The Precourt Institute for Energy, the umbrella organization for energy research and education at Stanford, will fund the following four studies: Nanostructured Polymers for High-Performance Batteries. This project explores the use of specially designed nanostructured polymers to make high-energy, low-cost, flexible and stretchable batteries.

Pyrolysis bio-oils are produced by the thermal decomposition of biomass by heating in the absence of oxygen at more than 500 °C; fast pyrolysis of biomass is much less expensive than biomass conversion technologies based on gasification or fermentation processes. In comparison, increasing the H/C eff ratio of pyrolysis oil from 0 to 1.4

This synthesis consumes only CO 2 and electricity, and is constrained only by the cost of electricity. A challenge to the economics of carbon capture at a cement plant is the relatively higher cost of capture compared to other industrial products.

To release the sugars locked into the cellulose polymers in biomass, producers use both physical and chemical methods, with physical chemical pretreatment processes followed by enzymatic hydrolysis being the most common, note Raines and Binder. Furthermore, the hydrolysate products are readily converted into ethanol by microorganisms.
