Based on the idea that second generation biofuels beyond ethanol can create additional revenue streams for growers by increasing demands, this session looks at the recent development of new catalysts, both bio-based and conventional, that has resulted in the production of a number of new biofuels. These fuels will both supplement ethanol and allow for new fuel markets to be accessed. Participants will leave with a firm understanding of the cutting edge technology that will allow growers to take advantage of the four billion ton mandate for advanced biofuels contained in RFSII.
