NOVELTY - Reducing life cycle green house gas (GHG) emissions associated with production of liquid fuel/fuel intermediate involves (i) producing sugar from plant derived organic material; (ii) fermenting the sugar to produce biogenic carbon dioxide and the liquid fuel or fuel intermediate; (iii) collecting an amount of biogenic carbon dioxide; and (iv) supplying the biogenic carbon dioxide for use in enhanced oil recovery sites or in enhanced gas recovery sites for displacement of geologic carbon dioxide.    USE - For reducing life cycle GHG emissions associated with production of a liquid fuel or fuel intermediate e.g. alcohol, propanol, butanol, ethanol derived from sorghum or wheat, or isobutanol from corn starch (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The method avoids complicated or burdensome long term leakage monitoring, verification and reporting requirements and the associated costs. Additionally, the METHOD delivers greater net GHG savings compared to systems that do not benefit from the geologic carbon dioxide displacement and avoids potential liabilities that could be incurred with leakage. The method allows fuel producers to qualify for desired credits associated with reduced GHG life cycle emissions. In addition, the method allows for the production of fuel with life cycle GHG emissions that helps obligated parties meet established targets for GHG emission reductions in jurisdictions with legislation directed to low carbon fuel standard (LCFS).    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Reducing life cycle green house gas (GHG) emissions associated with production of a liquid fuel or fuel intermediate involves (i) producing sugar from plant derived organic material; (ii) fermenting the sugar to produce biogenic carbon dioxide and the liquid fuel or fuel intermediate; (iii) collecting an amount of biogenic carbon dioxide; and (iv) supplying the biogenic carbon dioxide for use in enhanced oil recovery sites or in enhanced gas recovery sites for displacement of geologic carbon dioxide, where life cycle GHG emissions associated with the production or use of the liquid fuel or fuel intermediate are reduced by 1.5 g carbon dioxide eq/MJ relative to a production process baseline as a result of displacement of geologic carbon dioxide. INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for the following:    (1) reducing the life cycle GHG emissions associated with a process that transforms plant derived organic material into a liquid fuel or a fuel intermediate, involving producing sugar from the plant derived organic material, fermenting the sugar to produce a liquid fuel or fuel intermediate and biogenic carbon dioxide, collecting an amount of the biogenic carbon dioxide generated from the step of fermenting, and reducing the life cycle GHG emissions associated with the process, where the reducing being achieved at least in part by a displacement of geologic carbon dioxide with the biogenic carbon dioxide, where the displacement resulting from (a) introducing the biogenic carbon dioxide into an apparatus for transporting carbon dioxide to enhanced oil or gas recovery sites that used or are using geologic carbon dioxide, (b) supplying the biogenic carbon dioxide for use in enhanced oil or gas recovery sites that used or are using geologic carbon dioxide, or (c) both (a) and (b), where the life cycle GHG emission reductions are reduced by at least 1.5 g carbon dioxide eq/MJ of fuel used relative to a production process baseline as a result of the displacement of geologic carbon dioxide; and    (2) producing a liquid fuel involving blending with gasoline the liquid fuel or fuel intermediate having reduced life cycle GHG emissions.
