May. 14, 2012 – ARA announced today that Chevron Lummus Global (CLG), a 50-50 joint venture between Chevron Products Company and Lummus Technology, has joined ARA’s ReadiJet Alternative Fuel Initiative to develop drop-in biofuels. The joint development effort combines ARA’s CH PROCESS technology with Chevron Lummus Global’s ISOCONVERSION process technology to create drop-in biofuels that will be ready to use in jet and diesel engines, eliminating the need for blending with petroleum.
“The integrated ARA/CLG process provides a pathway for fulfilling the military and civilian markets’ requirements for alternative fuels at parity with petroleum while spurring opportunities for America’s farmers without subsidies,” said Rob Sues, ARA’s President and CEO.

This narrows their testing field from the original 10 fuels that underwent lab testing in the summer of 2011 as part of the Federal Aviation Administration's Continuous Lower Energy, Emissions, and Noise or CLEEN program. Small engine testing will begin in the first quarter of 2012.
