Caltech has been selected to supply the Dry Ash System consisting in the Extraction, Cooling, Storage System including Truck Loading System for an important German customer. The project is located in an industrial plant near Reno, Nevada, USA, that will produce renewable transportation fuel from household garbage.
The innovative approach is to use household waste as feedstock for kerosene fuel production.
In the BioFuels Plant, municipal solid waste (MSW) is gasified, creating a synthesis gas which is processed and converted into a liquid to be further refined into synthetic jet fuel.
This plant is the first of its kind – worldwide – to convert garbage into jet fuel at a large scale.
