Projects such as bio-fuels and chemicals that have been invested in the southern United States by KiOR, Honeywell's UOP, and LS9, etc., will be put into operation one after another. US bio-chemical industry is ushering in a "busy summer."
At present, KiOR's first commercial-scale biofuel project has been basically completed in Columbus, Mississippi. The project began construction in the first quarter of 2011 and is currently commissioning equipment. It is expected that it will be put into production this summer. It is understood that the project uses yellow pine biomass as raw material for the production of gasoline and diesel. It can process an average of 500 tons of woody biomass per day and can produce more than 110,000 gallons per year (1 gallon = 3.785 liters) of biofuel.
It is also understood that by the end of 2012, KiOR's second plant in Mississippi will also be broken ground and will be able to process about 1,500 tons of raw materials per day.
“Our company selects Mississippi because it is rich in resources, and it has a lot of woody plants. In addition, the shipping facilities in the area are also more convenient.†The responsible person of the company chose the site for this type of project in Mississippi. Made the above explanation.
At the same time, UOP, a subsidiary of Honeywell, licensed its biomass refining and refining technology to Jade Biofuels. The company intends to build an 850,000 gallon per year biodiesel plant in Louisiana, and is expected to complete the financing by the end of this year. The project will be started soon.
According to reports, different from KiOR's technology, Honeywell's biodiesel uses natural fats and waste animal fat as raw materials and is a substitute for traditional diesel. The diesel produced by this technology has the same chemical properties as conventional diesel, and can be blended with ordinary diesel in any ratio, and the cetane number is as high as 80, and the performance is better, which will enable the diesel engine to work more efficiently. In addition, biofuels produced using these raw materials are more price-competitive than traditional fuels.
Jim Roxko, vice president of Honeywell UOP’s Renewable Energy and Chemicals Business Unit, stated: “We are very pleased to work with Jadeite to advance the production of biofuels. We are also proud to provide support for biodiesel production. The technological solutions that use alternative raw materials not only reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but also reduce the environmental impact of fuel production."
The wave of biofuels has also swept into Florida, and the commercial demonstration plant of LS9 will start production on June 12. It is understood that at the beginning of this year, FOF invested US$4.5 million in funding LS9 to build a demonstration plant in Okeechobee, Florida, to produce biodiesel and renewable chemicals. LS9 uses genetic modification technology to convert microorganisms into biodiesel and related chemicals. The reconstruction of the demonstration plant was completed in early May this year and will soon produce renewable fuels and chemicals. The annual production will be expanded from the earlier 50,000 liters to 135,000 liters.
Michael Rizteller, an analyst at Piper Jaffray, an American investment bank, said he is currently tracking the progress of 175 renewable fuels and chemicals projects. Although not all of these projects have been completed, the projects that have already been completed provide more space for the development of biofuels in the United States.
