Accelerating Biofuels: Waste Gasification to Aviation and Transport Fuels in the UK and US/Canada

May 7, 2013

10 AM EDT, 9 AM CDT, 7 AM PDT, 3 PM BST, 2 PM GMT
Numerous trial projects have been successful in converting municipal solid waste into a useable, second generation biofuel. Commercialization is now in full swing with the UK, US and Canada leading the way in these projects.

British Airways has partnered with Solena Fuels to convert 500,000 tonnes of waste into 50,000 tonnes of aviation fuel per year in the UK. Across the Atlantic, Enerkem has three commercial scale waste to fuel plants in development in the US/Canada. The company’s Quebec demonstration plant has been producing cellulosic ethanol since Spring 2012.

This webcast aims to address the regulatory drivers of waste to fuels and address the practical and technical challenges of the process, as well as provide an update to projects in the US/Canada and Europe.
