Researchers at the University of California, Davis have developed a process for the production of branched C 7 –C 10 hydrocarbons in the gasoline volatility range from biomass-derived levulinic acid with good yield, operating under relatively mild conditions, with short reaction times. barrels of oil (117.6 gallons US). 201308143.

2,3BD is a key chemical building block used to make polymers, plastics and hydrocarbon fuels; it can be readily converted to intermediaries such as butenes, butadiene and methyl ethyl ketone that are used in the production of hydrocarbon fuels and a variety of chemicals including polymers, synthetic rubbers, plastics and textiles. 1213024110.

Acetogens have several advantages to yeast: they convert all xylose (C 5 ) and glucose (C 6 ) sugars and tolerate all breakdown products of biomass; they operate in harsh environments; and they produce no CO 2 as a by-product. For the ethanol process, the acetic acid is then converted to an ester which is then hydrogenated to make ethanol.

As a result, there is a critical need to create new pathways for biofuel conversion that reduces carbon waste, prevents the loss of CO 2 emissions, and in turn, maximizes the amount of renewable fuel a conversion process yields. University of Wisconsin-Madison. The awardees are: LanzaTech, Inc.

Mascal and Nikitin have previously reported on a biphasic acid/solvent process that converts carbohydrates in biomass feedstocks into the biofuel precursor CMF. To our knowledge, this level of conversion of carbohydrate feedstocks into simple organic molecules is unrivaled in the literature. Earlier post.) —Mascal and Nikitin.

Bartley, University of Oklahoma, Norman. Goal: Identify natural genetic variation in switchgrass that correlates with lignocellulose-to-biofuel conversion qualities. This project should enhance understanding of the qualities that critically impact the conversion efficiency of lignocellulose into biofuels.
