Key innovations
The innovation of this technology is that it uses biomass gasification to produce syngas and then directionally converts aviation fuel. The raw material has wide adaptability, and hydrogen is produced during the gasification process without the need for external hydrogen sources. The product is of high quality and significant carbon emission reduction.
Potential economic benefits
This technology uses agricultural and forestry waste to reduce raw material costs and eliminate investment in purchased hydrogen sources. The bio-aviation fuel it produces can significantly reduce carbon emissions and significantly reduce carbon taxes for airlines, thereby reducing operating costs and improving economic efficiency and market competitiveness.
Potential climate benefits
This technology prepares jet fuel through biomass gasification, which can reduce CO2 emissions by 1.35-2.65 tons per ton, which is much lower than that of fossil jet fuel. It uses agricultural and forestry waste as raw materials, avoids carbon emissions from waste decomposition and realizes biomass carbon recycling. The gasification process produces hydrogen itself, eliminating the carbon footprint of external hydrogen sources.

Solution details

 This technology uses biomass gasification technology to first convert biomass into syngas (CO+H2), and then directionally convert the syngas to prepare high-quality aviation fuel. Biomass gasification technology has wide adaptability to biomass types. Agricultural and forestry wastes such as straw, cotton straw, and wood chips can be used as raw materials for preparing aviation fuel with this technology. The process of converting biomass to jet fuel often requires hydrogenation to prepare hydrocarbon products. In this technology, biomass gasification is a hydrogen-producing process. Therefore, this technology has the characteristics of wide adaptability of raw materials, high product selectivity and quality, and no need for external hydrogen sources. This technology can produce one ton of jet fuel from 8-12 tons of biomass. During the entire production and use of aviation biofuel, the CO2 emissions are only 0.5 t/t~1.8 t/t, compared with 3.15 t/t of fossil jet fuel., carbon emission reduction of 1.35-2.65 t/t can be achieved, which can significantly reduce carbon taxes for airlines.
