The experimentally validated simulation toolkit will be generalized to aid in optimizing and de-risking biomass conversion processes that use these common feed handling and reactor feeding units. The toolkit will also provide correlations to adjust optimal operating conditions based on feedstock parameters.

Conversions are mostly for the Prius, with a few for the Ford Escape/Mercury Mariner hybrid SUVs. At that point, we expect the aftermarket companies prices to have come down sufficiently so that their conversions will be attractive to owners of hundreds of thousands of hybrids already on the road. So far, most start as hybrids.

From Utah and NYIT to Lucasfilm As a doctoral student studying computer science at the University of Utah , in Salt Lake City, Catmull developed the principle of texture mapping, a method for adding complexity to a computer-generated surface. The development of the software that would eventually become RenderMan started long before.

“Public policy implementation is hard even if everyone supports a policy,” says University of Michigan professor emeritus John Leslie King , who has studied policy management and administration for decades. Public opposition to wind turbine projects is growing in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio as well.

Partnering with Alcoa, Duke Energy, Google.org, Johnson Controls Indiana startup plans to unveil vehicle May 2009 at EVS-24 in Norway; mass production in 2012. Several after-market companies have done PHEV conversions of the Ford Escape hybrid and one has done a retrofit of the F-150 pickup -- see Where PHEVs Are and ICE-Conversions.)
