Bioenergy Int Internat ional No 80, 4-2015 27 Brewery betting on HVO fuelled delivery trucks Carlsberg Sweden, the Swedish subsidiary of the international drinks major Carlsberg Group, has announced it is investing in hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) fuelled trucks. Together with Volvo Trucks and fuel retailer Statoil, the project involves Statoil building a special HVO filling station in the greater Stockholm area, enabling other companies to make similar fleet investments. Produced from residual waste, HVO or renewable diesel is already widely available as the low-blend component in conventional diesel. However running on pure HVO, HVO 100, can dramatically reduce carbon dioxide emissions - by up to 90 percent compared to fossil diesel - as well as reduce particulates. - We are constantly striving to lighten our climate footprint and have both electric hybrid and gas-powered trucks in our fleet. Now we have a number of HVO trucks that have just started to roll, said Gabriel Treschow, Head of Distribution at Carlsberg Sweden. In the first phase Carlsberg Sweden has invested in three HVO trucks from truck manufacturer Volvo. These delivery trucks will primarily operate in the Stockholm area and be refuelled at the Statoil HVO station in Länna, the first HVO filling station in Stockholm. Earlier this year Statoil opened a filling station in Götene, southern Sweden. The Swedish transportation fuels market is undergoing major change with a focus on phasing out fossil fuels. BI80/4891/AS Swiss specialty chemicals major Clariant International has been recognised for its innovative advanced biofuel production process. The company’s “sunliquid” process, used in the manufacturing of cellulosic ethanol from agricultural residues such as straw, was a recipient of the third place GreenTec Award 2015 in the automobility category. The GreenTec Award is Europe’s renowned environmental and business award, which highlights innovative projects that point the way to a cleaner future. The fully integrated two-step biotechnological process is used to produce cellulosic ethanol from agricultural residues such as cereal straw, corn stover or sugarcane bagasse. In the first step of the highly optimised process, feedstockspecific biocatalysts split cellulose and hemicellulose into fermentable sugars under stable processing conditions and in high yields. The process-integrated self-production of the biocatalysts offers flexibility and reduces production costs. In the next step, an optimised fermentation organism enables the conversion of both C5 and C6 sugars into ethanol, thereby increasing the ethanol yield by around 50 percent. An advanced purification process developed by Clariant removes the insoluble residual lignin. The lignin is used as process fuel and the amount removed is sufficient to provide all the energy needed for the cellulosic ethanol production process. According to Clariant the resulting cellulosic ethanol saves around 95 percent carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions compared to fossil-derived gasoline. A successful fleet test was carried out last year in Germany in cooperation with Mercedes-Benz and Haltermann whereby a 20 percent blend of cellulosic ethanol in gasoline was used. Compared to standard gasoline the results were impressive; no additional fuel consumption, ideal combustion characteristics, 50 percent reduction in particle emissions and outstanding engine performance.
