Session: Pretreatment in Forest Biorefineries (2012 Annual Meeting)

Description:

This session is expected to address a number of issues in the feedstock, logistics and pretreatment in biorefineries from forest lignocellulosic materials. The papers will address issues such as sustainable sourcing, distribution of resources, logistical challenges in procurement of feedstock as well as in delivery to markets.
