Session: Fundamentals of Biomass Utilization (2012 Annual Meeting)

Description:

We accept experimental, theoretical, and computational contributions associated with biomass utilization. Relevant topics include (but not limited) to: (a): uses of biomass for energy production (b): uses of biomass in the production of chemicals and biofuels (c): uses of biomass in hydrogen production and carbon sequestration
