Cool GTL for the Conversion of Biogas to Jet Fuel

Cool GTL is a new process under development for conversion of biogas from digestors or CO2 +H2 to high quality drop in jet fuel. Cool GTL is designed to be a streamlined simplified low cost process which can be cost effective for small scale biogas applications. Cool GTL has the advantage that it uses a high activity bi-reforming catalyst, in a streamlined electric reformer design, to make the synthesis gas for a high conversion slurry fischer Tropsch process followed by a trailing wax cracking reactor. In this way high quality jet fuel can be directly produced. Recent experimental test data will be presented showing product quality. The life cycle analysis LCA will also be presented as well.

Turning a liability into an asset: creating liquid transportation fuels from CO2, natural gas, or RNG

GTI will be discussing our Cool GTL process, a new low cost versatile integrated modular process which can convert CO2, methane, ethane, and biogas, to gasoline jet and diesel with no wax intermediate product. We have tested Cool GTL at small scale and are beginning tests at larger 2 gallon/day scale for biogas conversion ( with DOE funding). Our ultimate goal is to have several commercial deployments of Cool GTL in a variety of applications running in 5 years. Most exciting is the fact that Cool GTL can totally eliminate Global Warming and produce all the worlds transportation fuel by conversion of the excess CO2 currently in the air to liquid transportation fuels, leading to a modern revolution in the way transportation fuels are produced.
