• Biomass for biofuels, biochemicals will more than triple to 3.7 billion tons in 2030

  Driven by aggressive biofuel mandates, rapid growth will cause great strain on biomass by 2030, according to Lux Research. Using today’s technologies, an area the size of Russia would need to be cultivated to replace all of petroleum use for chemicals and fuels – feedstock innovation will be needed more

• Highly efficient production of advanced biofuel by metabolically engineered microorganism

  Fuels including gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel are derived from fossil oil thorough the petroleum refinery processes. Increased concerns over environmental problems and limited fossil resources drive scientists and researchers to turn their attention to developing fossil-free, bio-based processes fo more

• Ancient diatoms could make biofuels, electronics and health food - at the same time

  Diatoms could finally make biofuel production from algae truly cost-effective – because they can simultaneously produce other valuable products such as semiconductors, biomedical products and even health foods.Engineers at Oregon State University concede that such technology is pushing the envelope more
