Catalytic production of long-chain hydrocarbons suitable for aviation turbine fuel from biomass-derived levulinic acid and furfural

Lungang Chen et al.

Summary: A method for converting biomass-derived furfural and levulinic acid into long-chain hydrocarbon fuels was developed. A C20 oxygenate with 95% mol yield was synthesized through condensation-polymerization reactions catalyzed by NaOH. Various techniques were used to verify the chemical structure of the C20 oxygenate. The condensation mixture was then subjected to hydrodeoxygenation reaction using a catalytic system of Pd/C and H3PO4 in aqueous phase, resulting in a 57.1% weight yield of liquid fuel with main products of C12, C14, and C18 hydrocarbons. The carbon and hydrogen mass percent in the fuel were significantly improved to 95.91%, and the high heat value increased to 47.04 MJ/kg.

Gasification process of palm kernel shell to fuel gas: Pilot-scale experiment and life cycle analysis

Sunu Herwi Pranolo et al.

Summary: This research presents a palm kernel shell gasification system for producing carbon-neutral fuel gas. The fuel gas can be utilized for heat or electricity generation. An assessment of environmental impacts reveals that the feedstock contributes most to global warming and eutrophication potential, while electricity dominates the acidification potential. The study recommends operating the system at a lower equivalent ratio to reduce environmental impacts.

Process design, modeling and life cycle analysis of energy consumption and GHG emission for jet fuel production from bioethanol in China

Xiao Wang et al.

Summary: China's increasing bioethanol production capacity makes the conversion of ethanol-to-jet fuel (ETJ) promising. This study used process simulation to model two novel ETJ processes combining corn cob gasification, syngas-to-ethanol, and ethanol-to-jet fuel. Life cycle assessment (LCA) was performed to evaluate energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions of ETJs in China. The results showed that the ETJ pathway with corn cob gasification plus fermentation had the lowest energy consumption and GHG emissions, with 370.05 KJ/MJ jet fuel and 31.66 gCO2eq/MJ jet fuel, respectively. Given the scarcity of life cycle assessments for ETJs in China, this study can assist policymakers in determining the path for China's sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) development.

Life cycle assessment of the biofuel production from lignocellulosic biomass in a hydrothermal liquefaction - aqueous phase reforming integrated biorefinery

Giulia Zoppi et al.

Summary: Biofuels are considered as a strategy for decarbonizing the transport sector. In this study, the environmental impacts of a biorefinery integrating hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) and aqueous phase reforming (APR) were assessed using the LCA methodology for the first time. Corn stover and a lignin-rich stream were evaluated as potential feedstocks. The results showed that HTL-APR technology can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 37% compared to fossil diesel, further reduced to 80% when using green energy.

Solid waste biomass as a potential feedstock for producing sustainable aviation fuel: A systematic review

Elissavet Emmanouilidou et al.

Summary: The aviation industry contributes 2% of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions and sustainable aviation fuels are essential for reducing these emissions. This study investigates the potential of producing sustainable aviation fuel from waste materials using current conversion technologies. The results suggest that catalytic hydro-processing of waste lipid feedstocks is the most commonly used method for bio-jet fuel production. Gasification combined with Fischer-Tropsch and alcohol-to-jet processes show promise for sustainable aviation fuel production. However, further research and development are needed before these technologies can be commercialized.

Summary: This study conducted a comprehensive comparison between the hydrogenation upgrading process and the supercritical ethanol upgrading process for liquid biofuel based on fast pyrolysis of cornstalk, using techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) from the perspectives of economic and environment. The TEA results showed that the minimum fuel selling prices (MFSP) of FP-HU and FP-SU were 0.0417 $/MJ and 0.0383 $/MJ. The LCA results showed that the ADP, COD, and GWP values of FP-HU were lower compared with FP-SU. Compared to conventional diesel, the ADP, GWP, and RI of FP-HU and FP-SU decreased significantly.

Evaluating the environmental impacts of the multi-feedstock biodiesel production process in Indonesia using life cycle assessment (LCA)

Yoyon Wahyono et al.

Summary: The environmental impact of multi-feedstock biodiesel production is greater during the plantation stage compared to palm oil biodiesel production. This is mainly due to the use of fertilisers in agriculture. Cultivating multiple crops is more detrimental to the environment than cultivating only oil palm, as it requires more fertilisers. Therefore, the use of soybean, canola, and sunflower to produce multi-feedstock biodiesel is not recommended.

Energy and exergy analysis of bio-jet fuel production from lignocellulosic biomass via aqueous conversion

Jingwen Hao et al.

Summary: The study proposed an aqueous conversion process utilizing part of lignin to generate hydrogen, which significantly increased energy and exergy efficiencies compared to the traditional process of burning all lignin as fuel. Additionally, improving the recovery rate of methanol and reducing the consumption of acid and base chemicals can enhance the cumulative exergy efficiency and renewability of bio-jet fuel production. Sensitivity analyses showed that the conversion efficiency of platform chemicals to bio-jet fuel and the consumption of stripping steam have a significant impact on energy and exergy efficiencies.
