SUMMARY:Wednesday Webinar - Converting hybrid poplar to biofuels and biochemicals: feedstock properties and conversion techniques
DESCRIPTION:AHB Wednesday Webinar\nand \nNational Bioenergy Day Event \nConverting hybrid poplar to biofuels and biochemicals: feedstock properties and conversion techniques\nOctober 21\, 2015 | 11:30am PDT \nRegister  \nWoody biomass can be converted into a variety of biofuels and biochemical. Researchers at the University of Washington are fine-tuning the process to convert hybrid poplars into acetic acid\, ethanol\, jet fuel\, and other products. This webinar will take a step-by-step look at how lignocellulosic biomass is converted to chemicals then biofuels. \nTopics will include:  \n\nThermochemical fractionation of biomass to polymers\nEnzymatic hydrolysis of polymers and fermentation of sugars to biochemicals\nCatalytic conversion of ethanol to hydrocarbon fuels.\n\nWhen: Wednesday\, October 21\, 2015 | 11:30pm – 12:30pm Pacific Time \nWho Should Attend: Researchers\, environmental professionals\, students\, land managers\, bio-industry representatives\, Extension professionals\, and community leaders. \nPresenters: Renata Bura and Ferando Resende from the University of Washington \nSponsored by:   Washington State University Extension with funding from Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) Competitive Grant no. 2011-68005-30407 from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA). \nHow to access the webinar:  \nPlease register for the webinar at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Wn7yA4yYDzIRUbdCKvb7n-F2gnZUJn9lCXeGiF0gAeg/viewform?usp=send_form \nOn the day of the event\, you can access the webinar at http://breeze.wsu.edu/growinggreen/. \nThis webinar is part of the AHB Hardwood Biofuels Webinar Series.
