Summary • Major technologies in the BTL process chain are commercially available today • Economics of BTL depend to a great extent on feedstock sourcing – Asia is predestined to utilize their rich biomass resources for BTL • A political framework, incentives and CDM are crucial for the deployment of BTL • Lurgi offer‘s the entire process chain for BTL
