Biomass processing

Biomass processing research is focused on improved conversion technologies for plant biomass—the only foreseeable sustainable source of organic fuels, chemicals, and materials. These technologies have outstanding potential to address pressing societal challenges. A comprehensive effort in this area encompasses applied microbiology, metabolic and cellular engineering, kinetics and reactor design, process design, and resource and environmental analysis.
