Basics
- Difficult to do from a methane upgrading route, but this paper shows it is possible
- The paper used a Chromium-Zinc Catalyst on a β-Zeolite Catalyst, which is luckily not too rare (ie no rare earth metals etc)
Internal Links
- EForFuel
- A Project using P2X Technology and Formic Acid Fed Precision Fermentation to make Bio-Butane, with a goal of usage as Autogas
- DME / DME Blending / DME-Propane Blending
- While NOT the same, the similar storage conditions have lead some propane groups to propose blending DME into the propane as a means to reduce the Carbon Intensity of the fuel
- Propane Storage Architecture
