Biofuels From Waste to Road Transport

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 wa
