原油价格上涨、能源进口增加、石油供应问题以及人们对化石燃料的环境后果的认识加深,促使人们寻找替代燃料。在选择长期发展的适当来源方面,必须确定哪一种来源最具可持续性。本文介绍了一种系统的方法,基于层次分析法技术比较生物柴油原料替代品的技术,经济和可持续发展方面的整个生命周期的生物柴油生产。以麻风树、藻类、棕榈油、油菜籽和大豆五种生物柴油原料为研究对象,对其进行了定量评价。在这些替代品中,并采用推荐的评分结构,计算结果显示,藻类生物柴油是排名最高的柴油替代品,因为它在环境,经济,安全,原料性能和燃料性能方面的综合性能更好。(C)2008年美国化学工程师学会环境规划,28:38 - 46,2009年
Higher crude-oil prices, increases in energy imports, converns about petroleum supplies, and greater recognition of environmental concequences of fossil fuels have spurred a search for alternative sources of fuel. In the aspect of choosing an appropriate source for a long-term development, it is necessary to decide which is the most sustainable. This article describes a systematic method based on Analytical Hierarchical Process technique to compare biodiesel feedstock alternatives on technical, economical, and sustainable aspects throughout life cycles of biodiesel production. Five biodiesel feedstocks which are jatropha, algae, palm oil, rapeseed, and soybean are taken into consideration in a quantified evaluation. Among these alternatives and with a recommended scoring structure, biodiesel from algae is shown in the calculation results to be the highest ranking substitute for diesel fuel due to its overalll better performance in the aspects of environment, economical, safety, raw material performance, and fuel performance.
