NASA researchers have begun a series of flights using the agency's DC-8 flying laboratory to study the effects of alternate biofuel on engine performance, emissions and aircraft-generated contrails at altitude.
On the way to the production of environment-friendly fuels from biomass residue, the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie, or KIT for short, in cooperation with the technology partner Air Liquide Global E&C Solutions has realized another important milestone: the second process stage of the bioliq® pilot plant is ready – today, the complex high-pressure entrained flow gasifier bioliq® II was handed over for operation.
"Green" chemistry developed at Rice University is at the center of a new government effort to turn plant waste into fatty acids, and then into fuel.
Fat worms confirm that researchers from Michigan State University have successfully engineered a plant with oily leaves -- a feat that could enhance biofuel production as well as lead to improved animal feeds.
Piedmont Biofuels of Pittsboro, North Carolina has been certified under the internationally recognized Roundtable on Sustainable Biofuels (RSB) Program following a third-party assessment conducted by SCS Global Services (SCS).
Chromatin, Inc., a leading provider of innovative crop breeding technology, sorghum seed products and feedstocks, and Calgren Renewable Fuels, a leading ethanol producer located in Pixley, CA, announced today an alliance to develop a local supply chain for sorghum for the production of fuel ethanol and distiller’s grains.
ElectraTherm, a leader in small-scale, waste heat to power generation, installed a Green Machine at a biogas plant in Straznice, Czech Republic. ElectraTherm, distributor GB Consulting and biogas plant constructor EnviTec commissioned an ElectraTherm Green Machine to generate additional power and increase energy efficiency on site, and the machine has accrued more than 2,800 hours with greater than 97% availability.
VIASPACE Inc. today announced that it has entered into a contract with AGRICORP of Managua, Nicaragua and is growing Giant King™ Grass on land owned by them. AGRICORP shareholders and VIASPACE plan to co-develop a biomass electric power plant fueled by Giant King Grass in Nicaragua.
In the search for renewable alternatives to gasoline, heavy alcohols such as isobutanol are promising candidates. Not only do they contain more energy than ethanol, but they are also more compatible with existing gasoline-based infrastructure. For isobutanol to become practical, however, scientists need a way to reliably produce huge quantities of it from renewable sources.
The Algae Biomass Organization, the trade association for the algae industry, announced today that the 7th Annual Algae Biomass Summit will take place September 30th through October 3rd at the Hilton Orlando in Orlando, Florida. ABO chose Orlando for the world's largest annual gathering of algae industry and research experts due to the presence of leading algae companies in the state, and for the potential of the southeast United States to become a center of commercial algae production.
