Klean Initiates Ethanol Research Project | Gasification Technologies
Klean Industries is leading the next generation of biofuel innovation by launching an ethanol research project using advanced gasification technologies. This groundbreaking initiative aims to convert waste materials into renewable ethanol, providing a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. As industries transition toward decarbonization and circular economy models, Klean Industries is at the forefront of developing waste-to-energy solutions that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote energy independence.
Vancouver, Canada - Klean Industries Inc. is pleased to announce that it has initiated research into the possibility of using gases produced from its unique gasification and pyrolysis systems to make synthetic liquid biofuels.
Due to the rapidly increasing demand for fuels in North America, the first two liquid biofuels under investigation are ethanol and methanol. To begin with, the focus will be on catalytic conversion processes such as the Sabatier and Fischer-Tropsch processes. The Fischer-Tropsch catalytically converts synthetic gases, such as those produced from our systems, to liquid fuels.
Energy independence was at the forefront of the minds of North Americans during the 1970s when gas prices soared and lines formed at every gas station. Consumers responded with energy-saving practices and smaller cars…and then quickly forgotten. We forgot that using less oil is only one part of the solution. Ultimately, we need to be more energy-independent.
Twenty years later, prices are again soaring, and consumers are demanding answers. Well, this time, these new fuels offer an alternative. Ethanol, or E85, is a home-grown alternative fuel produced from crops and waste products. It is environmentally good for us – think of it…turning waste into fuel! It is economically sound for us – stabilizing commodity prices and increasing jobs. It is good for our transportation needs – with more than 750,000 flexible fuel vehicles on the market this year.
Ethanol has recently been touted as a replacement for gasoline. In the USA, ethanol-enriched gasoline, sold as E85, is used primarily in the Midwest states. Adding ethanol to gasoline oxygenates it, thus reducing the amount of carbon monoxide and unburned fuel in the exhaust gas, reducing smog.
Brazil, one of the first countries to convert to ethanol for transportation, is now completely free of oil imports. The USA imports 60% of its oil and is watching Brazil’s progress. The most recent US energy bill, signed into law last August, calls for more than doubling ethanol use by 2012. In preparation, the big three car manufacturers have begun selling “flex-fuel” vehicles capable of being powered by ethanol-enriched gasoline.
ABOUT KLEAN INDUSTRIES INC.
Klean Industries is a specialized international company using advanced “clean” technologies to develop projects that provide environmentally conscious solutions to energy and waste management challenges using unique low-carbon footprint technologies and solutions. The company is headquartered in Vancouver, Canada. It is committed to solving problems large and small in an economically meaningful and environmentally responsible manner, focusing on two significant waste streams: petroleum-based waste (specifically plastics and scrap tires) and organic waste.
Klean Industries utilizes worldwide patented technologies and proprietary methods in its solutions portfolio. Klean also holds the worldwide rights to manufacture and distribute many proprietary waste-treatment technologies, all of which are environmentally safe, low-cost, and commercially viable, which allow us to create a unique convergence between waste recycling and renewable energy. We are your technology integration specialists.
Klean Industries provides clients with innovative, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly solutions. We specialize in recycling, resource recovery, steam, and power generation facilities. Klean also researches, develops, and commercializes technologies for producing alternative clean fuels.
Our services include consulting, engineering, procurement, construction, start-up, and operator training for all our facilities and technology applications. Klean uses registered professional engineers in all disciplines; therefore, we can perform 100% of design engineering “in-house” or contract out some of our work to localized firms depending on the client and project. We are committed to meeting and exceeding our customers’ expectations regardless of the project’s size or location.
