$1 a Gallon Ethanol Getting Closer-Plasma Power!
Coskata’s gasification process uses a plasma “torch” to gasify biomass to syngas. The syngas is then converted to ethanol using proprietary micro-organisms.
Coskata leverages proprietary microorganisms and efficient bioreactor designs in a three-step conversion process that can turn virtually any carbon-based feedstock into ethanol, from anywhere in the world. The [...]

Belgium’s biofuels & cogen plants:
Cows are the answer
Aidan Turnbull reports on a recent visit to Electrawinds Biomass Mouscron, one of Belgium’s most advanced cogeneration plants based on biofuels. such as biomass and solar energy.
It’s incredible to think that tallow from rendered-down dead cows could be one of the major sustainable fuel sources behind 18MW of [...]

Heating the Northeast with Renewable Biomass
Roughly 30% of the energy used in the U.S. is for heating and cooling, and a large proportion of the energy used for heat comes from burning oil. While using renewables to generate electricity and solve transportation issues (the other 70% of the equation) receives the lion’s share of attention [...]
