BC Transit Fuel Cell Buses in Operation for 2010 Winter Olympics
In November 2009, I had talked about how the first of the 20 BC Transit hydrogen fuel cell buses were arriving in Whistler, British Columbia in time for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics.
The 20 BC Transit hydrogen buses, powered by Ballard fuel cells, are the largest single bus fleet anywhere. Besides being zero emissions vehicles, the BC hydrogen buses have a range of over 300 miles and can be refueled in 8 to 10 minutes. Air Liquide will be supplying the compressed hydrogen gas for refueling.
Once the Olympics are over with the buses will continue to be part of the BC Canada Hydrogen Highway system, which is part of the West Coast hydrogen highway system that is being built from Whistler, BC all the way down the coast to around the San Diego area.
The 2009 Hydrogen Road Tour that took place this past summer featured a procession of hydrogen cars traveling from Chula Vista, CA (south of San Diego) to Vancouver, BC with many stops at H2 fueling stations along the way.
Joining the 20 BC Transit H2 buses at the Olympics will be a hydrogen fuel cell hybrid bus from the University of South Carolina and a fleet of Chevy Equinox fuel cell vehicles. The 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics will begin this Friday, February 12, 2010.

Biodigester near Denmark to turn waste into usable products
From an article by Richard Ryman in the Green Bay Press Gazette:
NEW DENMARK — It looks like a big cement box and in operation resembles a cow’s stomach, but a commercial anaerobic biodigester under construction just southeast of Denmark will fill a lot of roles.
NEW Organic Digestion, owned by American Foods Group and the people who own Northern Concrete, is building the facility primarily to dispose of byproducts from American Foods’ operations in Green Bay.
The project will cost between $5 million and $6 million, said co-owner Rob Larsen. The biodigester will hold a little more than 2 million gallons working its way through the tank on a 22-day cycle. Larsen said they will be able to add 60 to 100 tons to the process daily. They expect to put it into service in March.
The process will result in several products, including methane gas, electricity, heat and waste solids that can be used for cattle bedding or other purposes.
Larsen said his family, dad John Larsen in particular, have been land-applying paunch manure for American Foods for years.
Paunch manure is partially digested food, usually consumed the same day the cow is slaughtered. The waste includes wash water and unused fats.

Salicornia Biofuel for Jet Engines Could Compete With Petrol Fuels and Emit Zero CO2
Salicornia is an alga that grows in salty waters and whose seeds can produce biofuels abundantly. Masdar Institute researchers, along with several companies like Boeing, Etihad Airways, and UOP Honeywell devised a method of growing salicornia for getting biofuels out of it and keeping the CO2 balance in proper equilibrium.
