Presentation Transcript

  1. Denatured Ethanol SpecificationsWSPA Position • The denatured ethanol specifications should be set at a level that will encourage the maximum number of suppliers while at the same recognizing refiners' need for clean blendstocks • To help ensure the cleanest ethanol possible, Phase 3 RFG or its equivalent should be used as the denaturant.

  2. Denatured Ethanol Specifications

  3. Denatured EthanolSulfur Specification • RFA survey data for sulfur in raw ethanol ranged from 1-11 ppm • 11 ppm “out of the norm” • With denaturant addition, 15 ppm limit judged to be feasible by RFA • What impacts would a specification lower than 15 ppm have? • Suggest CARB and CEC evaluate

  4. Denatured Ethanol SpecificationOther Issues • Suggest CARB and CEC investigate potential impacts on “other” sources of ethanol • Rice straw • Foreign sources • Suggest that potential for reduced denaturant addition levels be investigated • Effective date of specifications? • Test methods/quality assurance?
