Abstract

The present invention relates to improved production methods and production equipment for fluid fuels including but not limited to ethanol, gasoline, hydrogen, naphtha (for olefin manufacture) and/or diesel but most particularly, “designed” synthetic diesel fuels for use in corresponding diesel engines. Apparatus and methods for producing the fluid fuels are described.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method for the production of a bio-diesel fuel from bio-mass, the method comprising:
 (a) providing a quantity of bio-mass;   (b) combining the biomass with CO 2  and ethanol, methanol, or a combination thereof in a catalyst-lined channel at a temperature of at least 80° C. and a pressure of at least 1000 psia to form a mixture of bio-diesel and glycerol;   (c) separating the glycerol from the bio-diesel.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1  further comprising the various aspects of the embodiments disclosed in the specification.
