Biofuels and e-fuels

The energy transition and tackling climate change depend on the development of new renewable resources. IFPEN proposes processes for the production of fuels, bases for the chemicals sector and gas from biomass. IFPEN also uses its expertise acquired in the field of oil and gas to offer solutions for the

Biofuels and e-fuels Our strengths Scientific and technical expertise stemming from process development, present throughout the biofuel value chain catalysis and biocatalysis, chemical engineering, process engineering, dimensioning and design of pilot units and demonstrators, analysis. Pilot units at the IFP-Lyon site and demonstrators of the key building blocks in the

Biofuels and e-fuels OVERVIEW AND CHALLENGES In France, in 2019, the transport sector emitted 132 million metric tons of CO 2, i.e. 30% of the country’s total emissions. Renewable and low-carbon fuels are mature and available solutions and, alongside electrification and energy efficiency, represent crucial decarbonization levers. In order to

From the pretreatment of biomass to fuel production, via the optimization and integration of the different steps, IFPEN’s research covers the entire process chain.
