Yesterday was the grand unveiling of what is being billed as a first-of-its-kind biofuels retail station. SeQuential Biofuels, the first major fuel retailer in the Pacific Northwest to offer several biofuel-blended motor fuels to the mainstream market under a single, branded canopy, says the new station is no ordinary pit stop. Renewable energy, energy efficiency and sustainable design elements are themes throughout the site. The book addresses four main topics in the algal biofuel value-chain. The station features 244 solar panels covering the fueling islands that provide 30 to 50 percent of the electrical power that the station will require annually. Handbook of Algal Biofuels: Aspects of Cultivation, Conversion and Biorefinery comprehensively covers the cultivation, harvesting, conversion, and utilization of microalgae and seaweeds for different kinds of biofuels. Other eco-friendly design elements include stormwater detention "bioswales" where plants will filter pollutants from rainwater that rinses the roadways and parking areas and will clean the water before it leaves the site.Ī "living roof" of 4,800 live plants installed in five inches of soil on the roof of the convenience store will help cool the building during the summer. The suggested integrated approach using a mixture of liquid digestate-pretreated straw to manure at a ratio of 1:3 for dual purpose of biogas and biodiesel production enhanced the gross bioenergy yield by 95.7, 24.6, and 38.7 over those of raw rapeseed straw, pretreated straw, or chicken manure, respectively.

"Today our customers are demanding domestically-produced, renewable motor fuel options as well." "We have watched the offering of mainstream organic products and recycled products expand significantly over the last five years," said Ian Hill, project developer and SeQuential Biofuels co-founder. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. (eds.), Advances in Water Resources, Coastal Management, and Marine Science Technology. This truly sustainable approach benefits local farming activities and supports the greening of communities both environmentally and economically. The land where the station is located was the site of a previous fuel station that shut down more than ten years ago. Mixed enzymes on sequential biofuel productivity in an anaerobic digestion system of molasses wastewater. The SeQuential Pacific Biodiesel community-based model uses locally collected waste cooking oil and Oregon-grown canola as feedstocks.
