Biomass for Electricity Generation
, Energy Information Administration, U.S. Department of Energy - This paper examines issues affecting the uses of biomass for electricity generation.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Biomass Program
develops technology for conversion of biomass (plant-derived material) to valuable fuels, chemicals, materials and power, reducing dependence on foreign oil and fostering growth of biorefineries.
Topics:
Bioreactors, Biorefineries and Enzymatic Hydrolysis
Bioprocessing & Bioproducts Degree Programs
- Several American universities have begun to develop degree programs to provide students the professional engineering, chemistry, and biological science background in the expanding fields of bio-based product engineering, processing, and product development. These programs are focused on implementing new emerging ideas and technologies that are an inherent component of complex "next generation" of agricultural industries.
