275 Biological Conversions and Processes for Renewable Feedstocks

Tuesday, November 15, 2016: 8:30 AM - 11:00 AM
Union Square 19 & 20 (Hilton San Francisco Union Square)
Description:
Explore advances in biological conversions and processes for renewable feedstocks. Topics may include production of biofuels and chemicals from biomass and other renewable sources through biochemical and hybrid biochemical-thermochemical conversion pathways. Favor papers demonstrating the sound application of core scientific and engineering principles.
