Biofuel Options Expand as Science Taps New Sources
Scientists are making progress in developing biofuels with a range of methods and an assortment of feedstocks, according to the US Department of Energy.
Biofuel Crop Diversity Adds Value
Diverse biofuel plantings such as native prairie attract more beneficial insects than do single crops such as corn, Michigan State University scientists find.
Microbes Produce Fuels Directly from Biomass
A collaboration led by researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI) has developed a microbe that can produce an advanced biofuel directly from biomass.
Sustainable Production of Biofuels in Australia
Sustainability is essential for the long term survival and growth of the Australian biofuels industry, writes TheBioenergySite senior editor, Chris Harris.
USDA Scientists, Cooperators Sequence Soy Genome
Foundation research that has been successful in sequencing most of the soy genome will help improve soybeans and other legumes.
World Agricultural Supply And Demand Estimates
According to the latest World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates from the USDA's World Agricultural Outlook Board (WOAB), US wheat stocks for 2009/10 expected to be higher this month along with coarse grains.
Microbubbles Win Awards
A paper about the design of an air-lift loop bioreactor, which exploits a recent patent by two of the co-authors (Zimmerman and Tesar, WO2008053174) for the energy-efficient generation of microbubbles and revolutionising the potential production of biofuels,...
Grinnell Area Petroleum Replacement Initiative
On-farm biofuel production can offer significant opportunities for small farmers to reduce their “carbon footprint” and add value to their produce by partnering with local restaurants and recycling waste oil into biodiesel for on-farm use, according...
Biofuels 2010: Spotting the Next Wave
The Prometheus Institute has turned from solar energy to biofuels in a new study by Joshua Kagan and Travis Bradford that gives an economic analysis of all current and proposed generations of biofuels. The report charts a clear path forward for future...
World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates - December 2009
US Oilseed production is rising and soybeab exports have increased according to the latest World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates from the USDA.
How Algae Makes Surplus Light Energy Harmless
Light is of vital importance. However, excessive sunbathing causes sunburn - and not only in people and animals. Intensive exposure to sunlight can be harmful for plants, too, according to Dr. Christina Heimken at the Westfaelische Wilhelms-Universität...
Feedstock and Biodiesel Characteristics Report
A project to produce biodiesel from a wide variety of feedstocks and to provide the characteristics of both the feedstock and biodiesel has shown a wide variety of fuel properties for different feedstocks, writes TheBioenergySite senior editor, Chris...
CSL Sequences for Future Biofuels
Aaron Liepman's lab is part of a United States Department of Agriculture project that could someday lead to more efficient production of everything from biofuels to beer, writes Amy E. Whitesall at Eastern Michigan University.
Environmental Issues Control Slaughter Production
When the Danish Crown slaughterhouse in Horsens opened its doors in May 2005, it was not only one of the largest and most modern meat processing plants in the world, but also one of the most environmentally friendly, writes TheBioenergySite, senior editor...
Biofuels, Biosecurity and Seafood Safety
Research being carried out at the Cawthron Institute in New Zealand is improving knowledge of how algae impact food safety issues in shellfish, and how they can be put to good use for biofuel production, Danette Olsen explains in an article published...
