Global Bioenergies, IBN-One and Lantmännen Aspen partner on isooctane

July 12, 2016 |

In France, Global Bioenergies, IBN-One and Lantmännen Aspen, world market leader in alkylate gasoline for two and four stroke small engines, announce having entered into a partnership on renewable isooctane for specialty fuel applications.

Aspen is part of the Swedish Lantmännen group, an agricultural cooperative and Northern Europe’s leader in agriculture, machinery, bioenergy and food products with annual revenues of 3.4 billion euros. In particular, Lantmännen Aspen’s commercial activities include specialty fuels for usage in two and four stroke small engines e.g. chainsaws and lawn mowers where the man, machine and environment benefit from a cleaner fuel quality regarding harmful substances compared to regular gasoline.

Renewable isooctane is a highly valued gasoline hydrocarbon suitable in several of Lantmännen Aspen specialty fuel ranges.

In this context, Global Bioenergies, IBN-One and Lantmännen Aspen have signed an agreement conferring Lantmännen Aspen access rights to renewable isooctane for specialty fuel applications, both from the next-to-come Leuna demo plant and from the future IBN-One commercial plant. Lantmännen Aspen will financially contribute to the progress of commercialization of renewable isooctane by a partnership with both Global Bioenergies and IBN-One.
