DOE Biomass Program to Host Webinar on Renewable Hydrocarbon Fuels

In Washington, the DOE Biomass Program will host a webinar “Upgrading Renewable and Sustainable Carbohydrates for the Production of High Energy Density Fuels” on December 12, 2012, from 3:30–4:30 p.m. ET. Presenters from Los Alamos National Laboratory will highlight the development of hydrocarbon fuels as renewable alternatives to petrochemical feedstocks. Researchers will discuss investigations into a potentially transformational strategy aimed at obtaining high energy density hydrocarbon fuels from non-food-based carbohydrate sources.
