Fischer Tropsch (Renew) Renewable Fuels for advanced Powertrains
01.01.2004 - 31.12.2007
Forschungsförderungsprojekt
This project aims to develop, assess and train on various production chains for motor wehicle fuels ligno-cullulosic biomass sources will be used as feedstock to produce synthesis gas from which various vehicle fuels can be derived: CH4, methanol/DME, ethanol (thermo-chemical and enzymatic pathway) and a novel biomass-to-liquid (BTL) fuel. The projekt will develop and evaluate the respective processing technologies with a view to producing cost effective premium fuels for current and future combustion engines from a wide bandwidth of feedstock. Within 4 vertical subprojects, alternative thermo-chemical gasification, enzymatic fuel production and fuel syynthesis processes will be considered, while 2 horizontal subprojects are directed towards technology assessment and training. Two pilot-produced fuels (DME and BTL) will be submitted to extensive motor-tests by 4 leading European car manufacturers within this project. Other fuels will be made available for tests in various other European R&D projects. It is envisaged that this project will lead to the introduction of favourably priced biomass-derived fuels for motor vehicles, from 2010 onwards. Apart from achieving scientific and technological results, RENEW has the vision to develop commonly agreed strategic recommendations, based on an understanding among relevant players in industry, agriculture and research concerning the technological and market potential of different bio-fuels and their production technologies. RENEW is novel and hugely importmant to Europe. It offers major Kyoto Protocal benefits, enhances the sustainability and securtiy of vehicle fuel supply, and has positive Regional socio-economic impacts. RENEW inholves 31 partner, including 7 SME, from 9 EU MS and AS countries. The consortium has the necessary "critical mass" to achieve its goals and develop the technology to commercial stage beyond the end of the project.
