Read more...A two year study commissioned by Airbus and partners including Virgin Australia in 2012 into the practicability of using Australia's mallee trees to make biofuels suitable for powering passenger jets has reported encouraging results.
The report published by the Future Farm Industries Cooperative Centre (CRC) concludes that jet fuel made from the mallee tree will meet strict sustainability criteria determined by the Roundtable for Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB) and will be suitable for commercial flights according to the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).
The sustainability and life-cycle analysis covered the growing and harvesting of the mallee tree and its conversion into aviation grade biofuel via the pyrolysis thermal and upgrading processes developed by Dynamotive and IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN). Mallee trees flourish in regions of poor soil and do not directly compete for water nor with food production. The vast Great Southern region of Western Australia was used in the study, which included examining the viability of a complete industry supply chain from grower to aviation user.
"What this report demonstrates is that mallees can provide a future economic benefit to farmers and regional communities, with a viable industry possible by 2021 said Dr John McGrath, CRC Research Director. "Mallee integrates well with farm crop and livestock operations and can protect and enhance biodiversity, and contributing to rebalancing water tables."
The study shows that if all flights departing Perth airport were powered by locally sourced mallee biofuel, that emissions could be reduced by at least 40 per cent.
Virgin Australia Regional Airlines Group Executive, Merren McArthur, said, "Virgin Australia remains committed to supporting innovative Australian research into the feasibility of aviation biofuels and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in Australia. The results show mallee jet fuel is a more sustainable option than our current fossil-based fuel supply while also providing valuable insights into potential new supply chains. We look forward to supporting the project and to getting closer to the commercial supply of biofuel in Western Australia," said Ms McArthur.
"The outcome of this report is positive and supports Airbus' global strategy of seeking the best local solutions for the development and commercialisation of sustainable fuels for aviation. Since 2008 Airbus has been engaged in a worldwide programme to develop solutions and this report is an important step towards achieving the goals the industry has set itself for carbon neutral growth," said Frederic Eychenne, Airbus New Energies Programme Manager.

Consiguen identificar explosivos una vez detonados mediante imágenes por terahercio
// Instituto de la Ingeniería de España
Un ingeniero de telecomunicación por la Universidad Pública de Navarra ha desarrollado en su tesis un sistema de detección mediante imágenes de terahercios que permite identificar componentes explosivos no sólo en su estado puro sino también, por primera vez, tras haberse producido la detonación.
Hay objetos que no podemos ver en el rango de lo visible, pero sí con sistemas de imagen que utilizan la longitud del terahercio (THz). En ese rango, podemos detectar por ejemplo un cuerpo extraño, oculto bajo la ropa, pero también determinar el material del que está compuesto. David Etayo, ingeniero de telecomunicación y doctor por la Universidad Pública de Navarra, ha podido identificar componentes explosivos no sólo en su estado puro sino también, por primera vez, tras haberse producido la detonación.
Según explica el investigador en la nota de prensa de la UPNA, han ido "un paso más allá en el sistema de imagen". Además de detectar que hay un objeto, han caracterizado distintos materiales para ver cómo reaccionan en el rango del THz.
Uno de los logros de la tesis doctoral ha sido caracterizar explosivos ya detonados. "Lo habitual es caracterizar los explosivos en su forma de laboratorio, recién producidos, cuando son seguros, pero lo que ocurre, por ejemplo después de un atentado, es que sólo quedan unos restos y son totalmente distintos a los materiales de origen".
El uso de esta tecnología podría permitir también incorporar estos sistemas a los robots-oruga utilizados para desactivar artefactos, de manera que pudieran detectar el explosivo del que se trate.
Otra parte de la tesis se centró en aplicaciones de la tecnología de THz en los campos de la agricultura e industria alimentaria. En el primer caso, se trabajó con vides, ya que los THz son muy sensibles al contenido en agua de la muestra: "Aunque a simple vista no se aprecien variaciones, si analizas la imagen de una hoja de vid en terahercios se ve perfectamente cómo el contenido de agua varía día a día. Esto permite tener un mayor control de las plantas, reducir costes de riego, poder mejorar la calidad del vino, etc.".
