Renewable Diesel Fuel
Renewable Diesel Fuel Robert McCormick and Teresa Alleman July 18, 2016 NREL is a national laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, operated by the Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC. Renewable Diesel Fuel Nomenclature • Renewable diesel goes by many names: o Generic names – Hydrogenated esters and fatty acids (HEFA) diesel – Hydrogenation derived renewable diesel (HDRD) – Green diesel (colloquialism) o Company trademark names – Green Diesel™ (Honeywell/UOP) – NExBTL® (Neste) – SoladieselRD® (Solazyme) – Biofene® (Amyris) – HPR Diesel (Propel branded product) – REG-9000™/RHD • Not the same as biodiesel, may be improperly called second generation biodiesel, paraffinic biodiesel – but it is incorrect and misleading to refer to it as biodiesel 2 RD is a Very Broad Term • Renewable diesel (RD) is essentially any diesel fuel produced from a renewable feedstock that is predominantly hydrocarbon (not oxygenates) and meets the requirements for use in a diesel engine • Today almost all renewable diesel is produced from vegetable oil, animal fat, waste cooking oil, and algal oil o Paraffin/isoparaffin mixture, distribution of chain lengths • One producer ferments sugar to produce a hydrocarbon (Amyris – more economical to sell this hydrocarbon into other markets) o Single molecule isoparaffin product 3 RD and Biodiesel • Biodiesel is solely produced through esterification of fats/oils • RD can be produced through multiple processes o Hydrogenation (hydrotreating) of fats/oils/esters o Fermentation -
Building a Sustainable Future Together: Malaysian Palm Oil and European Consumption Frank Vogelgesang, Uttaya Kumar & Kalyana Sundram
Journal of Oil Palm, Environment & Health An official publication of the Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC) EDITORIAL Open Access Journal of Oil Palm, Environment & Health 2018, 9:01-49 doi:10.5366/jope.2018.01 Building a Sustainable Future Together: Malaysian Palm Oil and European Consumption Frank Vogelgesang, Uttaya Kumar & Kalyana Sundram SUMMARY OF THE KEY POSITION explains in detail which those are. By way of STATEMENTS summary: This paper is born out of the desire to put into First, as a newly industrialized country we perspective the resolution on “Palm oil and stress the importance of rural and economic the Deforestation of Rain Forests” the development enshrined in the sustainable European Parliament (EP) passed by an development goals (SDGs) of United Nations. overwhelming majority in April 2017 Palm oil is vital to the Malaysian economy. For (henceforth: “the Resolution”). a more detailed discussion of this, turn to Section 2.3. What to make of the Resolution? Secondly, we do not accept some of the It calls for EU policy measures to combat fundamental premises on which the Resolution deforestation in the tropics as well as the rests. They contain several key errors, mainly associated effects on climate change and for two reasons: biodiversity. 1) The parliamentary committees that drafted the Resolution in the process The two main recommendations contained in misquoted or misinterpreted parts of the Resolution are the phasing out of palm oil the research they drew upon as feedstock for biodiesel and to switch to 2) Some of the original research itself is 100% certified sustainable palm oil, both by flawed (see Section 4.2 and 4.3). -

From Seed to Supersonic

This time, for the first time, the jet was powered with a 50/50 blend of biofuel and petroleum-based fuel. The flight, one of a series of test flights held in early 2010 at the Navalapril, Air Station (NAS) in Patuxent River, MD (Pax River), marked the first time ever that an aircraft has flown faster than the speed of sound on a fuel mix that is 50 percent biomassed derived.

Toward Sustainable Aviation Fuels: a Primer and State of the Industry 7 Using Fuel Derived Entirely from Biological Materials
toward sustainable aviation fuels a primer and state of the industry www.climatesolutions.org october 2015 Climate Solutions is a Northwest-based clean energy economy nonprofit whose mission is to accelerate practical and profitable solutions to global warming by galvanizing leadership, growing investment, and bridging divides. We pioneered the vision and cultivated the political leadership in the Northwest for the proposi- tion that clean energy and broadly shared economic prosperity can go hand-in-hand. For 17 years, we have led successful initiatives to deliver climate and clean energy policies, models, and partnerships that accelerate the transition from fossil fuels to a clean energy economy. The Strategic Innovation Team at Climate Solutions focuses on de- veloping solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and remove carbon pollution from the atmosphere at the scale required to ad- dress the climate crisis. We identify the pathways to a low carbon future and create replicable models for emission reduction and carbon storage that provide economic as well as climate benefits, through the following programs: . Pathways Project identifies, analyzes, and publicizes the pathways to transition from a fossil fuel-based economy to a low carbon, clean energy economy, focusing on the technically and economically viable solutions that will move the states of Washington and Oregon off of oil and coal. New Energy Cities partners with small- and medium-sized communities to achieve significant greenhouse gas reductions by 2030. We are catalyz- ing replicable models of city-led clean energy innovation by working with communities to set and attain quantifiable carbon reduction targets for buildings, transportation, and energy supply. -
Summary of Sustainable Alternative Aviation Fuels Activity
Summary of Sustainable Alternative Aviation Fuels Activity 11 February 2011 Region Country Comments Date Company/ Feedstock/ Summary Links Organization Process Asia & Australia, 10/02/11 Solazyme, Microbial Solazyme, Inc. announced that it has begun a Solazyme and Qantas Launch Pacific U.S. Qantas biomass collaboration with Qantas to pursue the potential Collaboration Working Toward processing for commercial production of Solazyme's microbial Commercial Production of derived aviation fuel, Solajet™, in Australia. This Solajet™ represents the first collaboration in the Asia-Pacific region to explore the use of Solajet™ in commercial aviation. The companies intend to use Solazyme's technology platform to help provide the Australian market with renewable aviation biofuel. There is currently a six billion liter a year demand for aviation fuel in Australia. Through this collaboration, both Qantas and Solazyme are striving to help meet this demand.

Air Force OKs biofuel jet fuel The certification marks the Air Force's first mix in aircraft platform to be fully certified using an HRJ blend. The blended fuel evaluation combined additional analyses from Boeing, Parker ESD and Pratt & Whitney. The evaluation found no significant differences in engine stability, thrust response or engine steady-state performance. This certification clears the C-17 to fly on a volumetric blend of up to 50 percent HRJ fuel with 50 percent JP-8, as well as a blend of 25 percent HRJ, 25 percent synthetic paraffinic kerosene fuel, and 50 percent JP-8.
