Technology Brief |
The BioTfueL project is focused on developing an innovative process for converting biomass into high-quality biodiesel and bio-jet fuel. Gasification makes it possible to produce biofuels from lignocellulosic material, such as agricultural by-products, forest waste and energy crops. The process can also convert fossil feedstock mixed with biomass to account for seasonal variations in resource availability.
The biomass feedstock is torrefied and then converted into syngas in a gasifier. Once the syngas has been cleaned and conditioned, it is converted into a hydrocarbon mixture that can be used to produce fuel.
