This is the second new patent filed by the company this year. NGBF filed a patent application on its new glycerin-based biofuel in May this year.
Cary Claiborne, CEO and president of NGBF, said: “I believe that this is truly a technical breakthrough to have a pyrolysis oil-based biofuel that we can offer our customers. Pyrolysis oil has great potential but until now has been a technical challenge for many to incorporate into their biofuel technology. We believe NGBF’s emulsion technology is a perfect fit.”
Andrea Festuccia, chief technology officer of NGBF, said: “Pyrolysis oil can be made from a wide range of biological and other energy containing products that would normally be waste materials. The supply opportunities are great.
“Plant wastes, items normally heading to a landfill, and other waste streams that are often difficult to dispose of can now become energy sources for our biofuel formulations. Pyrolysis oil adds another differentiating advantage for us. We believe this is a significant addition to our product portfolio.”
