(Englewood, CO) up to $1,780,862: to develop a yeast fermentation organism that can cost-effectively convert cellulosic-derived sugars into isobutanol, a second-generation biofuel/biobased product. The self-contained process uses minimal water and no acids or chemical additives. University of Minnesota (St. Velocys, Inc.

These fermentation processes create carbon as a byproduct, with some processes wasting more than 1/3 of this carbon as CO 2 emissions. At commercial scale, the inputs to the proposed “carbon refinery” process are carbon-free renewable energy, water, and CO 2. INvizyne Technologies, Inc.

Methane Converter to Electricity and Fuel. Bio2Electric will develop a small-scale reactor that converts natural. Conventional large-scale gasto-liquid reactors produce waste-heat, reducing the energy. convert natural gas into transportable liquids in one step. Capturing this energy would reduce both waste.
