Sentences with phrase «generation liquid biofuels»

Most studies project that second - generation liquid biofuels from perennial crops and woody and agricultural residues could dramatically reduce life cycle greenhouse gas emissions relative to petroleum fuels.

Such second - generation liquid biofuels produced from woody biomass rather than from food crops would also reduce competition with food production.

At present, bioethanol is the second - generation liquid biofuel closest to commercialization.

«I am struck by the lack of fundamental breakthroughs required for an abundant, clean energy future, whether in electricity generation from wind, coal (IGCC), ocean thermal, ocean wave, ocean tide, solar, nuclear, or liquids from coal - to - liquids, gas - to - liquids, biofuels, bio-engineered fuels, and so on.»

In addition to mineral oil - based diesel fuels, 1st generation biofuels (FAME, RME, hydrogenated vegetable oil) as well as gas - to - liquid are increasingly used.

In addition, technological developments are expected to increase future interest in more efficient «second generation» liquid biofuels, which are not derived from food crops, but from plant materials such as agricultural residues, forestry residues, and wood from forest plantations.

3.2 «First generation» liquid biofuels include biodiesel and bioethanol and are derived from various food crops that vary by geographical location, for instance cereals, rapeseed and sugar cane.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration includes the following in U.S. primary energy production: coal production, waste coal supplied, and coal refuse recovery; crude oil and lease condensate production; natural gas plant liquids production; dry natural gas excluding supplemental gaseous fuels production; nuclear electricity net generation (converted to Btu using the nuclear plant heat rates); conventional hydroelectricity net generation (converted to Btu using the fossil - fuels plant heat rates); geothermal electricity net generation (converted to Btu using the fossil - fuels plant heat rates), and geothermal heat pump energy and geothermal direct use energy; solar thermal and photovoltaic electricity net generation (converted to Btu using the fossil - fuels plant heat rates), and solar thermal direct use energy; wind electricity net generation (converted to Btu using the fossil - fuels plant heat rates); wood and wood - derived fuels consumption; biomass waste consumption; and biofuels feedstock.

The project will be a joint affair between Qatar Airways, Qatar Science & Technology Park, and Qatar Petroleum: Based on feasibility studies on biomass - to - liquid jet fuel (think: second - generation biofuels) done by Seattle's Verno Systems, the trio have established the Qatar Advanced Biofuel Platform which will be active in the following areas developing: 1) an engineering and implementation plan for «economically viable and sustainable biofuel production»; 2) a biofuel investment strategy; 3) an advanced technology development program; 4) ongoing market and strategic anBiofuel Platform which will be active in the following areas developing: 1) an engineering and implementation plan for «economically viable and sustainable biofuel production»; 2) a biofuel investment strategy; 3) an advanced technology development program; 4) ongoing market and strategic anbiofuel production»; 2) a biofuel investment strategy; 3) an advanced technology development program; 4) ongoing market and strategic anbiofuel investment strategy; 3) an advanced technology development program; 4) ongoing market and strategic analysis.
