Biomass
- Biomass for Electricity Generation, Energy Information Administration, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) - This paper examines issues affecting the uses of biomass for electricity generation.
- The U.S. DOE Biomass Program develops technology for conversion of biomass (plant-derived material) to valuable fuels, chemicals, materials and power, reducing dependence on foreign oil and fostering growth of biorefineries.
Topics:
- Bioreactors, Biorefineries and Enzymatic Hydrolysis
- Bioprocessing & Bioproducts Degree Programs - Several American universities have begun to develop degree programs to provide students the professional engineering, chemistry and biological science background in the expanding fields of bio-based product engineering, processing and product development. These programs are focused on implementing new emerging ideas and technologies that are an inherent component of complex "next generation" of agricultural industries.
