Optimizing fuels for sustainable transport - OPTFUEL

2nd generation biofuels, like BtL-diesel (biomass to liquid) are one option for future mobility. This project is expected to demonstrate "optimized fuels for sustainable transport" and pave the way for the large-scale production of 2nd-generation bio-fuels for transportation based on gasification of wood and forestry residues.
