<div> Does anyone know how they address the problems of pyrolysis oil such as it's acidic nature, tends to harden by auto oxidation over time, and other issues that the US DOE has spent significant amounts of money on and no one that I am aware of including folks trying fast pyrolysis have overcome? </div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>In the late 60's or early 70's Occidental Chemical tried a 200 ton/day fast pyrolysis plant in the San Diego area that ran for 8 hours before they scrapped it. This has been going on for a long time. </div>

According to my knowledge, one plant has allready been build in Norway, but due to the fact that the oil producing government of Norway (or Statoil), was not ready to give them a start up tax reduction for their finished products, its is not in operation.<br>
<br>
A pilot plant in a smaler scale, has been running for some time now, funded by EU.<br>

<div class="aolmail_ecxMsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family: ">Empyro BV announces that the construction of its pyrolysis oil production plant has started at the AkzoNobel site in Hengelo (The Netherlands). By the end of this year construction will have been completed. The production capacity will then be gradually increased to its maximum of over 20 million litres of pyrolysis oil per year. This amount of renewable oil will replace 12 million cubic meters of natural gas, the equivalent annual consumption of 8,000 Dutch households, which saves up to 20,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year. Additionally, the project creates approximately 100 person-years of work in Overijssel.</span></b></div>
