DOE to award $118M to 17 projects to accelerate domestic biofuel production

Green Car Congress

Financing for novel biorefinery process systems can be a barrier to commercializing advanced biofuels, and this funding will reduce technological uncertainties and enable industry deployment. This project will demonstrate the conversion of gaseous carbon wood wastes (terpenes) to renewable Terpenes SAF blending components.

Diesel Brewing to Manufacture Cellulosic Biobutanol from Biomass and Manure With Thermochemical Process

Green Car Congress

Diesel Brewing’s process gasifies wood wastes, agricultural residues and manure into a syngas that is cleaned and fed into a catalytic reactor and purification system to generate a suite of alcohols containing butanol, ethanol and methanol. We don’t want to merely make electric power from these waste products.

Xerox Parc’s Engineers on How They Invented the Future—and How Xerox Lost It

Cars That Think

The ideas developed at PARC found their way into a number of commercial products, companies, and publications, shown here as leafy branches. What an ideal concept that would be for Xerox. As for the future impact of PARC research—the sky’s the limit. The originator of that phrase is unclear. McColough has credited his speech writer.
