SUMMARY:Wednesday Webinar: Locating Poplar Biorefineries in the PNW
DESCRIPTION:Locating poplar biorefineries in the Pacific Northwest: exploring optimal biofuel production systems\nWednesday\, September 17\, 2014 – 10am PDT\n \nTo attend register at http://breeze.wsu.edu/e4cbkpvu87t/event/registration.html \n  \nFinding the right locations for polar biorefineries is essential for making profitable biofuels.  The choice of location depends on where poplars grow best\, what the competition for the land is\, the size of the biorefinery\, and the cost of transporting poplar chips to the biorefinery. Researchers at the University of California\, Davis are evaluating potential biorefinery locations in the Pacific Northwest using the Geospatial Bioenergy System Model (GBSM). The model evaluates locations under a range of conditions including limiting poplar production to rangelands or croplands\, variations in expected poplar yields\, and different biorefinery sizes. \n  \nIn this webinar\, Nathan Parker from the University of California\, Davis will explain how a model can be used to site biorefineries that utilize poplar trees as the primary feedstock. \n  \nWhat’s covered?   \n\nOptimal biofuel production systems\nPractical applications for the GBSM\nThe best locations to establish biorefineries in the PNW\n\n  \nWhen: Wednesday\, September 17\, 2014 | 10:00am – 11:00am PDT \n  \nWho should attend? Community leaders\, Extension professionals\, researchers\, bio-industry representatives\, potential landowners/growers\, and environmental professionals \n  \nPresenters: Nathan Parker\, University of California\, Davis \n  \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). \n  \nHow to access the webinar: Please register for the webinar at http://breeze.wsu.edu/e4cbkpvu87t/event/registration.html \n  \nOn the day of the event\, you can access the webinar at http://breeze.wsu.edu/growinggreen/. \n  \nThis webinar is part of the AHB hardwood biofuels webinar series. Find the series including archived presentations online at: http://hardwoodbiofuels.org/webinars/. \n  \nWant to be notified about future webinars? \nJoin our mailing list at http://hardwoodbiofuels.org/connect-with-ahb/. \n  \nQuestions?
