Are we targeting Alternative Fuel for the Aviation Industry with that name ?
AltAir Fuels caught my eye, like Delta 3, RWE Refiner. Trying to connect the dots.
AltAir Fuels, is building an HRJ plant near an existing refinery in Washington state, Mr. Edwards said.
The Air Force is the Defense Department's largest consumer of jet fuel, but burns only the equivalent of a mid-sized airline. It's closely cooperating with industry as part of a consortium of commercial airlines and engine manufacturers called the Commercial Aviation Alternative Fuels Initiative. The expectation is that once biofuels are certified for use, production economies of scale will make them affordable, on par with petroleum-based jet fuel.
Biomass fuels also can be made from algae and other plant oils. Both options are being vigorously pursued by the aviation industry and the Air Force as well, Mr. Edwards said.
"Where we can get our hands on algae oils, we've proven that those fuels are pretty much the same as the camelina oil we flew on last week," Mr. Edwards said. "Looking ahead to when algae hits it big, people are putting hundreds of millions of dollars into it. We're helping to enable that algae feedstock for aviation applications."
