With state-of-the-art biofuels into the Alte Oper

摘要

On 19 January 2008, the Innovation Award of German Industry will be presented in the Alte Oper concert hall in Frankfurt. Nominations include the bioliqR process developed at the Karlsruhe research center: in a multi-step process, ultra-pure synthesis fuels and high-grade base products for the chemical industry are generated from straw and other agricultural and forest residues. The cooperation partner Lurgi GmbH supplied the engineering and built the plant for the first process step. The pilot plant that is to demonstrate the complete process from the clod to the petrol pump is currently under construction at the Karlsruhe research center with financial support from the Federal Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection.
