Vertimass and Blue biofuels have expanded on their previous license agreement to allow Blue Biofuels to convert additional volumes of ethanol into renewable jet fuel and other bio-hydrocarbons using Vertimass technology. Blue Biofuels believes this expanded license agreement has the potential to assist the company in supplying the world with more renewable fuels and chemicals and thereby combat climate change. ABOUT VERTIMASS' TECHNOLOGY: Vertimass' technology allows sustainable production of these vital fuels derived from ethanol with high yields that can dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to sourcing these products from petroleum.

Vertimass technology can also produce chemicals that are widely used building blocks from which hundreds of consumer products ranging from pharmaceuticals to paints and plastics are made. Vertimass technology for producing jet fuel and chemicals from cellulosic ethanol offers producers, such as Blue Biofuels, the flexibility to diversify their product slate and market renewable fuels and chemicals that have low carbon footprints. In addition to improving competitiveness, jet fuel and chemicals derived from ethanol can accelerate the transition to renewable fuels and chemicals and improve rural economies.
