It addresses the need to convert biocrude, a mixture of carbon-based polymers, into biofuels. For the industry to consider investing in biofuel, we need these kinds of demonstrations that show durability and flexibility of the process. This biocrude then undergoes a hydrotreating process to produce bio-derived fuels for transportation.
