Public Knowledge |
High Energy BioFuels do not involve any esters, as opposed to conventional FAME BioDiesel (after fatty acid methyl ester) because of the energy-deficiency, as an inherent CO2 liability or dead weight in their structure.
R-(CO-O)-CH3
HEBF(High Energy BioFuel) technology deals with this problem through state of the art technology involving energy-rich compounds instead of ester compounds.
R-CN
This fact has been proven with calorimetric studies, where HEBF compete at the same energy levels as commercial petroleum fuels.
