Résumé
The objective of this Project is to research and develop specific, step-wise catalytic processes for the purpose of converting synthesis gas, obtained from thermal gasification of municipal solid waste, into drop-in renewable fuels which ultimately can displace conventional gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.. The proposed research will enable the proponent to accelerate the implementation of its "hub and spoke" strategy of biofuels and bioproducts, initially in Quebec and Alberta, but gradually expanding to other provincial regions of this country.

Program Purpose
The objective of this Project is to research and develop specific, step-wise catalytic processes for the purpose of converting synthesis gas, obtained from thermal gasification of municipal solid waste, into drop-in renewable fuels which ultimately can displace conventional gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.. The proposed research will enable the proponent to accelerate the implementation of its "hub and spoke" strategy of biofuels and bioproducts, initially in Quebec and Alberta, but gradually expanding to other provincial regions of this country.
Program Purpose (French)
Ce projet a pour objectif d'étudier et de mettre au point des processus catalytiques précis et étape par étape afin de convertir les gaz synthétiques obtenus par gazéification thermique des déchets solides municipaux en carburants renouvelables prêts à l'emploi (" drop-in ") qui pourront éventuellement remplacer l'essence, le diésel et le carburant aviation conventionnels. La recherche proposée permettra au promoteur d'accélérer la mise en oeuvre de sa stratégie de type «moyeu et rayons» pour les biocarburants et les bioproduits, d'abord au Québec et en Alberta, mais s'étendant graduellement à d'autres provinces du pays.
