Our recent awardees are contributing to research on electric vehicle charging infrastructure, pavement performance, highway traffic management, ridehailing, and disaster modeling!
This research will study the effectiveness of Low Carbon Fuel Standard policy, focusing on rack biodiesel and renewable diesel prices to estimate the extent to which suppliers pass through costs downstream
In this white paper, the authors study pass-through of implicit taxes and subsidies, introduced by federal and state policies, to a variety of diesel and soy biodiesel fuel prices in the context of the U.S. diesel sector, focusing on fossil diesel and soy biodiesel.
The overall goal of this work is to maximize total valorization of the glucan, xylan, and lignin found in a woody lignocellulosic biomass by understanding and advancing CELF pretreatment combined with downstream consolidated bioprocessing for the production of biofuels.
This thesis reports on understanding factors that influence the performance of Co-solvent Enhanced Lignocellulosic Fractionation (CELF) pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass with subsequent consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) to maximize product yields at low process severity.
