by Jim Lane (Biofuels Digest) … A new project is focused on optimizing this new TRIFTS technology at a relevant engineering scale capable of utilizing both the CO2 and CH4 portions of biogas and incorporating them into the hydrocarbon backbone of the final product of the process (renewable drop-in diesel). This project focuses on rigorously testing our TRIFTS technology at the engineering scale to convert a diverse range of biogas feedstocks derived from MSW, wastewater, animal waste, food waste, and crop residues into high quality renewable, drop-in diesel fuel.

So, the challenge of different compositions and impurities is at the heart of this. Also, the catalytic parameters, process dynamics, system performance, process LCA, and fuel product quality will all be monitored and studied over sufficiently long term periods (over 500 hours per site) in order to optimize efficiency, productivity, and economics of the TRIFTS process and incorporate into the scale up of TRIFTS plant designs.
