Not exact matches

Then the company used custom - designed microbes to produce the new fuels by fermentation from a conventional ethanol feedstock.

Just been looking up the sources for commercial CO2 and here is a short exerpt from google: «The most common operations from which commercially - produced carbon dioxide is recovered are industrial plants which produce hydrogen or ammonia from natural gas, coal, or other hydrocarbon feedstock, and large - volume fermentation operations in which plant products are made into ethanol for human consumption, automotive fuel or industrial use.

Eligible feedstocks for gasoline substitutes are waste - based biomass and purpose grown crops with a carbon intensity substantially lower than current average California produced ethanol using Midwest corn feedstocks (80.7 gCO2 - eq / MJ).

Alternative feedstocks are needed to boost ethanol production, Saha said, and the 1.3 billion tons of biomass available in the U.S. would be sufficient to produce the total amount of oil the country imports each year.

The use of ethanol produced from corn in the U.S. and sugar cane in Brazil has given birth to the commercialization of an alternative fuel that is coming to show substantial promise, particularly as new feedstocks are developed.

Under the agreement, Cooper Marine & Timberlands («CMT») will supply BlueFire's Fulton, Mississippi project with all of the feedstock required to produce approximately 19 - million gallons of ethanol per year from locally sourced cellulosic materials such as wood chips, forest residual chips, pre-commercial thinnings and urban wood waste such as construction waste, storm debris, land clearing; or manufactured wood waste from furniture manufacturing.

The Fulton, Miss. project will allow BlueFire to use green and wood wastes available in the region as feedstock for the ethanol plant, which is designed to produce approximately 19 - million gallons of ethanol per year.

The United States produces mainly biodiesel and ethanol fuel, which uses corn as the main feedstock.

(Sec. 1514) Directs the EPA Administrator to: (1) establish an Advanced Biofuel Technologies Program to demonstrate advanced technologies for the production of alternative transportation fuels; (2) give priority to projects that enhance the geographical diversity of alternative fuels production and utilize feedstocks that represent 10 % or less of domestic ethanol or biodiesel fuel production during the previous fiscal year; and (3) fund demonstration projects to develop conversion technologies for producing cellulosic biomass ethanol, and for coproducing value - added bioproducts (such as fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides) resulting from biodiesel fuel production.

Another plus is that ethanol produced from second - generation feedstock has high performance and compatibility with traditional combustion engines and current energy infrastructure, including refineries and pipelines.

So, more attention and resources are going into the producing of ethanol and other biofuel types from second - generation feedstocks, sometimes known as non-food crops.

In years where we have a bumper crop of corn, and produce more than we need for feed, the market to distilleries will provide built in price supports; the DDGS from the other ethanol feedstocks will provide some cushion to food production in years when the corn crop is bad.

Biofuels» Emissions Benefits Often Overstated Citing the study, Reuters reports that, «The OECD said that if Brazil's ethanol produced from sugar cane cuts greenhouse gas emissions by around 80 %, biofuels from other feedstocks in the United States, the EU or Canada tend to have a far lower environmental benefit.

Ethanol Biofuel Feedstocks Gain a New Candidate: Kudzu Kudzu Harvesting for the Production of Ethanol, Redux Ethanol: How the Fuel is Produced, Growing Corn and Other Feedstocks, and More

via: Chinaview.cn Ethanol Ethanol: How the Fuel is Produced, Growing Corn and Other Feedstocks, and More Ethanol Industry Still Dodging Blame for Role in Global Food Crisis Biofuels Not Enough to Offset Damage Caused by Deforestation

Instead of burning that carbon monoxide off as carbon dioxide, the carbon is instead captured via fermentation to alcohol, producing an ethanol feedstock.

Most ethanol produced in the United States is currently derived from corn, a relatively poor feedstock given its low yield and high fertilizer requirements which have been linked to water pollution, the expanded «dead zone» in the Gulf of Mexico, and significant greenhouse gas emissions.
