This webinar presents the 2019 update of the 2014 IEA Bioenergy Task 39 “drop-in” biofuels report. It reviews the status of technologies, the progress of the various technical approaches and updates the successes, challenges and obstacles that have been encountered during the commercialisation of low carbon intensity (CI) drop-in biofuels. This update report has assessed the opportunity to use petroleum refinery infrastructure to co-process feedstocks/intermediates such as lipids, oleochemicals, bio-oils and biocrudes to finished, low carbon intensity (CI) drop-in biofuels.
