Biorenewable Insights: Methanol to Gasoline (MTG) (2024 Program)

This report assesses the conversion technology of renewable methanol to gasoline in terms of their technical, economic, and carbon intensity aspects, aligning with efforts of transitioning to more sustainable fuel to achieve net zero emission by 2050. Key production pathways covered at the cost of production level include gasoline derived from three renewable methanol sources (ie. biomethanol, MSW-based methanol and e-methanol). This report also presents a comparative analysis of the overall carbon intensity, considering scope 1 and scope 2 emissions in these production pathways.

Oleochemicals (2024 Program)​

This techno-economic report offers a review of chemistry, properties, feedstock choices, business development considerations, technology, and development trends of oleochemicals, including fatty acid, glycerine, and methyl ester. The report provides process economics for fatty acid and methyl ester (and glycerine as byproduct) for several different global locations (United States, Western Europe, Malaysia and China) under a consistent first quarter 2024 price scenario. Multiple feedstocks that are common to these locations are evaluated, such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil, crude palm oil and tallow. The report also provides a carbon intensity analysis, and a historical cost analysis.

Key Pathways for Red, Purple, and Pink Hydrogen (2024 Program)

Red, purple, pink hydrogen provides key tangible, feasible, and viable pathways towards definitive global and regional decarbonization of supply/value chains with zero greenhouse gas emissions. Also, as part of an optimal energy mix, this includes, but not limited to, being an effective energy carrier for fuels, feedstocks, and production of downstream chemicals. In addition, providing enhanced reliability, resilience, and availability of baseload and peaking supply of electricity and hydrogen for wholesale and retail end-customers. Commercially advanced technologies via small modular reactors and proven processes via electrolysis and thermolysis are paving the way forward.

Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carriers (LOHC) (2024 Program)

The use of liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC) is an alternative to transporting hydrogen without the need for pipeline infrastructure or hydrogen liquefaction. Instead, organic materials are hydrogenated at the hydrogen production source, transported to their destination, and dehydrogenated to release the hydrogen for use. The bulk transportation of organic liquids is commonplace, relatively low cost, and well established, thus simplifying the movement of hydrogen via LOHC. With the growing demand for green hydrogen to support decarbonization efforts worldwide, LOHC is emerging as a practical means of transporting hydrogen from production sites to consumption sites. This report provides an overview of LOHC technologies. The report also includes a technology readiness level (TRL) summary of LOHC options, carbon intensity analysis, and discussion related to the cost of transporting hydrogen for various LOHC types. Comparisons with other hydrogen transportation options such as liquefied hydrogen and ammonia are also presented.
