  1. September 2012 Technology for the production of fully synthetic aviation fuels, diesel and gasoline Professor Angelica Hull Swedish Biofuels AB

  2. Swedish Biofuels technology • New pathway based on well establish industrial processes through an alcohol intermediate: C2-C5 as single alcohol or multicomponent mixture • High quality products • Technology proven at pilot scale • Wide range of non food feedstock • Fuel types • Gasoline • Diesel • Fully synthetic aviation fuel, 100 % replacement - under ASTM certification

  12. Swedish Biofuels Pilot Plant @ Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm • In operation: 15 months at full capacity • Operating hours: 6600 h/y • Biological fuel capacity: 10 t/y (3300 USG/y) • Jet 4.8 t/y • Gasoline 3.5 t/y • Diesel 1.7 t/y • Feedstock: C2-C5 alcohols as single alcohol or multicomponent mixture • Quality: commercial fuel specification • Reproducibility: confirmed 33

  13. List of fuel samples for following test result slides Tests performed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base research laboratories (AFRL). Production of the fuel samples was been funded by DARPA under contract W911NF-08-C-0001. Data has been approved for public release by DARPA. Test data in this presentation forms part of the data submitted to ASTM Committee by Swedish Biofuels AB.
