1 Novel Ways to Use Nuclear Energy for Transport: Biofuels and Shale Oil Charles Forsberg Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering Massachusetts Institute of Technology 77 Massachusetts Ave; Bld a; Cambridge, MA Tel: (617) ; Transport Options for the Future Panel American Nuclear Society Winter Meeting 4:00 PM; November 1, 2011 Washington D.C. MIT Center for Advanced Nuclear Energy Systems File: Nuclear Renewables ANS 2011 Transport Panel
2 2 Outline The Energy Challenge Liquid Fuels Nuclear Biofuels Nuclear Shale Oil
3 Energy Futures May Be Determined By Two Sustainability Goals No Imported Crude Oil No Climate Change 3 Romania Bulgaria Ukraine Black Sea Russia Kazakhstan Aral Sea Middle East Georgia Caspian Uzb ekistan Greece Turkey Armenia Azerbaijan Sea Turkmenistan Lake Van Lake Urmia Cyprus Syria Lebanon Mediterranean Sea Israel Suez Canal Jordan Iraq Iraq Iran Iran Afghanistan Pakistan Egypt Gulf of Suez Tropic of Cancer Lake Nasser Gulf of Aqaba Persian Gulf Strait of Hormuz Saudi Arabia Qatar Oman Bahrain Gulf of Oman United Arab Emirates Saudi Arabia Oman Red Sea Sudan Eritrea T'ana Hayk Ethiopia Djibouti Yemen Gulf of Aden Somalia Arabian Sea Socotra (Yemen) kilometers miles Athabasca Glacier, Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada Photo provided by the National Snow and Ice Data Center 2050 Goal: Reduce Greenhouse Gases by 80%
4 Liquid Fuels Biofuels Shale Oil
5 5 Three Inputs into Liquid Fuels Carbon: Fossil fuel (CH x ) Biomass (CHOH) Atmosphere (CO 2 ) Energy: Fossil fuel Biomass Nuclear Products: Ethanol Biofuels Diesel Hydrogen Fossil Fuel Biomass Water Feedstock Conversion Process Hydrogen Key Input for Lower Quality Feedstocks and Low CO 2 Biomass, Heavy oil, Oil Sands, Coal
6 We Will Not Run Out of Liquid Fuels But the Less a Feedstock Resembles Gasoline, The More Energy it Takes in the Conversion Process 6 Agricultural Residues Sugar Cane Oil Shale Coal
7 Liquid Fuel Feedstocks and Energy to Convert Feedstocks to Liquid Fuels Chose Options Based On Availability and Energy Input Feedstock % World s Hydrocarbons Heat Input As Fraction of Liquid Fuel Heating Value Oil 2-3% 6-10% Heavy Oil 5-7% 25-40% Natural Gas 4-6% ~50% Gas Hydrates 10-30% Oil Shales 30-50% >30% Coal/Lignite 20-30% >100% Biomass Annual To 50% 7
8 Observations on Resource Chart 8 Industrial world built on the least available fossil fuel bad strategic policy Two interesting options for the United States Shale oil: abundant, relatively low energy input to produce liquid fuels, and U.S. has the largest richest deposits in the world Biomass: renewable, relatively low energy input to produce liquid fuels, and the U.S. has the largest and most efficient agricultural industry (soil, climate, technology) in the world Look into future nuclear biomass and nuclear shale oil options
9 Nuclear Biofuels
10 10 Biomass Fuels: A Potentially Low- Greenhouse-Gas Liquid-Fuel Option Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Energy Fossil Biomass Nuclear Biomass Liquid Fuels C x H y + (X + y 4 )O 2 CO 2 + ( y 2 )H 2O Fuel Factory Cars, Trucks, and Planes
11 11 U.S. Biomass Fuels Yield Depends On the Bio-Refinery Energy Source 15 Energy Value (10 6 barrels of diesel fuel equivalent per day) Biomass Energy to Operate Bio-refinery U.S. Transport Fuel Demand 0 Burn Biomass Convert to Ethanol Convert to Diesel Fuel with Outside Hydrogen and Heat Without Impacting Food and Fiber Production
12 Future Cellulosic Liquid-Fuel Options Biomass As Energy Source Nuclear as Energy Source Biomass 12 Cellulose (65-85% Biomass) Lignin (15-35% Biomass) Steam Hydrogen (small quantities) Steam Heat Ethanol Plant Steam Plant Lignin Plant Nuclear Reactor Ethanol Plant Electricity Ethanol Biomass Nuclear Biomass Gasoline/ Diesel 50% Increase Liquid Fuel/Unit Biomass Nuclear Energy Increases Liquid Fuels Per Ton of Biomass Ethanol
13 13 Biomass As Feedstock and Boiler Fuel: Useful But Not a Game Changer Biomass Feedstock and Nuclear Energy Replace Oil for Transport in United States
14 Nuclear Shale Oil
15 U.S. Oil Shale Could Replace Conventional Oil Green River recoverable reserves ~1.4 trillion barrels of oil Total world production of oil to date is 1.1 trillion barrels ~1 million barrels of oil per acre; Most concentrated fossil fuel on earth Pilot plants in operation 15
16 Conventional Shale Oil Production Implies Large Greenhouse Impacts 16 Oil shale contains no oil but instead kerogen Heat kerogen underground to produce shale oil Current strategy burn one third of oil and gas product to heat shale Large carbon dioxide release during production
17 17 Nuclear Shale Oil Option Nuclear heating of oil shale (~370 C plus T) to decompose into shale oil and char Carbon residue left underground Low production carbon footprint with sequestration that works
18 Nuclear Shale Oil and Variable Electricity Production 18 Shale heated over a period of months to years Economic base-load nuclear plant can heat shale at night and produce variable electricity as needed Replace variable load fossil power plants
19 19 Low Greenhouse Gas Emissions Nuclear Shale Oil With Variable Electricity Replaces variable electricity from fossil plants Enables renewables with nocarbon (no gas turbine) backup from base-load nuclear Carbon credits from variable electricity lowers shale-oil carbon footprint to as low as half of gasoline from crude oil Lowest environmental impact fossil fuel
20 Nuclear Shale-Oil With Variable Electricity: the Cleanest Fossil Fuel? Example analysis: assumptions 2-GWY nuclear: ½ variable electricity, ½ shale oil 1-GWY nuclear heat yields 2 GWY shale oil Nuclear and fossil electricity efficiencies identical Results 1-GWY no-fossil fuel variable electricity 2-GWY shale oil CO 2 saved from nuclear variable electricity equal to not burning 1-GWY shale oil: Can be credited to shale oil Net Greenhouse Gas Release per Liter Half That of Gasoline From Crude Oil 20
21 21 Conventional Shale Oil Production: Large Greenhouse Impacts Nuclear Shale Oil and Variable Electricity (1) Low Environmental Impact Fossil Liquid Fuel (2) Enable Large Scale Renewables with Low-Cost Low-Carbon Variable Electricity
22 22 Conclusions Liquid fuels central energy challenge to the U.S. Two areas where the U.S. has a natural advantage Biomass world s most productive agriculture Shale oil world s richest and largest deposits In both cases there is the potential for nuclear to be the enabling technology for a low-carbon liquid fuel future Many uncertainties remain Technology Economics Institutional probably the major challenge

24 24 Biography: Charles Forsberg Dr. Charles Forsberg is the Executive Director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Nuclear Fuel Cycle Study, Director and principle investigator of the High-Temperature Salt-Cooled Reactor Project, and University Lead for Idaho National Laboratory Institute for Nuclear Energy and Science (INEST) Nuclear Hybrid Energy Systems program. Before joining MIT, he was a Corporate Fellow at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He is a Fellow of the American Nuclear Society, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and recipient of the 2005 Robert E. Wilson Award from the American Institute of Chemical Engineers for outstanding chemical engineering contributions to nuclear energy, including his work in hydrogen production and nuclear-renewable energy futures. He received the American Nuclear Society special award for innovative nuclear reactor design on salt-cooled reactors. Dr. Forsberg earned his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Minnesota and his doctorate in Nuclear Engineering from MIT. He has been awarded 11 patents and has published over 200 papers. files/pdf/nes-115.pdf
