and Mexico in the Americas; South Africa and Nigeria in Africa; Egypt and Turkey in North Africa/Mediterranean; Saudi Arabia and Iran in the Middle East; as well as Thailand and Indonesia in Asia. Renewables in total will account for about 15% of energy demand in 2040. —Outlook.
Subsequently, two geothermal energy projects led by researchers at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) were selected to receive funding from the US Department of Energy•s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy. Under a more aggressive growth forecast scenario, Pike says, total worldwide capacity could reach 25.1
Examining the role of shale gas, PwC’s report suggests that at current rates of consumption, replacing 10% of global oil and coal consumption with gas could deliver emissions savings of around 3% a year (1gt CO 2 e per annum). E7 economies—the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India and China), and Indonesia, Mexico and Turkey.
Only by reducing our dependence on fossil fuels and increasing energy production from renewable resources will we start to see improvements and begin to lessen the effects of climate change. Emerging from that natural variability is a consistent upward trend produced by burning coal, oil, and gas for transportation and industry.
In particular, Prentice seeks to shield Alberta’s emissions-intensive oil sands operations from the effects of emission reductions. Indonesia’s current rate of deforestation is estimated to be about 100,000 hectares (3,800 square miles) per year, down from a high of 250,000 hectares (9,500 square miles).
That’s the verdict of a new global analysis released by Hart Energy Publishing’s Global Biofuels Centre (GBC) which concludes that the US will see a growth of total biofuel use by more than 35 per cent; while Brazil will increase domestic supplies by 30 per cent and more than double production of palm oil biodiesel.
