ECOLENE™ is the Immediate Green Solution Transitioning the Transportation Industry
Away from Fossil Fuels
ECOLENE™ is carbon-neutral – does not contribute to global warming
ECOLENE™ is produced using readily available and renewable biomass sources such as municipal sewage and compostable materials that otherwise go to landfill
Only fossil free electricity is used to manufacture ECOLENE™
-
the process uses solar, wind, and other sustainable sources of energy
-
tapping into otherwise idled capacity during periods of low demand is an ideal way to optimize the use of generation infrastructure
ECOLENE™ is a high hydrogen content fuel, making it a perfect source of hydrogen for fuel cell vehicles fitted with reformers
-
eliminates the safety concerns of hydrogen storage in vehicles
-
reduces the urgency to develop all-new hydrogen dispensing infrastructure to support the hydrogen transportation industry since existing filling stations and means of distribution will suffice
An additional step in the process easily converts ECOLENE™ to dimethyl ether (DME) – an excellent diesel fuel replacement without the negative environmental impact normally associated with diesel
Aside from being an alternative transportation fuel, ECOLENE™ may be used
-
as fuel to produce electricity in standalone generator
-
as a feedstock for chemicals, plastics, synthetics, paints, pharmaceuticals and other products
ECOLENE™ production is readily scalable – a proven process employing existing and well-tested technologies
-
anaerobic digestion of biomass to produce biogas
-
electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen and oxygen
-
partial oxidation
-
synthesis
ECOLENE™, as a liquid storage medium for hydrogen, can be safely transported in large volumes for the hydrogen industry
