The European Investment Bank (EIB) was set up in 1958 by the Treaty of Rome as the long term lending Bank of the European Union. The EIB lends money to the public and private sectors for projects of European interest
An olefinic hydrocarbon recovered from refinery processes or petrochemical processes. Ethylene is used as a petrochemical feedstock for numerous chemical applications and the production of consumer goods.
A chemical compound produced in a reaction between ethanol and isobutylene (a petroleum-derived by-product of the refining process). ETBE has characteristics superior to other ethers: low volatility, low water solubility, high octane value, and a large reduction in carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon emissions
A generic term applied to a group of organic chemical compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, characterized by an oxygen atom attached to two carbon atoms (e.g., methyl tertiary butyl ether).
Ethanol also known as ethyl alcohol or grain alcohol, can be used either as an alternative fuel or as an octane-boosting, pollution-reducing additive to gasoline. Corn and other starches and sugars are only a small fraction of biomass that can be used to make ethanol. Advanced bioethanol technology allows fuel ethanol to be made from cellulosic (plant fiber) biomass, such as agricultural forestry residues, industrial waste, material in municipal solid waste, trees and grasses.
The saturated hydrocarbon which is primarily extracted from natural gas, but also from recovered refinery gases. It is a gaseous hydrocarbon, the second most important constituent of natural gas. It also occurs dissolved in petroleum oils and as a by-product of oil refinery operations and of the carbonization of coal.
Estimated Ultimate Recovery is defined as those quantities of petroleum which are estimated, on a given date, to be potentially recoverable from an accumulation, plus those quantities already produced therefrom. Estimated Ultimate Recovery is not a resource category as such, but a term which may be applied to an individual accumulation of any status/maturity (discovered or undiscovered).
