Advanced Biofuels and Bioproducts

Critical biofuel filtration technology for sustainable transportation fuels

With global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transport growing faster than any other sector, the use of advanced biofuels is one promising alternative to reducing our dependence on petroleum-based fuels and reducing climate change. The production of advanced biofuels is not without its challenges. Variation in the feedstock sources as well as feedstock degradation results in contamination issues from the type and size of impurities. To protect downstream equipment, preserve catalyst life, and to ensure the final product meets specifications, filtration technology selection is a critical component.

Another critical challenge in our modern world is in dealing with increasing amounts of organic waste produced through animal, industrial and food sources. Processing organic waste to create biogas offers an alternative to natural gas for use in transportation fuels, heating, and power generation. This helps reduce waste at landfill and mitigate the methane emissions that would have otherwise escaped, diminishing its climate impact.
