million for five projects to develop advanced biofuels and bioproducts that will help drive down the cost of producing gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel from biomass. Fractional collection of the fuel product allows for the different fractions to be used as blend-stock for gasoline, diesel, or jet fuel. Earlier post.).

Converting a corn ethanol plant to produce biobutanol requires changes to the fermentation step (mainly a new microorganism) and to alcohol recovery from the fermentation. ASTM has issued a new standard— ASTM D7862-13 —covering butanol intended to be blended with gasoline at 1-12.5 of the hydrocarbon gasoline.
