Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) would utilize DOE and cost share funding to improve on and scale-up biological hydrogen production. This project would focus on using starch as a substrate and would enhance biohydrogen generation rates as well as decrease production costs. All proposed project activities would occur within existing laboratories located on the campuses of Virginia Tech and the University of Georgia.
