Bioproducts to Enable Biofuels Workshop — July 16, 2015 — Westminster, CO

The Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) is hosting the one-day Bioproducts to Enable Biofuels Workshop on July 16, 2015, in Denver, Colorado. BETO is seeking to collect information from key industry, university, and national laboratory stakeholders regarding the challenges associated with the coproduction of biomass-derived chemicals and products alongside biofuels. The following are topic areas of interest that are proposed to be covered at the workshop:
- Identifying and evaluating economic drivers for producing bioproducts
- Identifying and prioritizing bioproduct targets for production from biofuel waste streams, alongside biofuels, or at standalone facilities
- Identifying research and development challenges associated with bioproduct production from biofuel waste streams, alongside biofuels, or at standalone facilities
- Identifying environmental considerations (i.e., life-cycle analysis), carbon percentage dedicated to fuels vs. products (i.e., split stream), and ideal intermediates for bioproduct production to enable biofuels.
Register for the workshop. Please see below for the workshop agenda.
