abstract = {The Cluster “Tailor-made fuels from biomass” at RWTH Aachen University screens a wide variety of potential lignocellulose-based molecules with promising properties as fuel components. For four selected candidates detailed production routes were proposed and analysed based on conceptual process design: 2- and 3- methyltetrahydrofuran (MTHF)2-methylfuran (MF)2-butanone (methyl ethyl ketone, MEK) In internal combustion engines MTHF can serve as a diesel substitute, while MF and butanone are gasoline substitutes. This report presents the results of a lifecycle assessment (LCA) which was carried out for three potential biorefinery concepts producing these fuels using woodchips as feed.},
