W2 Energy Inc. Begins Development of a Bio-Butanol Product
Posted on: Tuesday, 26 June 2007, 06:24 CDT
W2 Energy Inc. (PINKSHEETS: WWEN) (FRANKFURT: WJD), a producer of Green Energy, is pleased to announce it will begin development of a Bio-butanol product.
Bio-butanol can be used as a fuel in internal combustion engines because of its long hydrocarbon chains and is closer to the properties of gasoline than ethanol. Butanol has been demonstrated to work in some gasoline vehicles without any modification or blending. W2 Energy Inc.'s butanol product will be manufactured from syn-gas derived from non-food biomass and waste products using the company's plasma reactor system.
Butanol is more resistant to water contamination and is less corrosive than ethanol, therefore making it suitable for distribution through existing pipelines designed for gasoline. Butanol blends readily with diesel or gasoline, and is less likely to separate from this fuel if it is contaminated with water, unlike ethanol which is very reactive to water contamination.
Mr. Michael McLaren states, "W2 Energy is pleased to pursue the development of a butanol product from syn-gas. This product has been described as the fuel of choice for the future and W2 Energy will be positioned in the marketplace offering a superior, environmentally friendly carbon neutral fuel derived from waste and biomass rather than food crops which so many ethanol, bio-diesel and butanol products are manufactured from today."
