- Company Profile:
Chemical process that transforms raw vegetable oil into biodiesel by separating out glycerin, which is used in soaps and other products
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
The ability of a liquid to flow. The higher the viscosity, the slower the liquid flows.
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Grease from the nearest fryer which is filtered ('cuz chunks of potatoes and fish don't so much lube the chambers) and used in modified diesel engines, or converted to biodiesel through the process of transesterification and used in any ol' diesel car.
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Colorless volatile liquid created through the fermentation of sugars or starches
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Petroleum-based chemical compounds blended with gasoline to improve octane – principally benzene, toluene, and xylene
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Sugar cane waste
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Alcohol containing four carbon atoms per molecule, produced from the same feedstocks as ethanol, but with a modified fermentation and distillation process. Less water-soluble than ethanol, biobutanol has a higher energy density and can be transported by pipeline more easily
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Fiber contained in leaves, stems, and stalks of plants and trees. It is the most abundant organic compound on earth
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Measure of diesel’s combustion quality
Industry:Biotechnology; Energy
Byproduct of ethanol production that can be used to feed livestock; alternatively, distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS)
