(Renewable Energy Magazine) A team of scientists at West Palm Beach, Florida-based Alliance BioEnergy Plus Inc.’s subsidiary Ek Laboratories have developed a pathway to produce JP-8, an advanced military grade aviation biofuel.
…
The team is reportedly continuing to refine its cellulose to sugar process for dry distiller’s grain (DDG) and other various cellulose biomass.
JP-8 is like the commercial aviation fuel, Jet A-1, except with the addition of corrosion inhibitors and anti-icing additives in order to meet the stringent US and British defense standards.
Cellulosic biofuels using the CTS process can produce a jet fuel that is nearly 90 percent cleaner than conventional jet fuels and completely renewable. READ MORE
