Biofuels

Maverick Biofuels uses proven, clean-energy technology to convert all waste biomass into high-energy biofuels at a lower overall cost. With 85% of the energy of gasoline, Maverick’s mixed-alcohol biofuel is a superior replacement for ethanol in fuel blends and can eliminate the use of gasoline in flexible-fuel vehicles. Maverick’s mixed-alcohol biofuels are cleaner-burning than gasoline and are distribution-channel friendly. Unlike first generation ethanol-based biofuels that rely on edible feedstocks, Maverick’s gasification-based process will convert biomass or waste stream (crop, timber, landfill, etc.) into biofuels, and conventional feedstocks, such as natural gas and coal, into alternative fuels. Maverick’s approach has the flexibility to produce a variety of biofuels (bio-refinery), including mixed-alcohol, bio-LPG, and other bio-products (such as polypropylene). Although yet to be combined, all major steps in Maverick's three-step thermo-chemical process have been proven at production scale.

Advantage of Maverick's Mixed-Alcohol Biofuels

Higher Energy
Maverick Biofuels’ mixed-alcohol biofuel product in particular has more energy (BTUs) than ethanol and contains approximately 85% of the energy of gasoline. Higher energy content translates to higher gas mileage when compared to ethanol or ethanol blends. 

Distribution Channel Friendly
Maverick’s mixed-alcohol biofuel is distribution channel friendly. Mixed-alcohol biofuel is one of the few biofuels that is capable of being integrated into existing distribution channels in its pure form or by blending with gasoline. Mixed-alcohol biofuel can be blended at higher percentages than pure ethanol, thereby further offsetting the use of gasoline as compared to pure ethanol.

Cleaner Burning
Maverick’s mixed-alcohol biofuel is a cleaner-burning alternative to gasoline. Maverick’s mixed-alcohol biofuels can be used as a direct replacement for E85 fuel in flexible fuel engines, thus eliminating the added expense of blending and reducing the dependency on petroleum.
