WASTE2ROAD aims to develop a new generation of cost-effective biofuels from a selected range of low cost and abundant biogenic residues and waste fractions. This will be achieved through optimisation of European waste recycling logistics and development of efficient conversion technologies, giving carbon yields > 45% with greenhouse gases (GHG) savings > 80% from conversion of feedstocks from the approximate 220 M tons unrecycled waste streams. The consortium, covering the full value chain from waste collection and recycling via co-refining through to road transport, will deploy risk-mitigation pathways to realise industrial implementation, with primary processing at European waste recycling sites and co-processing within European refineries, achieving pilot testing at TRL 5 at the end of the project.
Management of biogenic residues and waste (including sorting and pre-treatment strategies) is a strong focus in the project, to allow a subsequent transformation of a diverse range of waste into intermediate bio-liquids, deploying both fast pyrolysis and hydrothermal liquefaction. Production of advanced biofuels will then be enabled through intermediate refining processes (fractionation, stabilisation) combined with existing downstream refinery co-processing technologies, more specifically co-Fluid Catalytic Cracking and co-hydrotreating/hydrocracking, both at different levels of severities (temperatures, hydrogen consumption, carbon yield). Products to be used for road transport are aimed at gasoline and diesel with assessment of final end-use compatibility.
The project runs from 10/2018 to 9/2022 with an overall budget of 5 million euro.
