Abstract:
The production of electricity, fuels and chemicals using high carbon intensity and environmentally damaging petroleum products drove the industrial revolution and the information economy. To reduce the impact on the environment of crude oil, natural gas, and coal; the production of renewable electricity, renewable fuels, and renewable chemicals is a major technological development opportunity.
Carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight are the materials and energy source for biomass, so the production of fuels and chemicals using plant materials enables the use of atmospheric carbon instead of subterranean carbon to produce energy and chemicals.
This talk will provide an overview of the interrelated projects currently in operation and being built by Aemetis, a Cupertino, California technology company that produces low carbon and negative carbon intensity electricity, fuels and chemicals.
