History

Sunfuel/Synfuel
Sunfuel/Synfuel may be produced from gasified biomass or biogas via Fischer Tropsch Synthesis.
GTL is a very narrowly defined fuel with low impurities,lacking sulphur and aromatic compounds. The Cetane figure is higher (>70 to 90). The boiling range differs depending on the feedstock. Bio-GTL (gas to liquid) has a lower boiling range compared to diesel.
The low aromomatic content decreases swelling of elastomeres.
GTL-fuel is biodegradable under aquatic and aerobic conditions.
A low amount of additive is needed to ensure sufficient lubricity.
Because of the higher H/C ration the density is smaller (0.75 kg/l) but the heating value higher (47.1 MJ/kg) compared to diesel.
