Benefits of producing Next Generation Renewable Drop-in Fuels using our Biofuel ISOCONVERSION Process
Fuel Benefits
- Meets ASTM and MIL specs for petroleum fuels without blending with petroleum
- Provides energy equivalent to or better than petroleum fuels - both weight and volume basis
- 1.5% less specific fuel consumption compared to Jet A-1 during engine test
- Exhibits excellent combustion quality
- No sulfur, high hydrogen, clean-burning
- Greater than 50% reduction in airborne particles, including black carbon, compared to Jet A-1
- Exhibits excellent low-temperature properties
- Viscosity, freeze point, pour point, cloud point
- Exhibits excellent storage and thermal stability
Process Benefits
- Requires only filtered oil
- Does not require degumming, bleaching or deodorizing of feed stocks
- Can save $0.15 - $1.00 per gallon of feed stock compared to competing technologies which require extensive preprocessing
- Converts any renewable oil, lipid,triglyceride, or fatty acid feed stock
- Over 80% reduction in life cycle green house gases compared to petroleum fuels
- Small footprint results in low CAPEX - $1 per annual production gallon
- Traditional refining industry unit operations with comparable operating costs Eliminates hydrocracking and hydroisomerization operations
- Minimizes hydrogen, water, chemical, catalyst, and energy consumption
- Produces high yields of pure hydrocarbon fuels, with high-density aromatic and cycloparaffin compounds
