Biomass Farming

The bio-masses used for the bio-fuels pathways are:

  • Soybean
  • Palm FFb
  • Rapeseed
  • Jatropha
  • Camelina

All those farming processes are implemented in GREET. They are using regular US averages fertilizer production and Diesel for non road engine to power the farming tractors and other stationary engines used (pumps, conveyors...)

The products are assumed to be transported dried so there is no need to specify the moisture content of those materials in the transportation processes after those farming processes.

Bio-fuels production

Bio-fuels production generates a lot of valuable co-products such as SBM or Glycerine.
