Seminar: Strategies to generate economically viable biofuels from cellulosic biomass: Approaches from the BioEnergy Science Center
(Seminar/Conference)
Dr. Paul Gilna, Director of the BioEnergy Science Center, Oakridge National Laboratory
Light refreshments at 3:15 followed by a seminar at 3:30.
The challenge of producing and converting sustainable cellulosic biomass into fuels presents the opportunity for science and technology to make an appreciable national and indeed global impact in the next 20 years. Overcoming the inability to easily access the sugars and other monomers from cellulosic sources in order to make fuelsl or other products, or recalcitrance, is one of the major challenges to cost-effective biofuel production.
