25 5. THE TOUGH NUTS TO CRACK 02/04/2013
26 Best customer value at lowest cost economic assessment Best customer value with minimal environmental burden - LCA
27 The difficult part is the Biofuel Supply Chain Significant economic optimisation challenges

37 NOx, g/kwh Emissions on combustion 8 Diesel 6 Glycerol Gas Engine, natural gas Glycerol with catalytic abatement CO, g/kwh EPA-Tier 4 Independently verified
38 Glycerol supply? Biodiesel supply chain hitch-hike
39 Glycerol market / t glycerol mt glycerol World glycerol production World glycerol price 02/04/2013
40 Best customer value at lowest cost economic assessment Best customer value with minimal environmental burden - LCA
41 Can Glycerol costs come down? perhaps from algae? CO 2 savings (tonnes pa) Glycerol CHP Gas CHP ~2,000 ~500 Costs pa + 270,000-60,000 Forecast reduction in glycerol price from circa 10p/kWh to around 7p/kWh, as a consequence of additional refinery capacity Glycerol CHP would still be marginally more expensive to operate than the current arrangements. 02/04/2013
