FUEL 122

High Enthalpy BioFuel (HEBF) technology has been developed to meet the demand for advanced renewable fuels. As with other known biofuels, natural oleaginous resources remain the basic feedstock. HEBF are low viscosity liquids, whose enthalpy levels are much superior to conventional biofuels like fatty acid methyl ester (FAME)-type biodiesel. As in the case of FAME, HEBF contains practically zero sulfur, causing none of the major pollution problem associated with commercial diesel. The molecular composition of HEBF involves aliphatic nitriles, exhibiting excellent cetane values and enthalpy levels very close to those of petroleum fuels. HEBF technology primarily includes fuels associated with diesel, plus fractions, which according to their boiling range, correspond to naphtha components in the lower scale, and (bio)bunker in the upper scale.
