Session: Biomass Characterization, Pretreatment and Fractionation III (2012 Annual Meeting)

Description:

This session focuses on the characterization of raw materials and their treatment through fractionation and pretreatment processing. Characterization of raw materials and their preliminary treatments are critical to developing value added products and optimizing yield for commodity products such as biofuels and commodity chemical feedstocks.
