 With
elevated pricing of traditional energy resources, renewable energy has
been in the spotlight recently and is a primary focus of local and federal
initiatives. While the environmental concerns are obvious, the economic
and national security issues are perhaps more pressing. The ability
to produce a domestic liquid energy product at or near price parity with
imported fuels has been the target of much research since the initial energy
crisis in the mid 1970s.
The team at Biocrude, Ltd. has developed an innovative technology which
converts a variety of high organic waste feedstock into a liquid energy
product with characteristics similar to low sulfur #6 Fuel Oil, a refined
fuel product with a >760,000 barrel per day demand in the U.S.A.
At the same time, the process reduces the volume of solid waste for ultimate
disposal by more than 85% and the post-process water is pathogen and colliform
free. With issues of questionable land application of solid wastes,
many landfills operating at or near capacity and wastewater runoff in sensitive
areas at the forefront, this is a secondary advantage of the process.
 The
biocrude produced by this new process qualifies as a wholly-renewable fuel,
thus meeting the requirements of Renewable Fuel Standards and Renewable
Energy Portfolio Standards in most jurisdictions. Additionally, a
simple secondary treatment of the biocrude creates motor fuels.
Unlike many other alternative or renewable fuel processes, the Biocrude,
Ltd. process has a high net energy balance and creates substantial volumes
of Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions.
