The U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) added a new category of fuels to the regulatory definition of “alternative fuel,” the P-series.
These are blends of ethanol, methyltetrahydrofuran (MTHF), natural gas liquids and butane. The ethanol and MTHF will be derived from renewable domestic feedstocks, such as corn, waste paper, cellulosic biomass, agricultural waste and construction wood waste. The P-series fuels’ emissions are generally below those for reformulated gasoline and are well below federal emissions standards. The fuels have the potential to replace a billion gallons of gasoline annually by 2005.
Pure Energy Corporation, a New York-based company, holds the exclusive world-wide license to manufacture and distribute the P-series fuels.
