UK funds 4 advanced biofuel projects

10th January 2020

The UK Department for Transport recently announced funding to support four advanced biofuel projects. Two of the projects are being funded under the government’s Future Fuels for Flight and Freight Competition. KEW Projects and Rika Biogas have been awarded a share of £6.5 million ($8.49 million) to build plants that aim to produce fuel for heavy goods vehicles. Rika Biogas aims to produce liquid biomethane, while Kew Projects aims to produce diesel substitute. The other two projects are being funded under the Advanced Biofuels Demonstration Competition. This includes Nova Pangaea Technologies, which will focus on the production of ethanol from wood waste. Source: Ethanol Producer Magazine 10/1/2020
